### Terms

#### Protocol
A set of rules describing how to communicate

#### Hash Function
A way of generating a unique name for a piece of data

#### MFS

Mutable filesystem (see also: FUSE)

#### Random Walk

Querying the DHT for random keys, in order to discover new peers and fill gaps in keyspace

#### TCP
TCP is a protocol that is used for a huge portion of web traffic. It guarantees that information arrives entirely and in order.

#### UDP

#### unixfs

Merkle-dag based data structures for representing unix files, directories, and symlinks
