Abstract
Peer-to-peer and IPTV based technologies have facilitated tremendous growth in terms of the sharing of video files in computer networks and on the Internet. This growth has imposed an immense challenge on service providers in terms of being able to handle continuously increasing loads while still ensuring (a minimum) quality of service. This invention responds to the noted challenge by providing a novel apparatus, method and system for providing video to an end user at various resolutions. Additional benefits include the preservation of computing resources in terms of processing resources, power, and bandwidth while still providing users with content-rich services.
