We propose Behave: a novel approach for peer-to-peer cache-oriented applications such as CDNs. Behave relies on the principle of Behavioral Locality inspired from collaborative filtering. Users that have visited similar websites in the past will have local caches that provide interesting content for one another.#R##N##R##N#Behave exploits epidemic protocols to build overlapping communities of peers with similar interests. Peers in the same one-hop community federate their cache indexes in a Behavioral cache. Extensive simulations on a real data trace show that Behave can provide zero-hop lookup latency for about 50% of the content available in a DHT-based CDN.
