First Claim
Patent Images
1. An information processing system, comprising:
- a first computing device configured to;
receive a first information packet originating from a client;
in response to the first information packet, identify a computing device that stores a data structure of a connection with the client;
when the identified computing device is the first computing device, perform an operation of a server application in response to the first information packet; and
when the identified computing device is a second computing device, output a second information packet to the second computing device, the second information packet including a reference to the data structure, the reference being included within a header of the second information packet.

Abstract
An information processing system comprises a first computing device configured to receive state information through a first port and selectively initiate execution of a software application by the first computing device when a state of at least one of the first computing device and a second computing device is a first state, and the second computing device through a second port when the state is a second state, the software application being associable with one or more software objects.

11. A method performed by a first computing device of an information processing system, the method comprising:
-
receiving a first information packet originating from a client;
in response to the first information packet, identifying a computing device that stores a data structure of a connection with the client;
when the identified computing device is the first computing device, performing an operation of a server application in response to the first information packet; and
when the identified computing device is a second computing device, outputting a second information packet to the second computing device, the second information packet including a reference to the data structure, the reference being included within a header of the second information packet. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 22, 23, 24, 47)

25. An information processing system, comprising:
a first computing device comprising;
means for receiving a first information packet originating from a client;
means for responding to the first information packet by identifying a computing device that stores a data structure of a connection with the client;
means for selectively performing an operation of a server application configured to perform the operation when the identified computing device is the first computing device; and
means for selectively outputting a second information packet to a second computing device configured to output the second information packet to the second computing device when the identified computing device is the second computing device, the second information packet including a reference to the data structure, the reference being included within a header of the second information packet. - View Dependent Claims (26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35)

36. A computer-readable memory medium whose contents, when executed, cause a first computing device to process information, by performing a method comprising:
-
receiving a first information packet originating from a client;
in response to the first information packet, identifying a computing device that stores a data structure of a connection with the client;
when the identified computing device is the first computing device, performing an operation of a server application in response to the first information packet; and
when the identified computing device is a second computing device, outputting a second information packet to the second computing device, wherein the second computing device is configured to perform the operation in response to the second information packet, the second information packet including a reference to the data structure, the reference being included within a single header of the second information packet. - View Dependent Claims (37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45)
