Abstract
Audio, video conferencing with a dynamic, configurable mesh network is disclosed. A mesh reliability variable can condition the design of the mesh network between a high resiliency mode and a bandwidth saving mode. Artificial intelligence techniques and ranking techniques are provided to design the mesh network and determine which client machines are to act as parent nodes and/or child nodes. A Media Distribution Server (MDS) can provide the audio, video conference stream to the assigned parent nodes in the mesh network. The parent nodes can provide the stream to one or more child nodes over the local area network, conserving the external bandwidth of a recipient of the audio, video conference stream.
