METHOD FOR ALLOWING DISTRIBUTED RUNNING OF AN APPLICATION AND RELATED PRE-PROCESSING UNIT
First Claim
1. A method for allowing distributed running of an application between a device and a server connected via a network, the method comprising the following steps carried out by a pre-processing unit:
- analyzing a code of the application for identifying parts that satisfy or are assumed to satisfy at least one first criterion based on resource consumption;
transmitting only the identified application code parts to the server;
generating from the application code an enriched application code arranged to call for execution of one of the identified application code parts on the server only if at least one second criterion based on resource overload is satisfied at the time said application code part is to be run; and
transmitting the enriched application code to the device.

Abstract
Method for allowing distributed running of an application between a device and a server connected via a network. The method includes the following steps carried out by a pre-processing unit: analyzing a code of the application for identifying parts that satisfy or are assumed to satisfy at least one first criterion based on resource consumption; transmitting only the identified application code parts to the server; generating from the application code an enriched application code arranged to call for the execution of one of the identified application code parts on the server only if at least one second criterion based on resource overload is satisfied at the time the application code part is to be run; and transmitting the enriched application code to the device.

5. A pre-processing unit for allowing distributed running of an application between a device and a server connected via a network, the pre-processing unit comprising:
-
an analyzer configured to analyze code of the application for identifying parts that satisfy or are assumed to satisfy at least one first criterion based on resource consumption; a transmitter configured to transmit only the identified application code parts to the server; a code generator configured to generate from the application code an enriched application code arranged to call for execution of one of the identified application code parts on the server only if at least one second criterion based on resource overload is satisfied at the time said application code part is to be run; and a transmitter configured to transmit the enriched application code to the device.
