Abstract
A system and method for transferring large computer files across computer networks that has a file splitter that separates a computer file into component sections, and a file transmitter that independently sends the component sections to a receiving computer by a recursive process that starts recursively splitting from a preselected maximum size for a component section and stops when the size of the smallest component section is equal to or less than a selected minimum size for a component section.
