Abstract: This disclosure describes a system including nodes communicating according to a relaxed, agent-centric distributed hash table. The system includes a requesting node requesting a value from a target node. The requesting node is associated with a store radius and a query radius based on an agent location of the requesting node. The store radius indicates one or more peer nodes wherein the requesting node has knowledge about the storage content of these peer nodes. The query radius indicates one or more peer nodes wherein the requesting node has connection with these peer nodes.
