+
+* Introduction
+:PROPERTIES:
+:CUSTOM_ID: chapter1-introduction
+:END:
+This project focuses on creating a framework for running heavy computational tasks that a regular 
+computer cannot handle easily. These tasks may include graphically demanding video games, rendering 
+3D animations, and performing complex protein folding simulations. The major focus of this project 
+is not on financial incentives but rather on building a robust and efficient peer-to-peer (P2P) 
+network to decentralise task execution and increase the computational bandwidth available for 
+such tasks.
+
+The P2PRC framework serves as a foundation for decentralised rendering and computation, 
+providing insights into how tasks can be distributed efficiently across a network of peers. 
+Leveraging the P2PRC approach, this project extends its capabilities to handle a 
+wider range of computationally intensive tasks.
+
+** Motivation
+:PROPERTIES:
+:CUSTOM_ID: motivation
+:END:
+Many of the users rely on our PC / Laptop or servers that belong to a
+server farm to run heavy tasks and with the demand of high creativity
+requires higher computing power. Buying a powerful computer every few
+years to run a bunch of heavy tasks which are not executed as frequently
+to reap the benefits can be inefficient utilization of hardware. On the
+other end, renting servers to run these heavy tasks can be really
+useful. Ethically speaking this is leading to monopolisation of
+computing power similar to what is happening in the web server area. By
+using peer to peer principles it is possible to remove the
+monopolisation factor and increase the bandwidth between the client and
+server.

+* P2P Module Implementation
+:PROPERTIES:
+:CUSTOM_ID: p2p-module-implementation
+:END:
+The P2P module is for managing server information within the network. 
+It maintains and updates the IP table, ensuring accuracy by preventing duplicates and removing 
+entries for unreachable servers. Furthermore, the module conducts speed tests on the listed servers 
+to determine upload and download speeds. This valuable information enables users to identify nearby 
+servers with optimal performance, enhancing their overall network experience.
+
+#+caption: UML diagram of P2P module
+[[file:./images/p2pmoduleArch.png]
+
+The peer to peer implementation was built from scratch. This is because
+other peer to peer libraries were on the implementation of the
+Distributed hash table. At the current moment all those heavy features
+are not needed because the objective is to search and list all possible
+servers available. The limitation being that to be a part of the network
+the user has to know at least 1 server. The advantage of building from
+scratch makes the module super light and possibility for custom
+functions and structs. The sub topics below will mention the
+implementations of each functionality in depth.
+
+** IP Table
+:PROPERTIES:
+:CUSTOM_ID: ip-table
+:END:
+The ip table file is a json as the format with a list of servers ip
+addresses, latencies, downloads and uploads speeds. The functions
+implemented include read file, write file and remove duplicate IP
+addresses. The remove duplicate IP address function exists because
+sometimes servers IP tables can have the same ip addresses as what the
+client has. The path of the IP table json file is received from the
+configuration module.
+
+#+begin_src json
+{
+  "ip_address": [
+    {
+			"Name": "<hostname of the machine>",
+			"MachineUsername": "<machine username>",
+			"IPV4": "<ipv4 address>",
+			"IPV6": "<ipv6 address (Not used)>",
+			"Latency": <latency to the server>,
+			"Download": <download speed (Not used)>,
+			"Upload": <upload speed (Not used)>,
+			"ServerPort": "<server port no>",
+			"BareMetalSSHPort": "<Baremetal ssh port no>",
+			"NAT": "<boolean representing if the node is behind NAT or not>",
+			"EscapeImplementation": "<NAT traversal implementation>",
+			"ProxyServer": "<If the node listed is acting as a proxy server>",
+			"UnSafeMode": <Unsafe mode if turned on will allow all nodes in the network public keys to be 
+      added to that particular node>",
+			"PublicKey": "<Public key of that particular node>",
+			"CustomInformation": "<custom information passed in through all the nodes in the network>"
+		}
+  ]
+}
+#+end_src
+
+*** Latency
+:PROPERTIES:
+:CUSTOM_ID: latency
+:END:
+The latency is measured in milliseconds. The route /server_info is
+called from the server and time it takes to provide a json response is
+recorded.
+
+** NAT Traversal
+:PROPERTIES:
+:CUSTOM_ID: nat-traversal
+:END:
+P2PRC currently supports TURN for NAT traversal.
+
+** TURN
+:PROPERTIES:
+:CUSTOM_ID: turn
+:END:
+The current TURN implementation used is FRP. The TURN server is also
+required when a P2PRC node is acting as a Server. The TURN server is
+determined based on the Node with the least amount of latency based on
+the Nodes available on the IPTable. Once a TURN server is determined
+there are 2 actions performed. The first one is =/FRPPort= to the TURN
+server to receive a port which is used to generate the external port
+from the TURN server. The flow below describes the workflow.

