ABSTRACT:
A method for writing file data from client to server which comprises writing file data from a client to a server, wherein the client issues to the server a file transfer proposal that includes the names of a plurality of files to be transferred and attributes of each of the plurality of files. The server determines optimum memory locations for the plurality of files and optimum sequence and size of data transfer and issues to the client a request to transfer the plurality of files in a sequence that is optimized for memory location and minimal number of data transfers, thereby maximizing data transfer rate from the client to the server. Client computer, server computer, and network apparatus that are configured to implement the method are also disclosed.
