Description	M-Chord is a distributed data structure for similarity searching. The system uses the paradigm of structured peer-to-peer networks. The similarity searching is based on the data-model of a general metric space. M-Chord maps the data space to a one dimensional number domain and uses the Chord or Skip Graphs navigation algorithm to build the architecture of the system.
