A method for transmitting messages from a server to a client in an internet transmission system includes: (a) the client sends to the server a request for transmitting a picture file, (b) in response to the reception of the request the server generates a picture file with a first content, in case that no message is available for the client, and delays the transmission of the picture file to the client for a time interval, (c) in response to the reception of the picture file with the first content, the client again sends a request for sending (transmitting) a picture file, (d) the steps (a) to (c) are repeated till, upon the last request, a message is available at the server for transmission to the client, (e) the server transmits, in response to the last request of the client, the picture file with a second content, (f) in response to the reception of the picture file with the second content, the client then sends a request for transmitting the message, (g) in response to the reception of the request for transmitting the message, the server then transmits the message to the client.

Transmitting messages in an internet transmission system

Method for executing applications on electronic devices, wherein a first application () on a first electronic device () controls the execution of a second application () on a second electronic device (), and a first server () provides an environment for executing the second application (), wherein the method includes the steps of: executing the first application () on the first electronic device (); initiating the execution of the second application () by the first electronic device; coupling of the first electronic device () to the second electronic device (); providing the environment for executing the second application () by the first server (); and executing the second application () on the second electronic device ().

Provision of applications on multiple electronic devices

In a peer-to-peer (P2P) system, in each individual transmitting peer (), the incoming data stream is divided logically and with regard to time into different parts, which are buffered in a volatile memory () and are transmitted to the receiving peers () on different paths by means of a peer-to-peer transmission mechanism (). In a receiving peer (), the received parts of the subdivided data stream are buffered in a volatile memory () and are reassembled into a complete data stream. Further, in the receiving peer (), the parts of the subdivided data stream, buffered by the volatile memory (), are copied into a persistent memory (), from where they are copied back into the volatile memory () at a later point in time if necessary. A fraction of the received data is excluded from persistent storing by selecting parts of the subdivided data stream.
