3538·updated May 12, 2026candidate
Peer-to-peer communication, the communications that travel from one user's computer to another user's computer without being stored for later access on a server. E-mail is not a P2P communication since it travels from the sender to a server, and is retrieved by the recipient from the server. On-line chat, however, is a P2P communication since messages travel directly from one user to another.
