PIX-Grid: A Platform for P2P Photo Exchange

The proliferation of digital camera devices (stand-alone or combined with cell phones), new protocols such as MMS and the desire of people to com-municate and share their experience call for new systems to support these needs in new Internet-scale infrastructures. In this paper we outline our plans for an Internet-scale P2P system that enables users to share (globally or only within a group) and efficiently locate photographs based on semi-automatically provided meta-information (by the devices and the user).
