A Distributed File Transfer Protocol Based on P-ftp
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we propose a Distributed File Transfer Protocol (DFTP) which is used to reduce the file download time. DFTP finds suitable mirror servers by the client itself, and calculates the size of transmission subfile for each found mirror server. The size of sub-file is corresponded to the basis of server availability and path quality. Since the file is segmented into sub-files, simultaneous download sub-files from found servers decreases the time spending for the client. It also reduces the loading on each server. This method speeds up the time for downloading large files.

Another Look at Data and File Transfer Protocols
Our experience with ad hoc techniques of data and file transfer over the ARPANET together with a better knowledge of terminal IMP (TIP) capabilities and Datacomputer requirements has indicated to us that the Data Transfer Protocol (DTP) (see ref 1) and the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) (see ref 2) could undergo revision. Our effort in implementing DTP and FTP has revealed areas in which the prot...

متن کاملFTP Traffic Generator
Network simulation is an important tool used to increase the understanding of network services and protocols. A key to conducting compelling simulation studies is to use a realistic traffic pattern. However, many generators oversimplify traffic patterns. This paper presents a tool that has been created to capture the main characteristics of the file transfer protocol (FTP) and generate sessions...
متن کاملParallelized FTP
The parallelized FTP (P-FTP) approach, attempts to solve the problem of slow downloads of large multimedia files while optimizing the utilization of mirror servers. The approach presented in this paper downloads a single file from multiple mirror servers simultaneously, where each mirror server transfers a portion of the file. The P-FTP server calculates the optimum division of the file for eff...
متن کاملA Constraint-Based Approach to Diagnosing Distributed Software Systems
Distributed software problems can be particularly mystifying to diagnose, for both system users and system administrators. Model-based diagnosis methods that have been more commonly applied to physical systems can be brought to bear on such software systems. A case study is presented here using the File Transfer Protocol (FTP). The knowledge base is divided into three components: user interacti...
