Equipment 20 1, 20 2, 20 3... 20 nCan receive a file from the miscellaneous equipment that is connected to network 10, and this document can be transferred to miscellaneous equipment.For this purpose, there is a file management system 30, be used to manage position, fileinfo of each equipment or the like.
File management system is carried out following function: a private file identifier is provided for the file of sharing at a plurality of equipment rooms, manage one can be in the tabulation of the file of these equipment rooms transmission, and therefore an equipment can be from a plurality of equipment reception segmental files.This document management system can be an equipment in a plurality of equipment shown in Figure 1, and it also can comprise a plurality of equipment of collaborative work.
In Fig. 2 to Fig. 4, illustrate polytype file management system.Fig. 2 illustrates a central control documents management system 30, can realize this document management system in such as the main equipment of server at one.In this case, this document management server management document transmits needed all information, and totally controls the file transfer between these equipment.
Fig. 3 illustrates a distributed file management system 30, wherein this document management system is divided into a plurality of equipment.In this case, will in file of transmission, the needed information of cooperation cut apart and be stored in a plurality of equipment, and the control of cooperation execute file transmission between a plurality of equipment.
Fig. 4 illustrates a mixed file management system 30, the i.e. combination of Fig. 2 and system shown in Figure 3.In this case, although mainly by the management of file management system 30 execute files transmission information needed and the control of file transfer, by remaining equipment cooperation operating part work.
Fig. 2 to Fig. 4 only is the example of a file management system, also can realize this document management system by various topological structures.
Fig. 5 is the flow chart of explaining according to the processing of a file of transmission of the present invention.
At first,, wish that the subscriber equipment 20 that receives a file receives the tabulation that can receive file from file management system, specify a file of wishing to receive, and this is notified to file management system at S502 at S501.
A plurality of equipment of the file that file management system detection of stored subscriber equipment 20 is specified calculate the position and the transmission rate of each equipment, then at S503 by being that these equipment of sequence arrangement are transferred to subscriber equipment 20 with this with the transmission rate.In Fig. 6, illustrate the example (hereinafter, be called " a candidate server tabulation ", described " server " is meant the equipment as server) of such list of devices.As shown in Figure 6, the tabulation of this candidate server comprises identifier server 601, server location 602, the Server Transport speed 603 of each server, and is sequence arrangement with Server Transport speed.Come calculation server transmission rate 603 according to the working quantity of bandwidth and current execution.
Subscriber equipment 20 receives the candidate server tabulation, and at S504 definite a plurality of servers that are fit to file transfer from tabulation.In other words, subscriber equipment 20 is that order is specified n server 40 with the transmission rate, thereby uses its bandwidth best, and this will represent by following expression formula.
BW v 1+v 2+Λ+v n(v i≥v i+1)
BW: user bandwidth
V i: the speed of i equipment
Shown in top expression formula, so subscriber equipment 20 can use its bandwidth best, and the transmission rate sum of server 40 must be a value near bandwidth.For complete utilized bandwidth, the transmission rate sum of server 40 must be a value that is greater than or less than bandwidth.For example, under the environment of a low transmission rate, a modem user's environment for example, it is suitable specifying the server that transmission rate is the highest 40.
After subscriber equipment 20 had determined to have n server 40 of high transfer rate, it determined to receive from determined server 40 which part and the size of file at S504.In this case, preferably receive the major part of this document, and from having a fraction than server 40 reception this document of low transmission rate, this will represent with following expression from server 40 with a high transfer rate.
f i = F v i Σ j = 1 n v j
Fi: the file fragment size of distributing to i equipment
F: the file size that will receive
In a journal file, be recorded among the S504 transmission server of determining 40 tabulation and will be by the relevant information of a file fragment of each server 40 transmission.When being merged into file from a plurality of fragments of a file of a plurality of servers 40 receptions with them, subscriber equipment 20 needs this journal file.
Then, subscriber equipment 20 is notified to a transmission server 40 to the relevant information of a plurality of fragments of a file that will transmit, and in file transfer of S505 request.
Subscriber equipment 20 receives a plurality of fragments of this document, and writes down institute's information transmitted in journal file.In this processing procedure, another server 40 substitutes the server 40 that goes wrong during a file in transmission and transmits, subsequently with the transmission of detailed instrument of interpretation.In addition, must be the fragment of identical file from the file fragment of a plurality of Server Transport, will explain the method that guarantees file homogeneity subsequently.
When the transmission of the file fragment of a plurality of servers 40 has been finished, subscriber equipment 20 is merged into single file according to journal file with these file fragments at S507, and finishes in S508 circular document management system 30 file transfer.
Fig. 7 illustrates the example of a journal file.The journal file of Fig. 7 has planned to receive from the 3rd server 40 a plurality of fragments from 1000001 byte to 50000000 bytes of 10000000 byte file.Yet it breaks down when transfer files, causes file only to be transferred to 2000578 bytes.Receive the file of all the other bytes as " fragment 6 " from another server 40.Subscriber equipment 20 is merged into original document according to the transmission information of this journal file with these file fragments.
