The Deal
I have an idea for routing in a publish/subscribe network using fractal decomposition. Clients subscribe to spans of bits a distance and length from the beginning of the string. Overlay networks are created ad hoc in such a way as to optimize efficiency of coverage.

For idempotent information, the network acts as a distributed cache ala. Freenet. For dynamic information, it is a message passing architecture ala. XMPP. From the client side it is a distributed hash table.

This is the bottom half of an alternative OSI model which, if adopted, would potentially make this a seminal paper. Any interested candidate researchers should add their name and, if available, a link to their qualifications.
