h1. Home * [[Study of bittorent protocol]] * [[Study of UPNP]] * [[Protocol]] h2. Description A bit brainstormed for the moment ;) * Designed for LAN usage (full trusted peers). peers) * Efficient (very low cpu usage). usage) * Distributed download (multi peer downloading and no central server). server) ** 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. ** Rarest parts first. ** A part can be resumed from any peer. ** Fixed part size (2^24 B = 16 MB) hashed with SHA-1. 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. downloading * There is a general chat. chat * Multicast UDP for services discovering (maybe UPNP). UPNP) * MDI GUI with GTK2HS. GTK2HS ** A panel to view the current peers. peers ** A window to view the current downloads (leechage) and one for the current uploads (seedage). (seedage) ** A window for the chat. chat ** A window for searching. searching ** Some windows for each file browsing. browsing ** A modal window for the settings. settings *** The shared folders. folders *** The incoming folders (take the first if enough available space disk otherwise the second and so one..). folder *** Bandwidth limitation. limitation * File list with name+size. name+size * Non blocking search. search * Using of systray (optional). (optional) * Free space management. management * Graphic of the transfert rate over time. time
