| 1. A method for transmitting data over a network to at least one client having a latency time to initiate transmission of
said data to the client, including the steps of:
generating a plurality of anti-latency data streams containing at least a leading portion of the data for receipt by the client;
and
generating a plurality of interactive data streams containing at least a remaining portion of said data for the client to
merge into after receiving at least a portion of an anti-latency data stream, wherein said plurality of interactive data streams
provides interactive functions to a user,
wherein said data is fragmented into K segments each requiring a time T to transmit over the network;
the anti-latency data stream includes M anti-latency data streams; and
the interactive data streams includes N interactive data streams,
where K, M and N are integers,
wherein each of the N interactive data streams is repeated continuously within said interactive data stream, and wherein each
successive interactive data stream is staggered by an
 the anti-latency data streams 1 to M are generated such that
an mth anti-latency data stream has Fm segments, wherein Fm is an mth Fibonacci number; and
the Fm segments are recreated continuously within the mth anti-latency data stream,
wherein m starts from 1.
