Introduction
AVMon is a peer-to-peer (p2p) overlay designed to monitor the availability of the hosts in the system, intended to be used by large-scale distributed applications. AVMon is self-organizing, and its design deals with selfish and colluding hosts that might want to (mis-)report higher than real availability.
The code is published as a C library under the LGPL.
