Distributed File Transfer and Code Execution Using Chord Protocol

Usage:

To launch a node, provide an IP address and Port number as arguments:

python node.py <ip> <port>

To add a node to the Chord ring, provide the IP and Port number of a known node along with the new node's details:

python node.py <known_ip> <known_port> <ip> <port>

Features:

• Distributed Hash Table (DHT) using Chord Protocol
• Seamless Node Joining and Departure
• File Transfer Between Nodes
• Remote Python Code Execution
• GUI for Node Management and Visualization

Todo:

• Implement proper node departure handling.
• Enhance security for file transfer and code execution.
• Improve GUI interactivity and real-time updates.

Done:

• Node Initialization
• Join and Leave Mechanisms
• Finger Table Management
• File Transfer
• Secure Code Execution
• GUI for Visualization
