Key based routing
Key based routing (KBR) is a lookup method used in conjunction with distributed hash tables (DHTs). While DHTs provide a method to find a host responsible for a certain piece of data, KBR provides a method to find the closest host for that data, according to some defined metric. This may not necessarily be defined as physical distance, but rather the number of network hops. KBR improves the efficiency of decentralized information retrieval in peer-to-peer networks.
