What does the term anonymous communication stand for ?
One of the main problems in the network today is how to safely transmit a
message to a friend or business associate without being "watched" or
"spied on".
Our project gives an answer to this problem when dealing with a network of
agents trying to communicate with one another anonymously. In this site you will
find an explanation of the project to make a network of anonymous communication,
the mathematical proof on which the project stands on and most importantly the
project codes, documents and zips. So you can join an anonymous network or
create one yourself!

Graphical presentation of the network problem
We'll give a more graphical view of a communication network by referring to
the agents as vertices in a graph and the edges of the graph will be the
communication lines and other computers that are not agents (routers for
example).
If we consider an external viewer on this graph to be our "bad
opponent" then we'll win by making him not able to read our messages or
find out who we are sending the message to. It's easy to get the first part (not
be able to read our messages) if we use some sort of encryption, so except the
recipient we can be sure that no one else is reading the message. The second
part though, is a bit harder.
