Publication number: 20160234142Abstract: Systems and methods for sending/receiving improved in-browser notification messages are provided. The notification messages are overlaid on HTTP traffic on port 80 for IP addresses provisioned to receive the notification messages from various sources, including weather, emergency broadcast, and police stations. A load balancer within the end-to-end system allows HTTP traffic on port 80 to be forked from non HTTP traffic on port 80 to selectively insert notification messages. The notifications are inserted by an internet content adoption protocol (ICAP) server in communication with other devices within the system.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 11, 2015Publication date: August 11, 2016Inventors: Nirmal Mody, Srini Avirneni, Brian Van Lieu
