Abstract (en)

[origin: US2020305070A1] There is proposed a method for obtaining a data segment by a client device capable of communicating with a plurality of content delivery networks (CDN1, CDN2), the method comprising the following steps: for each network of the plurality of networks, calculating (100) a score associated with the network indicative of a quality of transmission of data from the network to the client device; randomly drawing (102) a network in the plurality of networks, the random draw being adapted so that a probability of drawing a network of the plurality associated with a score indicative of a first quality of transmission is higher than a probability of drawing a network of the plurality associated with a score indicative of a second quality of transmission lower than the first quality of transmission; and requiring (104) the drawn network for the client device to obtain the data segment from the drawn network.
