+* Simulation
+The simulation library is a really simple library to locally
+run serveral instances of P2PRC to test the functionality
+of sending information through the network and particularly
+the Node discovery mechanism. There are current 5 commands
+which can be used as shown below:

+** Command
+- ***P2PRC instances "number of instances"*** : Starts p2prc processes
+  based on the number of number instances provided. This includes
+  creating temporary folders with independent IPTables.   
+- ***Start all instances "number of instances"***: Starts the P2PRC instances
+  created. This function enters into the instance directory and runs
+  ```p2prc -s &``` with a delay for approximately 3 seconds. This allows
+  each independent created node to learn about each other.
+- ***IP Tables after Started number of instances"***: Prints the IPTable of
+  each independant node.
+- ***Remove all test files***: Removes all test files created which needed for
+  testing the generated P2PRC instances. 
+- ***Kill all instances***: Kills all the background P2PRC instances created. 

+** Sample bash instructions
+#+begin_src bash
+# Unset default P2PRC env path
+unset P2PRC

+# Run with 2 nodes
+P2PRC_instances 3

+# Start instances
+Start_all_instances 3

+
+* 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:Docs/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.
+
+*** Client mode
+:PROPERTIES:
+:CUSTOM_ID: client-mode
+:END:
+- Call =/FRPPort=
+
+#+begin_example
+http://<turn server ip>:<server port no>/FRPport
+#+end_example
+
+- Call the TURN server in the following manner. The following is a
+  sample code snippet below.
+
+#+begin_src go
+import (

+)
+
+func main() {
+  serverPort, err := frp.GetFRPServerPort("http://" + <lowestLatencyIpAddress.Ipv4> + ":" + lowestLatencyIpAddress.ServerPort)
+   if err != nil {
+    return nil, err
+   }
+   // 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>)
+   if err != nil {
+     return nil, err
+   }
+}
+#+end_src

+* Language Bindings

+* Config Implementation
+:PROPERTIES:
+:CUSTOM_ID: config-implementation
+:END:
+The configuration module is responsible to store basic information of
+absolute paths of files being called in the Go code. In a full-fledged
+Cli the configuration file can be found in the directory /etc/ and from
+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.

+This is a fun expirement for anyone to try to quickly run a server and
+quickly do a map port and domain name mapping in a single command.
+
+*** 1. Find a program you want to run
+       Let's try to setup a really easy program (Let's do with Linkwarden
+       with docker compose :) ). This is under the assumption you have docker
+       compose installed on your local machine.
+       
+**** Let's run Linkwarden using docker compose and P2PRC
+       [[https://docs.linkwarden.app/self-hosting/installation][Installation instructions]]:
+       #+BEGIN_SRC
+mkdir linkwarden && cd linkwarden
+curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/linkwarden/linkwarden/refs/heads/main/docker-compose.yml
+curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/linkwarden/linkwarden/refs/heads/main/.env.sample -o ".env"
+       #+END_SRC
+
+       Environment configuration
+       #+BEGIN_SRC
+vim .env
+
+# Change values
+NEXTAUTH_URL=https://<DOMAIN NAME>/api/v1/auth
+NEXTAUTH_SECRET=VERY_SENSITIVE_SECRET
+POSTGRES_PASSWORD=CUSTOM_POSTGRES_PASSWORD
+       #+END_SRC
+       Run linkwarden!
+       #+BEGIN_SRC
+docker compose up
+       #+END_SRC
+
+       If setup correctly linkwarden should
+       be running.
+       Local link: http://localhost:3000
+
+     Time to setup P2PRC
+     [[https://p2prc.akilan.io/Docs/#build-project-and-install-project][Installation Instructions]]
+
+     Run p2prc as a background
+      #+BEGIN_SRC
+p2prc -s &
+      #+END_SRC
+
+     Run map port and domain mapping
+     #+BEGIN_SRC
+p2prc --mp 3000 --dn <DOMAIN NAME>
+     #+END_SRC
+
+     Sample response
+     #+BEGIN_SRC
+ {
+	"IPAddress": "217.76.63.222",
+	"PortNo": "61582",
+	"EntireAddress": "217.76.63.222:61582"
+}
+     #+END_SRC
+
+     Add DNS entry
+     #+BEGIN_SRC
+A entry 217.76.63.222
+     #+END_SRC
+
+     Your done now just head to the DOMAIN NAME you added.
+     ex: https://linkwarden.akilan.io

+
+
+* 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.
