Here Comes CatBot
May 25, 2007 Posted by Tomas in : Digital Challenge , trackback
CatBot is a proposed open source system for easy distribution of large files using peer-to-peer technology (p2p). A peer-to-peer system (aka file trading system) is a method of exchanging data that combines the networked, distributive power of each individual computer, to enable an interconnected mesh of network bandwidth. CatBot is also known as the South West Creative Archive (SWCA). CatBot is currently a collaborative project between FluffyLogic, Knowledge West, South West Screen, BMEX, Bristol University, Bath Spa University, the University of Gloucestershire and the University of the West of England.You can find out more about the project, including details documents on the planning and design of the system at: http://catbot.fluffylogic.net/help.php
