Abstract

Modern computing requires efficient and dependable data transport. Current solutions like Bluetooth, SMS (Short Message Service), and Email have their restrictions on efficiency, file size, compatibility, and cost. In order to facilitate direct communication and resource sharing amongst linked devices, this research study offers a cross-platform peer-to-peer (P2P) data transmission solution that takes advantage of P2P networks' features. The system enables cost-effective and high-performance data transport by using the compute, storage, and network resources of the participating devices. Simple file sharing, adaptability, dependability, and high performance are some of the important benefits. The examination of the suggested solution is presented in this paper and includes discussion of the P2P architecture, data transfer mechanisms, performance assessment, implementation issues, security concerns, and the potential difficulties that needs to be addressed. The research intends to validate the efficacy and potential of the suggested cross-platform P2P data transfer solution, delivering better efficiency and dependability for users across various platforms, through practical investigations and comparisons with existing approaches.
