Patent

CA 2447390

A method, program and system for distributing information in a computer network are provided. The invention comprises dividing an electronic file into a plurality of pieces and then downloading a file piece to the first client machine to request that file piece. If a second client machine requests the same file piece, the request is redirected to the first client. The first client then functions as a peer-to-peer server and downloads the requested file piece to the second client.

La présente invention concerne un procédé, un programme et un système pour distribuer des informations sur un réseau d'ordinateurs. Ce procédé consiste à diviser un fichier électronique en plusieurs parties, puis à télécharger une partie de fichier sur la machine d'un premier client qui demande cette partie de fichier. Si une machine d'un second client demande la même partie de fichier, la requête est retransmise au premier client. Le premier client fonctionne ensuite comme un serveur pour entités homologues et télécharge la partie de fichier demandée au second client.
