Abstract

See full text

A first node within a network group determines whether other nodes within the network group have previously downloaded software from a server. The server is outside the network group. If the software was previously downloaded to a second node within the network group, the software is transferred from the second node to the first node, avoiding the need to download the software directly from the server. If the software was not previously downloaded, a node within the network group is designated to download the software from the server, and then distributes the software to at least one requesting node.
