Abstract
A method of distributing a file from a first node to a plurality of recipient nodes comprises logically organizing a plurality of recipient nodes to which a file is to be distributed into a plurality of groups of recipient nodes. The file is distributed to the plurality of groups, wherein the distributing includes (a) partitioning the file into a plurality of subfiles, (b) distributing the plurality of subfiles from a first node to a first group, wherein at least one subfile is distributed from the first node to each recipient node of the first group but not all of the plurality of subfiles are distributed from the first node to any of the recipient nodes of the first group, and (c) the plurality of recipient nodes of the first group exchanging their respective subfiles such that each recipient node of the first group obtains all of the plurality of subfiles.
