Reducing latency for served applications by anticipatory preprocessing

A system for reducing latency for served applications by anticipatory preprocessing, comprising:

• at least one communication component configured to communicate with at least one client;
• at least one non-transitory storage medium that stores at least one series of instructions;
• and
• at least one processing unit that executes the at least one series of instructions to:
• transmit at least one first state of at least one application hosted by the at least one processing unit to the at least one client via the at least one communication component;
• determine that at least one expected client response from the at least one client to the at least one first state will be at least one of a finite set of possible client responses;
• generate at least one additional state of the at least one application utilizing at least one possible client response from the finite set of possible client responses prior to receiving the at least one expected client response from the at least one client via the at least one communication component;
• and
• provide the at least one additional state to the at least one client via the at least one communication component,
• wherein the at least one processing unit provides the at least one additional state to the at least one client via the at least one communication component prior to receiving one of the finite set of possible client responses.

A computer program product comprising:

• a first set of instructions, stored in at least one non-transitory machine readable medium, executable by at least one processing unit to transmit at least one first state of at least one application from at least one server, which hosts the at least one application, to at least one client;
• and
• a second set of instructions, stored in the at least one non-transitory machine readable medium, executable by the at least one processing unit to determine that at least one expected client response from the at least one client to the at least one first state will be at least one of a finite set of possible client responses;
• a third set of instructions, stored in the at least one non-transitory machine readable medium, executable by the at least one processing unit to generate at least one additional state of the at least one application utilizing at least one possible client response from the finite set of possible client responses prior to receiving the at least one expected client response from the at least one client;
• and
• a fourth set of instructions, stored in the at least one non-transitory machine readable medium, executable by the at least one processing unit to provide the at least one additional state to the at least one client prior to receiving one of the finite set of possible client responses.
