Epidemic protocols proved to be very efficient solutions for supporting
dynamic and complex information diffusion in highly dis- tributed computing
infrastructures, like P2P environments. They are useful bricks for building and
maintaining virtual network topologies, in the form of overlay networks as well
as to support pervasive diffusion of information when it is injected into the
network. This paper proposes a simple architecture exploiting the features of
epidemic approaches to foster a collaborative percolation of information
between computing nodes belonging to the network aimed at building a system
that groups similar users and spread useful information among them.Comment: 8 pages, 2 figure
