Certain embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method and an apparatus for managing and optimizing service discovery in a peer-to-peer (P 2 P) wireless network. Nodes of the P 2 P network advertise their capabilities to their peers in the form of services. Efficient propagation and management of node's services to other nodes is proposed in the present disclosure. An embodiment relates in particular to a method for wireless node in a peer-to-peer (P 2 P) network, comprising: receiving one or more advertisements of services offered by one or more other wireless nodes in the P 2 P network; generating a prioritized list of services, based on one or more services offered by the wireless node and services listed in the received advertisements of services; and distributing the prioritized list of services to other wireless nodes in the P 2 P network. |
