1. The mechanism used by a node to search for resources among other nodes of the network. A user at a node provides a search query containing a set of keywords corresponding to the resource being searched for. A resource discovery protocol is then used to forward the search query to other nodes and search for the resource on those nodes. When a resource is located at a node, a success message is sent to the node that originated the search query. 2.
