Definition. "A Distributed Hash Table (DHT) is a distributed and often decentralized mechanism for associating Hash values (keys) with some kind of content. Participants in the DHT each store a small section of the contents of the hashtable. The main advantage of DHTs are their scalability." ( http://www.infoanarchy.org/en/Distributed_hash_table )

Network-centric warfare: "Power To The Edge's radical ideas had been under investigation by the Pentagon since at least 2001. In UIAW, the concept of peer-to-peer activity combined with more traditional hierarchical flow of data in the network had been introduced.Shortly thereafter, the Pentagon began investing in peer-to-peer research, telling sof...
Power to the Edge advocates the following: 1. Achieving situational awareness rather than creating a single operational picture 1. Self-synchronizing operations instead of autonomous operations 1. Information Pull rather than Broadcast Information Push 1. Collaborative efforts rather than individual efforts 1. Communities of Interest (COIs) rather ...
Interoperability
page 138 Interoperability, the ability to work together, needs to simultaneously occur at a number of levels to enable entities to communicate, share information, and collaborate with one another. The degree to which forces are interoperable directly affects their ability to conduct network-centric operations. Interoperability must be present in each of the four domains: physical, information, cognitive, and social.
Developing Situational Awareness
page 139 LEVELS OF INTEROPERABILITY : Interoperability can be understood as a spectrum of connectedness that ranges from unconnected, isolated entities to fully interactive, sharing enterprises.
The SKDB project simplifies the process of searching for free hardware designs, comparing part compatibility, building lists of materials and components, and determining where to get them by organizing them into packages. The SKDB project is like apt-get (in Debian) or Maven (in Java), but for real stuff.
PatternDynamics is a simple tool that can be learned by anyone to overcome the challenges posed by complex systems–at any scale. Here’s how it works: The key to complexity is systems thinking; The key to systems thinking is Patterns; and, The key to using Patterns is to form them into a language.
Ecocracy aims at sustainable systems which can support and bring well being to human species and other species in the millennia to come. In this interconnected and co-dependent world of ours, the notion of Democracy must take on a new meaning.
