  • Patent number: 11729292
    Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for promulgating modifications to resources to client devices. A resource is modified and, in response, a new reference to the modified resource is generated along with a mapping that maps a previous reference, prior to the modification, to the new reference of the modified resource. The mapping and interceptor code are injected into an index file of content referencing the resource. The interceptor code intercepts requests referencing the resource and uses the mapping to modify the requests to use the new reference. In response to receiving a request for the content from a client, the index file is transmitted to the client to execute the interceptor code and process references to the resource, in the content, by modifying the references to the resource to direct the retrieval of the resource to the modified resource according to the new reference specified in the mapping data structure.

  • Patent number: 11700295
    Abstract: A system designed for increasing network communication speed for users, while lowering network congestion for content owners and ISPs. The system employs network elements including an acceleration server, clients, agents, and peers, where communication requests generated by applications are intercepted by the client on the same machine. The IP address of the server in the communication request is transmitted to the acceleration server, which provides a list of agents to use for this IP address. The communication request is sent to the agents. One or more of the agents respond with a list of peers that have previously seen some or all of the content which is the response to this request (after checking whether this data is still valid).
