However, this is not true for uTorrent. I tried installing uTorrent 3.1.2 in a completely clean virtual machine with only bare Windows XP installed and making it open a magnet link without any trackers inside it (here's the link, if you're interested) and uTorrent successfully found some peers in just a few minutes. Therefore, the question is, how does uTorrent fill (or initialize) it's DHT routing table on it's first launch?
We just wanted to check and see if A) this is an acceptable way to move forward and B) if anyone has any further ideas on how we could separate the amplicons so we can do further (ie. longitudinal and ANCOM) analyses. Any and all input would be appreciated. Thank you!
One notable piece of information that this file does not include, is the number of hits each sequence gets (i.e. count). This does appear to be in the file S001_ * by_primer.txt, with the caveat that the counts seem to be for particular genus/species not sequence. (For instance in the screen pic above, you can see there are 4 sequences mapped to Collinsella aerofaciens. I think in the S001 *_by_primer.txt file, there would be one row for Collinsella aerofaciens and the count would be 4).
Our goal for identifying sequences (and primer sequences) from the the different V regions is that if there was some insurmountable problem in performing the consensus analysis pipeline, then we would be able to at least pick sequences from one variable region to analyze our data. And also, if we discovered that there were some better way to analyze the data then everyone could start doing it!
The routing table is subdivided into "buckets" that each cover a portion of the space. An empty table has one bucket with an ID space range of min=0, max=2^160. When a node with ID "N" is inserted into the table, it is placed within the bucket that has min
It is somewhat different from other documents regarding kademlia routing table where buckets are arranged in accordance to the bit prefix of the node id but there is another confusing thing. When we reply to the "find node" request we have to find 8 closest nodes to the requested one using XOR operation. I saw some implementations just going through each item in the routing table executing XOR operation and thus finding 8 closest items. It seems to me too CPU wasting.
I ran a simple test using numbers from 0 to 99 where I wanted to find 8 XOR closest numbers and they where in the proximity of the sought number but not right near it. Now, thinking about our buckets I guess it possible that all node ids in the bucket are the closest for a minor exception. So, for example if we take this bucket, take one from the left and one from the right and search for the XOR closest node ids we'll find what we are looking for and there is no point to go through ALL nodes in the routing table.

In both - the full, tree-like routing table implementation and the simplified BEP5-variant - each bucket can be thought of as having a CIDR-like prefix (see this SO answer) consisting of prefix bits that the bucket covers and a mask bit count.
I figure that many people simply iterate over the whole routing table because for regular nodes it will only contain a few dozen buckets at most and a DHT node does not see much traffic, so it only has to execute this operation a few times per second and if you implement this in a dense, cache-friendly datastructure then the lion's share might actually be the memory traffic and not the CPU instructions doing a few XORs and comparisons.
B is the closest bucket to T, which means that there cannot be any routing table entries closer than the relative distance 00000.... Conversely that means that the minimal distance that any entry outside of B can have is 00001.... Which means the next-closest bucket must cover T xor 00001... -> 00101110101111110[...].
A torrent file acts like a table of contents (index) that allows computers to find information through the use of a BitTorrent client. With the help of a torrent file, one can download small parts of the original file from computers that have already downloaded it. These "peers" allow for downloading of the file in addition to, or in place of, the primary server. A torrent file does not contain the content to be distributed; it only contains information about those files, such as their names, folder structure, sizes, and cryptographic hash values for verifying file integrity.
A small torrent file is created to represent a file or folder to be shared. The torrent file acts as the key to initiating downloading of the actual content. Someone interested in receiving the shared file or folder first obtains the corresponding torrent file, either by directly downloading it or by using a magnet link. The user then opens that file in a BitTorrent client, which automates the rest of the process. In order to learn the internet locations of peers who may be sharing pieces, the client connects to the trackers named in the torrent file, and/or achieves a similar result through the use of distributed hash tables. Then the client connects directly to the peers in order to request pieces and otherwise participate in a swarm. The client may also report progress to trackers, to help the tracker with its peer recommendations.
The specification recommends that nodes "should be set to the K closest nodes in the torrent generating client's routing table. Alternatively, the key could be set to a known good node such as one operated by the person generating the torrent."

BitTorrent uses a "distributed sloppy hash table" (DHT) for storingpeer contact information for "trackerless" torrents. In effect, eachpeer becomes a tracker. The protocol is based on Kademila [1] and isimplemented over UDP.
Please note the terminology used in this document to avoidconfusion. A "peer" is a client/server listening on a TCP port thatimplements the BitTorrent protocol. A "node" is a client/serverlistening on a UDP port implementing the distributed hash tableprotocol. The DHT is composed of nodes and stores the location ofpeers. BitTorrent clients include a DHT node, which is used to contactother nodes in the DHT to get the location of peers to download fromusing the BitTorrent protocol.
Each node has a globally unique identifier known as the "node ID."Node IDs are chosen at random from the same 160-bit space asBitTorrent infohashes [2]. A "distance metric" is used tocompare two node IDs or a node ID and an infohash for "closeness."Nodes must maintain a routing table containing the contact informationfor a small number of other nodes. The routing table becomes moredetailed as IDs get closer to the node's own ID. Nodes know about manyother nodes in the DHT that have IDs that are "close" to their own buthave only a handful of contacts with IDs that are very far away fromtheir own.
When a node wants to find peers for a torrent, it uses the distancemetric to compare the infohash of the torrent with the IDs of thenodes in its own routing table. It then contacts the nodes it knowsabout with IDs closest to the infohash and asks them for the contactinformation of peers currently downloading the torrent. If a contactednode knows about peers for the torrent, the peer contact informationis returned with the response. Otherwise, the contacted node mustrespond with the contact information of the nodes in its routing tablethat are closest to the infohash of the torrent. The original nodeiteratively queries nodes that are closer to the target infohash untilit cannot find any closer nodes. After the search is exhausted, theclient then inserts the peer contact information for itself onto theresponding nodes with IDs closest to the infohash of the torrent.
Every node maintains a routing table of known good nodes. The nodes inthe routing table are used as starting points for queries in theDHT. Nodes from the routing table are returned in response to queriesfrom other nodes.
Not all nodes that we learn about are equal. Some are "good" and someare not. Many nodes using the DHT are able to send queries and receiveresponses, but are not able to respond to queries from other nodes. Itis important that each node's routing table must contain only knowngood nodes. A good node is a node has responded to one of our querieswithin the last 15 minutes. A node is also good if it has everresponded to one of our queries and has sent us a query within thelast 15 minutes. After 15 minutes of inactivity, a node becomesquestionable. Nodes become bad when they fail to respond to multiplequeries in a row. Nodes that we know are good are given priority overnodes with unknown status.
