Abstract
A system includes a processor configured to receive a plurality of reports identifying file-chunk distribution among reporting vehicles. The processor is also configured to determine reseeding file chunks to improve distribution characteristics, responsive to the reports. The processor is further configured to determine a plurality of candidate delivery vehicles and responsive to determining that a distribution threshold has passed, send the reseeding file chunks to the determined delivery vehicles.