+   }
+   // Create 1 second delay to allow FRP server to start
+   time.Sleep(1 * time.Second)
+   // Starts FRP as a client with
+   proxyPort, err := frp.StartFRPClientForServer(<lowestLatencyIpAddress.Ipv4>, serverPort, <the port you want to expose externally>)

+* Config Implementation

+there points to location such as where the IP table file is located. In
+the future implementation the config file will have information such as
+number of hops and other parameters to tweak and to improve the
+effectiveness of the peer to peer network. The configuration module was
+implemented using the library Viper. The Viper library automates
+features such as searching in default paths to find out if the
+configuration file is present. If the configuration file is not present
+in the default paths then it auto generates the configuration file. The
+configurations file can be in any format. In this project the
+configuration file was generated using JSON format.

+* Ideas for future potencial features
+Consists of personal loideas for the future of P2PRC.
+At moment only has main contributors writiing to this.
+
+** To support hetrogenous set of Nodes that cannot run P2PRC
+This stems from a personal issue I have when doing research
+on [[https://github.com/CTSRD-CHERI/cheribsd][CheriBSD]] kernel. For my research I am using the ARM morello
+which is a 128bit ARMv8 processor. At the moment Go programs
+can cannot compile and run inside the CPU. This means I cannot
+run P2PRC at the moment inside the ARM morello to remotely access
+it when it's behind NAT using P2PRC. This would indeed be a common
+problem when running against various Architectures that do not
+support running P2PRC. As you will see soon this also creates
+oppurtunity space to scale faster to nodes in a local network
+and would introduce a new layer fault tolerance within a local
+network nodes.
+
+*** Assumptions:
+       - I have a Morello board that cannot run P2PRC
+       - The Morello has a local IP address (ex: 192.168.0.10)
+       - I have 2 laptops running P2PRC in that local network.
+       - This means I have 2 ways to access the Morello board: Which is to SSH
+	 into either 2 laptops and then SSH into 192.168.0.10 to gain access
+	 to the board. Wouldn't it be great to automate this whole layer and
+	 as well look into custom tasks into the hetrogenous hardware.
+*** Set of interesting possible:
+     We build a cool set possibilities before and use this to build up the implementation
+     plan.
+       - We can use P2PRC access the morello board remotely in a single command.
+       - We can use the P2PRC protocol to run servers inside the morello board via traversed
+	 node locally which can access that Node.
+       - Spin servers on node not running P2PRC using the P2PRC standard abstractions.
+       - Auto-setup P2PRC nodes with just SSH access via potencially a DSL.
+       - A neat use case for CHERI for instance would be use the architecture to run light
+	 weight hypervisors. 
+*** Implementation
+     - To use implementations similar to [[https://linux.die.net/man/1/socat][socat]] to ensure we can bind address of local
+       nodes to a node running P2PRC and the node running P2PRC can do a local map port.
+     - We are working on hardening the implementation of the --mp (Map port) to even
+       map ports to machines which remotely running P2PRC. This means of instance I
+       can issue a command to the Morello board without the morello board being in
+       my local network.
+     - We would want to implement the exsisting P2PRC public key mechanism as well so that
+       other nodes can access the Morello board who have permission access.

-  ## Introduction
-  This project aims to create a peer to peer (p2p) network, where a user can use the p2p network to act as a client (i.e sending tasks) or the server (i.e executing the tasks). A prototype application will be developed, which comes bundled with a p2p module and possible to execute docker containers or virtual environments across selected nodes.
-
-  ### Objectives
-  - Background review on peer to peer network, virtual environments, decentralized rendering tools and tools to batch any sort of tasks.
-  - Creating p2p network
-  - Server to create a containerised environment
-  - The client node to run tasks on Server containerised node -->

-  ## Installation from source
-  1. Ensure the Go compiler is installed
-     ```
-     go version
-     ```
-  3. Ensure docker is installed (Should run without sudo)
-     ```
-     docker ps
-     ```
-  3. Clone this repository
-     ```
-     git clone https://github.com/Akilan1999/p2p-rendering-computation
-     ```
-  4. Install and build the project
-     ```
-     make install
-     ```
-  - If you look closely you will get outputs such as:
-     ```
-     // Add them to your .bashrc file
-     export P2PRC=/<path>/p2p-rendering-computation
-     export PATH=/<path>/p2p-rendering-computation:${PATH}
-     ```
-
-  5. Test if it works
-     ```
-     p2prc -h
-     ```
-     or
-     ```
-     ./p2prc -h
-     ```

-
-  ## Design Architecture
-  The design architecture was inspired and based on the linux kernel design. The project is segmented into various modules. Each module is responsible for certain tasks in the project. The modules are highly dependent on each other hence the entire codebase can be considered as a huge monolithic chuck which acts as its own library
-
-  [Read more on the Design Architecture](Docs/DesignArchtectureIntro.md)
-
-  <br>
-
-  ## Implementation
-  The programming language used for this project was Golang. The reason Go lang was chosen was because it is a compiled language. The entire codebase is just a single binary file. When distributing to other linux distributing the only requirement would be the binary file to run the code. It is easy to write independant modules and be monolithic at the sametime using Go. Using Go.mod makes it very easy to handle external libraries and modularise code. The go.mod name for the project is git.sr.ht/~akilan1999/p2p-rendering-computation.