After finishing file transfer, when the file that is transmitted is stored in the subscriber equipment 20 as its private file identifier, file management system 30 these subscriber equipmenies 20 of record have been stored the file with this document identifier.Because revise, move the position with the user can not guarantee the homogeneity of institute's transfer files to the destruction of file the time, this document can be deleted from a file-sharing environment or is got rid of.
To describe step S506 now in detail according to Fig. 5 of a plurality of fragments of file of transmission of the present invention.
Subscriber equipment 20 is estimated transmission bit rate when receiving a certain size a plurality of packet from each server, thereby utilizes this transmission rate in transfer management.The transmission rate of server is not constant, but changing.Therefore, if transmission rate of appearance sharply reduces or transmits unsettled server in the file fragment transmission course, then must substitute this server with another server.
In order to substitute this transmission server, use candidate server tabulation as shown in Figure 6.Determine that according to this candidate server tabulation another has the server of higher transmission rates, transmits the remainder that this server that goes wrong does not transmit as yet then.The quantity that substitutes failed server also can be a plurality of.
If do not have alternative server in the candidate server tabulation, then subscriber equipment 20 passes through the renewal tabulation of request from file management system acquisition candidate server, and searches for an alternative server in this tabulation.
Below, will describe a kind ofly guaranteeing that a plurality of fragments by a file of a Server Transport are methods of a plurality of fragments of identical file now.
As mentioned above, for a plurality of files that come by single file division by a plurality of device transmission, must guarantee a plurality of fragments of all devices transmission identical file.If a plurality of fragments of the different files of a plurality of device transmission, and subscriber equipment is merged into a file with these fragments, and then this file is not the file that the user wants, but an impaired file.
In order to guarantee the homogeneity of file, in the present invention, in case transmit the just information of record original document on a meta file of a file, and in case give relevant information that another user just relatively will transfer files and canned data in this meta file with the fragments for transport of this document.Result as a comparison, if this document is identical with original document, then transmission, if different, would be a new file with its management then by receiving a new identifier from file management system.Can judge whether this document is identical with original document by following method.
At first, if the size of this document is identical with original document, judge that then they are identical.
Secondly, this document is divided into m fragment, then that each fragment is a part of relevant information records is in meta file.When with file transfer during to another equipment, relatively a part of relevant information and the information that writes down on meta file of this fragment that will transmit judges whether they are identical.At this moment, can adjust described certain a part of position and size according to the needs of file management system.
The 3rd, this document is divided into m fragment, the content of coding (eap-message digest) each fragment is to be recorded on the meta file then.When subsequently this document being transferred to another equipment, the fragment that coding will transmit, then with the encoding ratio that on meta file, writes down.If coding is different, it is different with original document then to judge this document.Therefore, do not transmit this fragment, and in whole system, be a new file its management.
If carry out relatively after on meta file, writing down all segment contents, then can absolutely guarantee the homogeneity of file.But in this case, the size of meta file is identical with original document, thereby causes the waste of resource.Therefore, convert the content of transmission fragment to a suitably coding of size, be recorded on the meta file then.
Will be with following expression represent to be used to the to encode method of a plurality of fragments of a file.
code i=f(x i)
F: coding function
x i: the content of i fragment
Suitably select the size of coding function and coding according to its purpose by file management system.As the simplest coding function, a function that obtains the content summation will be a good example.Guarantee at Special attention will be given under the situation of homogeneity, can be with the complete break-even compression method of a kind of content as a coding function.
Fig. 8 diagram receives a plurality of fragments of a file and they is merged into the state of single file from a plurality of servers by subscriber equipment of processing method shown in Figure 5.
In Fig. 8, five server 81-85 give subscriber equipment 20 with a plurality of fragments for transport of a file respectively.A major part of Server Transport this document that in this case, transmission rate is high.In Fig. 8, the server 83 of transmission largest portion has flank speed, and the server 81 of transmission least part has minimum speed limit.
By this way, by the file of five servers, 81 to 85 transmission that utilizes collaborative work, subscriber equipment 20 can use its bandwidth best, thereby improves file transfer speed significantly.
Though cut apart the method diagram of a plurality of files that single complete file obtains and described the present invention at receiving by a plurality of servers, it also will be suitable for a file division and be stored in situation in a plurality of equipment.Therefore, be used for according to the present invention transmission during a file method and system of collaborative work can be used as a kind of method of cutting apart and storing a big capacity documents.Hereinafter, its description will be explained.
Along with the increase of a file size, an equipment may occur and can not store whole file.In this case, the equipment (being called device A) that can not store whole file is stored a fragment of this big capacity documents, remaining part of other device storage.And, if device A wishes to check the content of this big capacity documents, receiving other fragment of this document by using a file management system according to the present invention, it can check this document, has stored whole file as device A itself.At this moment, a plurality of fragments that will cut apart and be stored in this document in a plurality of equipment are considered as an ordinary file.The processing procedure of a file of transmission is also with identical with reference to figure 5 described transmission and processing process.
