Abstract
Technologies are generally described for providing a session identifier. In some examples, a method performed under control of a first device includes generating information including at least a part of a next session identifier to be used in a next session between the first device and a second device and transmitting the information to the second device. The next session follows a present session between the first device and the second device.
Claims29
A method performed under control of a first device, comprising:
- generating information including at least a part of a next session identifier to be used in a next session between the first device and a second device, the next session following a present session between the first device and the second device;
- and
- transmitting the information to the second device.
A server, comprising:
- a receiving unit configured to receive a request for establishing a present session from a user device;
- a session identifier generating unit configured to generate a present session identifier to establish the present session between the server and the user device;
- an information generating unit configured to generate information including at least one field of at least one of a plurality of next session identifiers to be used respectively in a plurality of next sessions following the present session, each of the plurality of next session identifiers consisting of a plurality of fields;
- a transmitting unit configured to transmit the information to the user device;
- a determination unit configured to determine whether the user device requesting for establishing the present session has a same session identifier as the present session identifier;
- and
- a session initiating unit configured to establish the present session upon determining that the user device has the same session identifier as the present session identifier.
A user device, comprising:
- a requesting unit configured to make a request for establishing a present session between a server and the user device;
- a session identifier generating unit configured to generate a present session identifier to establish the present session between the server and the user device;
- an information generating unit configured to generate information including at least one field of at least one of a plurality of next session identifiers to be used in a plurality of next sessions following the present session, each of the plurality of next session identifier consisting of a plurality of fields;
- a transmitting unit configured to transmit the present session identifier and the information to the server;
- and
- a session initiating unit configured to establish the present session between the server and the user device.
A computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon computer-executable instructions that, in response to execution, cause a first device to perform operations, comprising:
- generating information including at least a part of a next session identifier to be used in a next session between the first device and a second device, the next session following a present session between the first device and the second device;
- and
- transmitting the information to the second device.
