Primitives of transport service assume asymmetry between the two end points during connection establishment, one end (server) ex
ecutes LISTEN while the other end (client) executes CONNECT. However, in peer to peer applications such file sharing systems, e.g. BitTorrent, all end points are peers. There is no server or client functionality. How can transport service primitives may be used to build such peer to peer applications?
