Abstract: In this paper, we present C², a new overlay network based on CAN and Chord. It is primarily designed for a dynamic environment in which peers join and depart the network frequently. For an n-peers C² system, each peer maintains only about O(log n) of other peers' information, and achieves routing within O(log n) hops. For each peer's joining or departure, C can, in high probability, update the routing tables with no more than O(log n) messages. What distinguishes C² from many other peer-to-peer data sharing systems is its low computation cost and its high routing efficiency in a dynamic network. Even in the case that a considerable number of peers fail simultaneously, i.e., several other peers' routing tables are out of date, the average number of hops for successful routing remains acceptable.
