  • Patent number: 7263528
    Abstract: A file transfer system includes peer devices, including an index creating device and at least one requesting peer device. The index creating device creates an index of stored files that can be requested by peer devices. The index creating device evaluates communications requests from the peer devices and accepts communications requests in accordance with user defined criteria. The index creating device communicates with a requesting peer device when the communications request from the requesting peer device has been accepted, and also stores the index, which is linked to an identification. The requesting peer device requests files that are listed in the index linked to the identification. The requesting peer device also creates the file request, which includes a list of the selected files and the identification, transmits the file request to the index creating device, and receives the requested files listed in the index.

  • Patent number: 6442571
    Abstract: A computer data signal embodied in a propagation medium is provided. The signal enables a variable number of data transfers and includes an initial connection source code segment and a data transfer source code segment. The initial connection source code segment establishes a connection between at least two devices via predetermined listening ports, with at least one predetermined listening port residing within each device. The initial connection source code segment also dynamically assigns a first data port within a first device, and transmits the address of the first data port to a remaining device via the predetermined listening ports. The data transfer source code segment is for each of the variable number of data transfer operations.
