Developing a sustainable peer-to-peer network infrastructure for rural areas

Abstract

The necessity of information and communication technology beggars description. But in developing world, proper ICT facilities have not been achieved yet, especially, in the rural or remote areas. In this paper, an incentive has been presented to develop a sustainable peer to peer network for those areas. The connected peers will be able to share important information shared without the requirement of any special central server. For better communication and access to internet, directory center can be connected to broadband (if available) or mobile network based internet. Since energy crisis is a major problem in developing countries, alternative power system with renewable sources has been proposed. The deployment of energy-efficient ICT with the optimization of renewable energy also sets the way towards green growth and sustainable development.
