  • Methodology for cache coherency of web server data
    Patent number: 6219676
    Abstract: A method and system to establish and maintain cache coherency between a web server and one or more clients communicating through a network. The method includes designating monitor areas on a data segment of the server, determining if an activity occurs in one of the monitor areas, updating a change log if such activity occurs, and indicating the updated status of the change log to the clients. The method also handles requests from the clients and responding to those requests. Clients can then check the change log for updates, instead of resorting to dredging or web crawling.
