Abstract: A network optimizer receives, from a client device, a request for a network resource including a first version identifier identifying a first version of the network resource. A request for the network resource is transmitted to a far end network optimizer with a second version identifier that identifies a second version of the network resource. The network optimizer receives, from the far end network optimizer, a response that includes a first differences file that specifies first difference(s) between the second version with a most current version of the network resource. The response does not include the entire network resource. The network optimizer transmits to the client device a second response including a second differences file that identifies differences between the most current version of the network resource and the first version of the network resource causing the generation of an updated version of the network resource at the client device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for improving real-time coauthoring in a distributed environment without a central document manager are disclosed herein. Due to communication being non-instantaneous, the state of a document on an endpoint may differ from the state of the document on an editor at the time that an edit is made. The different states, however, may be reconcilable via a vector clock translation. Each coauthor may maintain an array of vector clocks to track the state of the document for each coauthor. The vector clocks may be included when transmitting indications of edits so that an endpoint in a modified state can translate the edit to comply with the modified state of the document. Translating edits enables more edits to be implement in real-time than otherwise possible in a distributed environment without a central document manager.

Abstract: A near end network optimizer receives, from a client device, a request for a network resource. Responsive to determining that a version of the network resource is stored in the near end network optimizer, a request for the network resource is transmitted to a far end network optimizer along with a version identifier that identifies that version. The near end network optimizer receives, from the far end network optimizer, a response that includes a differences file that specifies the difference(s) between the version of the network resource stored in the near end network optimizer with a most current version of the network resource. The response does not include the entire network resource. The near end network optimizer applies the specified difference(s) to the version that it has stored to generate an updated version of the network resource, and transmits the updated version of the network resource to the client device.
