 For Fenfire's needs for \emph{locating} data, an important advantage of the 
 tightly structured approach over the loosely structured approach is that both 
tightly 
 structured systems and Fenfire use similar methods for identifying data in the

 Another key feature of tightly structured overlays is that they are able
