Abstract
A network device monitors communications between a server and a client. The network device simulates certain types of required responses to the server to maintain a persistent session between a client and the server when the actual connection may be intermittent. The network device condenses application screens from the server to streamline user interaction between the client and the server. The network device stores required records for a transaction and provides them to a client for offline processing and then synchronizes stored offline transaction data from the client with the server.
Claims18
A computer-implemented method for facilitating communications between a client mobile device and a server, comprising:
- at a network device communicatively coupled with the server and the client mobile device,
- identifying one or more requests directed to the client mobile device from the server that require a response from the client mobile device to maintain a session between the client mobile device and the server,
- identifying one or more remote function call (RFC) requests included in the one or more requests directed to the client mobile device from the server;
- forwarding to the client mobile device one or more requests that are not identified as RFC requests;
- and
- sending from the network device a simulated response to the server in response to each of the identified requests that require the response to maintain the session between the client mobile device and the server.
A network device communicatively coupled with a server and a client mobile device, the network device comprising a processor configured to:
- identify one or more requests directed to the client mobile device from the server that require a response from the client mobile device to maintain a session between the client mobile device and the server;
- identify one or more remote function call (RFC) requests included in the one or more requests directed to the client mobile device from the server;
- designate the identified RFC requests as having a lower priority;
- and
- send a simulated response to the server in response to each of the identified requests that require the response to maintain the session between the client mobile device and the server.
