1. A method, comprising the steps of:
- establishing a first session with a first client device to deliver first content in response to a request for the first session;
modulating, by a device, the first content onto a predefined carrier frequency for transmission to the first client device according, to a set of resource descriptor attributes, wherein the set of resource descriptor attributes define characteristics of a path through the device to satisfy the request for the first session;
receiving a request for a second session with a second client device to deliver second content wherein the first and second client devices are different client devices; and
re-using the first session for the second session, wherein the re-using comprises;
modulating, by the device, the second content onto the predefined carrier frequency for transmission to the second client device via the path through the device to satisfies the request for the second session;
wherein the first session is exclusive to the first client until release of the first session for the re-use of the first session by the second client; and
wherein release of the first session is initiated by the first client, by a digital network control system, or a server.

1. A method, comprising the steps of:
-
establishing a first session with a first client device to deliver first content in response to a request for the first session; modulating, by a device, the first content onto a predefined carrier frequency for transmission to the first client device according, to a set of resource descriptor attributes, wherein the set of resource descriptor attributes define characteristics of a path through the device to satisfy the request for the first session; receiving a request for a second session with a second client device to deliver second content wherein the first and second client devices are different client devices; and re-using the first session for the second session, wherein the re-using comprises; modulating, by the device, the second content onto the predefined carrier frequency for transmission to the second client device via the path through the device to satisfies the request for the second session; wherein the first session is exclusive to the first client until release of the first session for the re-use of the first session by the second client; and wherein release of the first session is initiated by the first client, by a digital network control system, or a server. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)

10. A computer readable memory having stored thereon a program executed by a computing device and comprising instructions for implementing the following:
-
establishing a first session with a first client device to deliver first content, in response to a request for the first session; causing the computing device to modulate the first content onto a predefined carrier frequency for transmission to the first client device according to a set of resource descriptor attributes, wherein the set of resource descriptor attributes define characteristics of a path through the computing device to satisfy the request for the first session; receiving a request for a second session with a second client device to delivery second content wherein the first and second client devices are different client devices; and re-using the first session for the second session, wherein the re-using comprises;
causing the computing device to modulate the second content onto the predefined carrier frequency for transmission to the second client device via the path through the computing device to satisfy the request for the second session;wherein the first session is exclusive to the first client until release of the first session for the re-use of the first session by the second client; and wherein release of the first session is initiated by the first client, by a digital network control system, or a server. - View Dependent Claims (11)

12. A system comprising:
-
a digital network control system connected in a network between a server and a plurality of client devices, the digital network control system being configured to; facilitate a transfer of first content from the server to a first client device of the plurality of client devices over the network during a first session in response to a request for the first session; modulating, by a device, the first content onto a predefined carrier frequency for transmission to the first client device according to a set of resource descriptor attributes, wherein the set of resource descriptor attributes define characteristics of a path through the device to satisfy the request for the first session; receive a request for a second session from a second client device of the plurality of client devices wherein the first and second client devices are different client devices; and in response to the request for the second session, establish the second session between the second client device and the server by re-using the first session, wherein the re-using comprises; modulating, by the device, the second content onto the predefined carrier frequency for transmission to the second client device via the path through the device to satisfy the request for the second session; wherein the first session is exclusive to the first client until release of the first session for the re-use of the first session by the second client; and wherein release of the first session is initiated by the first client, by the digital network control system, or the server. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
