Description: One of the major weaknesses of existing peer-to-peer
(P2P) networks is that their overlay structures do not correlate to
the physical underlying network topology. As a result, the
overlays waste network resources and introduce excessive end-toend
latency for P2P applications. In this paper, we present a new
model for topology-aware overlay formation. Firstly, it clusters
nodes that are close to each other in terms of network latency and
network membership. Secondly, it discovers the underlying
topology between clusters to form an efficient overlay. The model
is self-organising and distributed without the need of global
knowledge
