Abstract

We propose a content distribution strategy over municipal WiFi networks where Access Points (APs) collaboratively cache popular multimedia content, and disseminate them in a manner that each mobile device has the portion of the content just-in-time for playback. If successful, we envision that a child will be able to seamlessly watch a movie in a car, as her tablet downloads different parts of the movie over different WiFi APs at different times.
