Zusammenfassung: | A download method forms a download user network with a plurality of user terminals which are going to download the same data. The delivery server divides the data into data portions, and assigns the data portions to the respective user terminals belonging to the download user network. Then each of the user terminals downloads the assigned data portion from the delivery server. Thereafter the downloaded data portions are mutually transmitted among the user terminals within the download user network so that each of the user terminals can obtain all the data portions which constitute the data. Each of the user terminals combines the obtained data portions into the original data. Thus the data is efficiently downloaded to the plurality of user terminals. |
