  • Patent number: 8463912
    Abstract: A method and system that uses a thin client solution in a mobile network is disclosed. The thin client is not required to be equipped with an execution environment; rather, the client is used as a display device for applications that run on remote servers. Applications such as E-mail client, browser and others execute on a remotely located server, but use the client as a display and input device. The client is equipped with a speech input device, which receives speech input and transmits it to the server for interpretation or recognition at the server. Because bandwidth is limited, a method of combining requests that are transmitted and received between the client and one or more servers is contemplated, which method results in a reduction of traffic between the client and the server(s). The server, which runs applications that are used and accessed by a user via the client, maintains application state on the server.
