Abstract

The invention generally relates to optimizing the speed and reliability of the delivery of content or functionality to electronic devices. In certain aspects, the invention provides a system for managing content including a production server with a web interface and configured to allow a producer to create content. The system includes a gateway server which can receive the content and write it to a dynamic section. The gateway server can then compile the dynamic section into a compiled section, still including the content, and send it to a client, thereby giving an end-user access to new content or functionality.

Claims

1. A computer system for delivering content to a plurality of users, the system comprising:

a processor; and

a memory coupled to a processor and containing instructions which, when executed, cause the system to;

receive content and write a dynamic section comprising the content;

receive a first data item created using a first operating system;

receive a second data item created using a second operating system;

compile the dynamic section into a first compiled section executable by the first operating system and the second operating system;

compile the dynamic section and first data item into a second compiled section executable by the first operating system and the second operating system;

compile the dynamic section and the second data item into a third compiled section executable by the first operating system and the second operating system;

compile the dynamic section, the first data item, and the second data item into a fourth complied section executable by the first operating system and the second operating system; and

send any of the compiled sections to a user device.

2. The system of claim 1, each of the complied sections consists of a plurality of binary packets.

3. The system of claim 1 wherein the system receives the content responsive to a request from a client and writes the dynamic section responsive to a request from a subsequent client for content previously accessed by any client.

4. A method for delivering content to one or more clients, the method comprising:

using a system comprising a processor coupled to a memory to;

receive a source section comprising content;

save the source section in the memory;

read the source section;

write a dynamic section comprising the content;

compile the dynamic section into a compiled section comprising the content; and

send the compiled section to a client queue.

5. The method of claim 4, wherein the system comprises a database comprising a group data item and an individual data item, and further comprising using the system to:

read the source section and the group data item;

write the dynamic section to comprise the content and the group data item; and

compile the dynamic section and the individual data item into the compiled section.

6. The method of claim 5 wherein the core database further comprises a second individual data item, and further comprising using the system to:

compile the dynamic section and the second individual data item into a second compiled section distinct from the compiled section.

7. The method of claim 6, wherein the compiled section comprises a content app executable by a mobile application on a mobile device having an operating system;

and

the second compiled section comprises a second content app executable by a second mobile application on a second mobile device having an operating system distinct from the operating system.

8. The method of claim 5, wherein the individual data item is received from a mobile device having an operating system, and wherein the core database further comprises:

a second group data item received from a production computer where it was created by a producer;

a second individual data item received from a second mobile device having a second operating system distinct from the operating system.

9. The method of claim 4, further comprising using the system to:

write a second dynamic section to comprise the content and the second group data item;

compile the second dynamic section and the individual data item into a replacement compiled section recognizable by the operating system;

compile the second dynamic section and the second individual data item into a second compiled section recognizable by the second operating system;

compile the dynamic section and the second individual data item into a shared compiled section recognizable by the operating system and the second operating system; and

compile the second dynamic section into a group compiled section recognizable by the operating system and the second operating system.

10. A method for delivering content to a plurality of users, the method comprising:

using a system comprising processor coupled to a memory to;

receive content and write a dynamic section comprising the content;

receive a first data item created using a first operating system;

receive a second data item created using a second operating system;

compile the dynamic section into a first compiled section executable by the first operating system and the second operating system;

compile the dynamic section and first data item into a second compiled section executable by the first operating system and the second operating system;

compile the dynamic section and the second data item into a third compiled section executable by the first operating system and the second operating system;

compile the dynamic section, the first data item, and the second data item into a fourth complied section executable by the first operating system and the second operating system; and

send any of the compiled sections to a user device.

11. The method of claim 10, wherein each of the complied sections consists of a plurality of binary packets.

12. The method of claim 10, further wherein the system receives the content responsive to a request from a client and writes the dynamic section responsive to a request from a subsequent client for content previously accessed by any client.
