Abstract: Systems and methods for rendering document-based user interface software objects are disclosed. User interface software objects may be represented in a document object model on a first computer system. These objects may then be communicated to a second computer system on which they are similarly rendered through use of a document object model on a second computer system. A document on a first computer system may also be updated to reflect either user input through a user interface software object included in the document, or changes induced by server side logic. The updates may be incrementally communicated to and rendered in a second computer system. Location-neutral user interface software objects may be developed without regard to whether the software object will ultimately reside on a client or server computer system, wherein the user interface software object is equally capable of being supported on either one of a client or server computer system.

Abstract: A method of deploying an application for shared execution between at least one alternate computing resource and a device interconnected by a communication medium. The method including the categorizing of the application into device objects and server objects, where at least certain ones of the objects are selectively categorized as a function of a set of criteria. The method further includes the creating of a set of managed objects from said server objects, loading said server objects onto said at least one alternate computing resource, and loading said managed objects and said device objects onto said device.

Abstract: A method and system for transferring objects between computers, especially a server and a device in a Java environment, is provided. A server connected to the device interrogates the device to determine whether the device has the available resources to accept a download, and to determine if any of objects included in the download are already resident on the device. Using a gateway object on the device, and a gateway managed-object on the server, the server passes an archive of the necessary objects, not presently available on the device, to the gateway via the gateway managed-object. The gateway then instructs a persistent storage repository on the device to commit the archive to persistent storage.

Abstract: A method for dynamically self-adjusting rendering functionality in a browser includes providing a stimulus to the browser, and reacting to the stimulus using the browser so as to direct a change in a rendering module inventory associated with the browser. The stimulus may include a user interaction, a memory threshold trigger, a freshness logic trigger, a change in IP address and/or a change in a browser connection type. The change in the rendering module inventory may be downloading a rendering module and/or removal of a rendering module. A rendering module may be downloaded from a remote server over the Internet.
