Named for the file-sharing application used, the data in the can-o-sleep
database were collected from a campus network for P2P file sharing
based on the OpenNap server. The data consist of records of all the
mp3 files shared by and transferred between users during an 81-day
period between February 28, 2003 and May 21, 2003. Users were uniquely
identified by an anonymous MD5 hash. No personal information was
collected during this study and users gave explicit consent to
anonymous collection of the data.
See
Creating
Social Networks to Improve Peer-to-Peer Networking for a
description of using knowledge discovery techniques on this data to
guide the creation of an efficient overlay network for peer-to-peer
file sharing.
See the README for additional
information on the can-o-sleep database.
