Peer Impact does what Bittroent does and more: "BitTorrent is a file-sharing system that allows a single file to be broken into small fragments, which are distributed among computers. People then share pieces of the content with each other. This reduces bandwidth costs for content providers and speeds up the downloading process."

Peer Impact also shares its data as fragments and there is also a centralised tracker they call a 'trafic cop ' that manages the downloads and can identify if the nodes are on the Same ISP or in the same geographic region .The trcker also take note of how much uptime your node has and gauges your participation in the network .

Peer Impact provides "seeders" with a system credit for uploading that is placed into thier account .; Posted by: Matt_H Posted on: 07/12/06 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
