<p>The invention provides a technique for transferring data from a source to a relatively large number of clients that is not subject to the drawbacks of the known art. This can be achieved by using both known and predicted demand for content required at selected times in the future, selecting times earlier than when information is required and adaptively using transmission capacity, schedulijg (i.e. timing of transmissions) and multicast grouping to deliver that information to a plurality of clients.</p> |