For example, if device A can not be stored certain jumbo file fully, therefore this document is divided into a certain size ten fragments, described size is easy to handle so that be stored in a plurality of equipment that comprise device A itself, and device A is checked whole file by the remainder of this document of himself storing by using file management system reception according to the present invention.This document management system is considered as ten ordinary files with these ten fragments, and as shown in Figure 5 they is transferred to device A.
At this moment, shared file system can be the continuous fragment of a file with these ten unique file management.In addition, use a fragment of device A storage this document of whole file, especially, it stores these fragments effectively makes miscellaneous equipment have the smaller portions of this document.For this purpose, device A find to have the number of servers of each file fragment, and storage is by the file fragment that server had of minimum number to the relevant candidate server tabulation as shown in Figure 6 of ten files of file management system request and this.
So far, under identical file being cut apart and be stored in hypothesis in a plurality of servers, described from a plurality of servers receiving a plurality of fragments of a file and they are merged into the method for single file (many-one transmission).
Yet when generating a file for the first time, this file only exists a Device memory.Therefore, will be described in two kinds of methods of a file transfer being given raising transmission rate under the situation of a plurality of equipment (one-to-many transmission) hereinafter.
At first, preceding a kind of method relates to the speed that central control documents management system is managed a plurality of equipment as shown in Figure 2, and making these equipment serves as the situation that order receives a file with their transmission rate.
In other words, this document management system is obtained the transmission rate of a file of these device transmission, with the transmission rate be sequence arrangement they, and the tabulation of these equipment sent to the equipment (server) of storage this document and a plurality of equipment of reception this document.With reference to this tabulation, this server is transferred to the fastest equipment with this document, and the fastest equipment is transferred to the second fast equipment with this document, and the second fast equipment is transferred to the 3rd fast equipment with this document.In transmission course, when the fastest equipment was finished transmission of this document, it was to end-of-transmission message of server notification.Then, allow this fastest equipment, and allow this document to be transferred to the second fast equipment as the equipment of original server as another server.
By an example said method is described referring now to Fig. 9.Supposing that current only equipment No.0 has a specific file, is that tactic equipment No.1 to No.100 slave unit No.0 receives this file with transmission rate.Actuating equipment No.0 is up to the forwarding of equipment No.100, so that equipment No.0 is transferred to equipment No.1 with this document, equipment No.1 is transferred to equipment No.2 with this document, and the rest may be inferred.When in transmission course, finishing a file transfer to equipment No.1, allow equipment No.1 as a server, and the equipment of permission No.0 is that original server is transferred to equipment No.2 with this document.By this way, along with number of servers continues to increase, this transmission becomes many-to-one transmission gradually, thereby improves the transmission rate of this document.
Secondly, a kind of method in back relates to the not method of necessary management equipment speed of a kind of file management system.If request surpasses a predetermined volumes as the number of devices of equipment (equipment No.0) the execute file transmission of server, then equipment No.0 concentrates on the highest equipment of speed (equipment No.1) with its file transfer, basically to file of miscellaneous equipment transmission, cause that therefore miscellaneous equipment searches for another server.Simultaneously, equipment 0 notifies the equipment No.1 of a transmission of current execution will become the equipment that is used as a new server to file management system.
When the miscellaneous equipment request was used as the list of devices of server, file management system sent a tabulation that comprises equipment No.1.In case see this tabulation, miscellaneous equipment is just attempted slave unit No.1 and is received a file.
Therefore, when slave unit No.0 received a file, equipment No.1 gave miscellaneous equipment with a file transfer in the current data area that has received.If there is the equipment of too much requesting service No.1 execute file transmission, then file management system is apprised of: by equipment No.1 is being the equipment as new server to the equipment (equipment No.2) of its transfer files.By this way, the transmission of this one-to-many little by little is varied to a many-to-one transmission, thereby improves transmission rate.
Though so far with reference to the formal description of downloading a file the present invention, it also goes for a flow transmission.Thereby flow transmission be do not need to download receiving data under the situation of a big capacity documents in regeneration video or audio content appreciate the technology of video and audio content.Equally, in this case, when downloading a file, can directly use the present invention.
Though illustrate and described the present invention at some preferred embodiment of the present invention, those of ordinary skill in the art will understand under the situation that does not break away from the defined the spirit and scope of the present invention of claims, can carry out various changes therein in form and details.
And not only give a plurality of users with whole file transfer by individual server, but cut apart a plurality of files that single file obtains by a plurality of servers by receiving, improved file transfer speed significantly according to document transmission system of the present invention and method.
In addition, when in the process of a file of transmission, in one of server, any problem occurring, use the server fault-toleranr technique to substitute the transmission of this document by another server.
In addition, even a file is present in the individual equipment, and it must be transferred to a plurality of equipment from this individual equipment, and the transmission rate of file also can improve.
Can be used for using a unworkable in the prior art big capacity documents according to document transmission system of the present invention and method, and can be used for data streaming service.
