Abstract

Parallelized FTP (P-FTP) approach, attempts to solvethe problem of slow downloads of large multimedia fileswhile optimizing the utilization of mirror servers. The approachpresented in this paper downloads a single file frommultiple mirror servers simultaneously, where each mirrorserver transfers a portion of the file. P-FTP server calculatesthe optimum division of the file for efficient transfer.The dynamic monitoring ability of P-FTP maintains thefile transfer process at the optimized level no matter howabruptly network and mirror server characteristics change.
