Abstract
A method is intended for disseminating content data in a peer-to-peer mode between peers connected to at least one communication network. This method comprises the steps of: i) making peers exchange neighboring information between them to build a bipartite peer overlay comprising a first group, comprising peers having a complete content to be disseminated, and a second group, comprising peers having not this content or only a part of it and having links therebetween, ii) disseminating the data defining the content (and preferably encoded with erasure correcting codes) from peers of the first group to first peers of the second group according to the bipartite peer overlay, iii) disseminating the data received by the first peers to other peers of the second group according to the bipartite peer overlay, and iv) updating the bipartite peer overlay when a peer of the second group has fully completed the content.
