This inspired to think about how overlay networks might help libraries. The article mentioned that "Akamai Technologies manages an overlay network that provides reliable, efficient content delivery."
How might an overlay network help libraries?
On a search using PittCat's Summon, I found a couple articles that seem really good. One is called SDQE: towards automatic semantic query optimization in P2P systems, and this describes a new system employed to retrieve information embedded in overlay networks.
Another competing paper talks about a similar system, but this time, with an emphasis on the semantic Web, p2pDating: Real life inspired semantic overlay networks for Web search.
Finally, one last paper talks about Pepper, a P2P network specifically designed to search and browse digital libraries.
Hopefully, one day I'll be tech savvy enough to dig and comprehend what these papers are saying =) .
