Abstract: When a client-server system that adopts a Web service featuring dynamic connection among different systems is constructed, an existing priority control device therein disconnects communication with lower priority, at the time of server overload that continues for several hours. Thus, the availability of the system is reduced. A client-server Web service system includes a unit for interpreting communication protocols at a protocol layer 4 used in the system, a unit for receiving requests transmitted from clients to a server, for buffering, a unit for analyzing the protocol type, the destination, and the communication contents of each of the requests, a unit for converting the result of the analysis into a priority, and a unit for transmitting the buffered requests to the server based on the priority and then transmitting to the clients responses from the server.

Abstract: In order to overcome a difficulty in which, when a moving image played back by an operated-side computer is displayed on an operating-side computer through a network, a smooth moving image cannot be displayed because of being adversely influenced by the variation of a transfer data amount or a network bandwidth, a moving image displaying method and system are arranged to capture moving image playback event information being remotely operated and convey the information about the playback of the moving image on the operated-side computer to the operating-side computer. The operating-side computer provides a function of obtaining and receiving the moving image data played back on the event information, playing back the display image from the obtained moving image data, and overlapping the display image with the remote operation view.

Abstract: In a Web information preferential transfer system, two priorities, personal priority and site priority can be set on the site of a user. On the site of a user, the site priority which can be set by a LAN-side proxy server is the priority of when a request is made. A WAN-side proxy server installed on the provider side extracts the site priority of the request, converts it to the final priority according to the communication state and settings, converts the final priority to a preferential control parameter of an IP packet of a Web object in response to the Web request, and relays it to the LAN-side proxy server. Preferential control may be made based on the final priority in the WAN-side proxy server. Charging by the provider is performed based on the communication contents used and the requested priority.

Abstract: An environment migration system set, as a utilization environment of a terminal, a utilization environment of another terminal in an information processing apparatus when the terminal utilizes the information processing apparatus through a network. A connection is established through a network between the information processing apparatus and the other terminal in accordance with response data returned from the information processing apparatus. A utilization environment transmitting unit extracts data of the utilization environment of the other terminal and transmits it to the address of the information processing apparatus. The utilization environment data received from the other terminal is then stored into a storage apparatus as the utilization environment data of the terminal.

Abstract: A congestion control system provided in a connection portion between a network for an Internet provider and the Internet estimates a processing capability of a Web server on the basis of states of TCP/IP such as a window size of connection being connected, a cancellation rate of packet, a response time, a throughput and the like in a congestion state of the Web server to be requested and a network to the Web server and calculates a regulation duration for each Web server on the basis of the processing capability and the number of clients being in a waiting state for a re-request to the Web server so that the client is regulated when a response for regulating the re-request with the regulation duration is returned to the client. Consequently, since the number of re-requests per unit time can be made fixed, congestion due to re-requests can be prevented and the user can necessarily utilize the Web server upon re-request.

Abstract: A service system in which a server offers a service in response to a request from a client. The system can offer the stable service even in the case of an access from the client and also can offer a preferential service under certain conditions. The request from the client to the server is carried out via a data communication forwarding apparatus, the apparatus has a unit for queuing the request with a priority and has a unit for changing the forwarding sequence of the request according to the priority. Thereby the number of simultaneous requests to the server can be suppressed to within the processing ability of the server with the stable service. Further, the request can be preferentially processed according to the user, transaction, wait time, etc.

Abstract: This invention efficiently restricts access to high-load web servers on an IP network, improves total throughput, and prevents web server and system stoppage and failures, while at the same time improving user service efficiency. After storing the association between IP addresses and host names into a memory, the congestion controller installed on the IP network controls a DNS server to acquire the IP address of a web server when a request is issued from a client to the web server, then if the web server of the IP address is judged to be congested, searches for another IP address of a non-congested web server associated with the same host name included in the memory-stored association, and forwards the client-issued request to the web server of the new IP address.
