ABSTRACT:
A nodal computer network comprises a plurality of nodes grouped into different classes. The classes include at least a first class of fully interconnected nodes and a second class of fully interconnected nodes, and the first class includes a source node having an information packet to be communicated to a destination node. The source node is configured to divide the information packet into segments and to disperse the segments among the nodes of the first class. The nodes of the first class are configured to transmit each of said segments directly to the nodes of said second class, wherein the first class is not fully interconnected with the second class.
