Systems, methods, and software for preventing redundant processing of transmissions sent to a remote host computer

A system for preventing a remote host-computer from processing a redundant client transmission comprising a remote host-computer and a client, wherein each of the client and the remote host-computer comprise:

• (i) a client memory-storage device and a host-computer memory-storage device;
• (ii) a client processor and a host-computer processor connected to the respective storage devices;
• and
• (iii) client software and host-computer software for controlling the respective processors, wherein the memory-storage devices and the processors are operative with the software to:
• (a) initiate a session between the host-computer and the client;
• (b) attach a first unique identifier to a host-computer transmission, wherein the unique identifier comprises a session identifier and a transmission-set identifier;
• (c) store the first unique identifier in the host-computer memory-storage device to create a stored unique identifier;
• (d) send the host-computer transmission to the client;
• (e) attach the first unique identifier to a client transmission that is responsive to the host-computer transmission;
• (f) send the responsive client transmission to the host-computer;
• (g) query the responsive client transmission for the first unique identifier and comparing it to the stored unique identifier.

A computer-readable medium programmed with software that is operative to cause a host-computer comprising a memory-storage device and a processor to:

• (a) attach a first unique identifier to a host-computer transmission, wherein the unique identifier comprises a session identifier and a transmission-set identifier;
• (b) store the first unique identifier in the memory storage device to create a stored unique identifier;
• (c) send the host-computer transmission to a client;
• (d) query a responsive client transmission for the first unique identifier and compare it to the stored unique identifier.
