Abstract :
We introduce IR-Wire, a tool for information retrieval research and education in peer-to-peer file-sharing systems. Built on top of Lime Wire´s implementation of the popular Gnutella standard, it includes functionality to collect data on queries and shared files and stores them in a way to make analyses simple. IR-Wire is designed modularly to facilitate its customization for other uses.
