Abstract

See full text

A first data item is split into one or more parts. A corresponding name is determined for each of the one or more parts, each part name being determined using a message digest function or hash function of all of the data in the corresponding part. A second file is created to include the part names of the one or more parts of the first data item. Each of the one or more parts is caused to be distributed to at least one location in a computer network. In response to a request for the first data item, the second file is provided. The name of the second file may be published as a name for the first data item. The network may be a peer-to-peer network.
