Topic: Fenfire's storage model and Peer-to-Peer

Our presentation will include the following things:

1. Fenfire storage model
 -blocks
 -immutable byte sequences (any change -> new block)
 -globally unique identifiers
 -benefits and objectives (associations between data etc.)
 -Storm and Alph modules, xanalogical model

2. Peer-to-Peer
 -motivation (location transparency etc.)
 -objectives (find data from global data repository etc.)
 -urn-5: concept -> data mapping
 -urn-5 and block IDs: semantic-free, location independent (next generation     
  Reference Resolution Services (DNS) ?)
 -current p2p schemes
 -currently, what is the best scheme for Fenfire (and why) (tightly structured  
  
 systems, similarity of storm<->xu-model<->tightly structured systems ->  
 globally unique identifiers)
 
3. Open problems
 -security issues 
 -not only the problems of Fenfire

4. Future work
 -transclusions and xu-links from p2p
 -prototype

5. Published/sumbitted papers regarding this topic
