peer-to-peer

A corporate jargon term for individual interactions on the same culture/power/economic/social level. Originally applied to computer networking on a computer level as opposed to a computer-server level.

Occasionally abbreviated as "P2P" and parallels "B2B" (business to business) usually on a separate, lower power level.

When the "Clu" and 'programs' battled the "Master Control Program" in the film Tron, the programs' collaboration is an example of peer-to-peer interaction.

Peers

Peer comes from the Latin par which means equal. When you are on par with someone, you are their peer. Anyone of the same spesicis can be ones peers subjectivly. Anything that can be noticed to everyone and everythingorganic can be ones peers objectivly as they are all here with you. Age, Sex, Location, Wealth and so on are more subjective ways to use categorize ones peers.
