Claim 16:
17. A system for self-addressed network communication, the system comprising:
a first apparatus comprising a first processor; and
a second apparatus communicably connected to the first apparatus and comprising a second processor,
wherein the first apparatus generates a first public key of the first apparatus based on a first private key of the first apparatus, generates a first hash value based on the first public key and a predetermined hash function, determines a first network address of the first apparatus based on the first hash value, and provides the first public key to the second apparatus,
wherein the second apparatus generates a second public key of the second apparatus based on a second private key of the second apparatus, generates a second hash value based on the second public key and the predetermined hash function, determines a second network address of the second apparatus based on the second hash value, and provides the second public key to the first apparatus,
wherein the first apparatus receives the second public key from the second apparatus, generates the second hash value based on the second public key and the predetermined hash function, and determines the second network address based on the second hash value, the first apparatus being thereby enabled to communicate to the second apparatus at the second network address through a communication network, and
wherein the second apparatus receives the first public key from the first apparatus, generates the first hash value based on the first public key and the predetermined hash function, and determines the first network address based on the first hash value, the second apparatus being thereby enabled to communicate to the first apparatus at the first network address through the communication network.
