Systems and methods for providing client-side accelerated access to remote applications via TCP multiplexing
First Claim
1. A method for accelerating on a client access by the client to one or more applications on a server by multiplexing a plurality of application requests via a shared transport layer connection, the method comprising the steps of:
- (a) intercepting, by an acceleration program on a client, a first request by a first application of the client to access a server;
(b) transmitting, by the acceleration program, the first request via a transport layer connection established between the acceleration program and the server;
(c) intercepting, by the acceleration program, a second request by a second application of the client to access the server; and
(d) transmitting, by the acceleration program, the second request via the established transport layer connection used by the first application.

Abstract
The present invention is directed towards systems and methods for dynamically deploying and executing acceleration functionality on a client to improve the performance and delivery of remotely accessed applications. In one embodiment, the client-side acceleration functionality is provided by an acceleration program that performs a transport layer connection multiplexing technique for improving performance of communications and delivery of a remotely-accessed application. The acceleration program establishes a transport layer connection from the client to the server that can be used by multiple applications on the client, or that is otherwise shared among applications of the client. The acceleration program multiplexes requests from one or more applications via the same transport layer connection maintained by the acceleration program. As such, the acceleration program can utilize the idle time of one application in using the transport layer connection to service a request of a second application through the same transport layer connection.

19. A system for accelerating on a client access by the client to one or more applications on a server by multiplexing a plurality of application requests via a shared transport layer connection, the system comprising:
-
means for intercepting, by an acceleration program on a client, a first request by a first application of the client to access a server;
means for transmitting, by the acceleration program, the first request via a transport layer connection established between the acceleration program and the server;
means for intercepting, by the acceleration program, a second request by a second application of the client to access the server; and
means for transmitting, by the acceleration program, the second request via the established transport layer connection used by the first application. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36)
