Distributed hash tables use a more structured key-based routing in order to attain both the decentralization of Freenet and Gnutella, and the efficiency and guaranteed results of Napster. One drawback is that, like Freenet, DHTs only directly support exact-match search, rather than keyword search, although Freenet's [[routing algorithm]] can be generalized to any key type where a closeness operation can be defined.<ref>{{citation |chapter-url=https://freenetproject.org/papers/ddisrs.pdf |title=A Distributed Decentralized Information Storage and Retrieval System |chapter=Section 5.2.2 |access-date=2012-01-10 |archive-date=2012-03-16 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120316102156/https://freenetproject.org/papers/ddisrs.pdf |url-status=dead }}</ref>

A project called the Infrastructure for Resilient Internet Systems (Iris) was funded by a $12 million grant from the United States [[National Science Foundation]] in 2002.<ref>{{Cite news |title= New P2P network funded by US government |author= David Cohen |work= New Scientist |date= October 1, 2002 |url= https://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn2861 |access-date= November 10, 2013 |archive-date= April 6, 2008 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20080406123915/http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn2861 |url-status= live }}</ref>
