Title: Upload Authors: Venue: Wikipedia Year: unknown Canonical: wiki:upload URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upload Collector: wikipedia OA: true ABSTRACT Uploading refers to transmitting data from one computer system to another through means of a network. Common methods of uploading include: uploading via web browsers, FTP clients, and terminals (SCP/SFTP). Uploading can be used in the context of clients that send files to a central server. While uploading can also be defined in the context of sending files between distributed clients, such as with a peer-to-peer (P2P) file-sharing protocol like BitTorrent, the term file sharing is more often used in this case. Moving files within a computer system, as opposed to over a network, is called file copying.
