The invention concerns a method for adapting the behavior of a cache located along the transmission path between a client terminal and a server, such a client terminal being able to receive from the server content parts of a multimedia content, characterized in that it comprises the steps of:
- upon request (S0), by a first client terminal, for a content part not stored in the cache, storing (S2) said content part itself in said cache and recording (S3) at least one characteristic of the reception of said content part by the cache, upon transmission to the first client terminal;
- upon subsequent request (S4), by a second client terminal, for the same content part as the one stored in said cache, controlling (S5) the data sending rate, based on the recorded characteristic, while delivering the stored content part from said cache to the second client terminal. |
