| PSync: Partial/Full Sync Library based on BF and IBF |
| ==================================================== |
| PSync is a C++ library for name synchronization that implements the `PSync protocol |
| <https://named-data.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/scalable_name-based_data_synchronization.pdf>`__. |
| It uses Invertible Bloom Lookup Table (IBLT), also known as Invertible Bloom Filter (IBF), |
| to represent the state of a producer in partial sync mode and the state of a node in full |
| sync mode. An IBF is a compact data structure where difference of two IBFs can be computed |
| efficiently. In partial sync, PSync uses a Bloom Filter to represent the subscription of |
| PSync uses the `ndn-cxx <https://github.com/named-data/ndn-cxx>`__ library. |
