h1. Home * [[Study of bittorent protocol]] * [[Study of UPNP]] h2. Description A bit brainstormed for the moment ;) * Designed for LAN usage (full trusted peers) * Efficient (very low cpu usage) * Distributed download (multi peer downloading and no central server) ** Quicker Optimized for speed (quicker seed first. The speed of a peer is an average over a period of time say 5 min. A speed of a peer can be unknown. If a downloading is too slow (like three time slower than the best known peer) then it can switch from a quicker free seed. first) ** Rarest parts first. first ** A part can be resumed from any peer. ** Fixed part size (2^24 B = 16 MB) hashed with SHA-1. SHA1. Used to control the integrity of parts and to identify a file. A file is identified by the concatenation of all the SHA1 of all its parts. If the SHA-1 of a part does not match with the given SHA-1 then it will be re-downloaded entirely. ** Recursive folder downloading * There is a general chat * Multicast UDP for services discovering (maybe UPNP) * MDI GUI with GTK2HS ** A panel to view the current peers ** A window to view the current downloads (leechage) and one for the current uploads (seedage) ** A window for the chat ** A window for searching ** Some windows for each file browsing ** A modal window for the settings *** The shared folders *** The incoming folder *** Bandwidth limitation * File list with name+size * Non blocking search * Using of systray (optional) * Free space management * Graphic of the transfert rate over time
