Abstract
A computer-implemented method may comprise requesting, by a first mobile computing device, a logical data object stored at an address location on a wide area network (WAN); receiving, by the first mobile computing device, the requested logical data object from the address location on the WAN and storing the received logical data object in the first mobile computing device. A logical data object request may then be received from a second mobile computing device. Responsive to the logical data object request, a copy of the stored logical data object of the logical data object stored at the address location on the WAN may be sent from the first mobile computing device to the second mobile computing device using a peer-to-peer communication protocol. The sent copy of the stored logical data object may be devoid of data or data files referred to by the stored logical data object.
