The present invention is related to computer data handling, more particularly rapid transmission of large files across a network. It is more particularly related to downloading large files across a peer-to-peer network. By breaking up a large file into smaller data packets and storing in random but known locations, both the storage process and the retrieval process may be greatly speeded up, because the data packets are processed in parallel through different communications ports. Hash codes are used to eliminate redundant file storage and different servers can be used to store and transmit different data packets. A unique file identifier is associated with each data packet allowing for the individual data packets to be catalogued and also tracked at any location within the network.
A computer implemented method in a peer-to-peer computing infrastructure for optimized file download between an requestor and a sender using parallel downloads of a plurality of data packets of desired download data from a plurality of servers, the method comprising the steps of:
A computer program product for optimized file download between an requestor and a sender using parallel downloads of a plurality of data packets of desired download data from a plurality of servers, the computer program product comprising a storage medium readable by a processing circuit and storing instructions for performing a method comprising the steps of:
A system in a peer-to-peer computing infrastructure for optimized file download between a requestor and a sender using parallel downloads of a plurality of data packets of desired download data from a plurality of servers, the computer system comprising a processor in communication with a network, wherein the processor is capable of performing a method comprising:
