Abstract: Applying ontology to describe resource metadata richly in the peer-to-peer environment has become current research trend. In this semantic peer-to-peer environment, indexing semantic element of resource description to support efficient resource location is a difficult and challenging problem. This paper provided a hybrid indexing architecture, which combines local indexing and global indexing. It uses community strategy and semantic routing strategy to organize key layer metadata element and uses DHT (distributed hash table) to index extensional layer metadata element. Compared with related system, this approach is more efficient in resource location and more scalable.

Key words: Peer-to-peer (P2P), Ontology, Metadata, Resource indexing
