A method for dissemination of multimedia information through deployment of a decentralized peer-to-peer network and a decentralized network for implementation of the method

摘要

The present invention relates to the field of computer networks and provides opportunity to improve the quality and reliability of the delivery of multimedia information stream to a user. The method of dissemination of multimedia information includes transmission of a requested multimedia information stream from a streamer node (3) through a public spreader node (2), wherein the initial stream is divided into segments based on the time of formation of these segments, with each segment assigned a unique and permanent identifier. Each segment is loaded into a storage buffer of the participant node, further copied to an execution buffer and finally the segment copied from the storage buffer is deleted at inexpedience of its further preservation. The decentralized network includes a set of nodes: participant network nodes (1 1 ... 1 n ), public spreader nodes (2) providing retransmission of the multimedia information stream, streamer nodes (3 1 ... 3 m ) providing broadcast of the multimedia information stream, channel provider nodes (4), stream broadcast configurator nodes (5).
