Abstract
A method for efficient utilization of available bandwidth over a data connection between a client computer and a server computer. An echo component on both the sending and receiving side of the connection registers a set of connection parameters, and stores a copy of the last transmitted request or response of the client and server computer systems. Once an echo component detects a duplicate data request or response, it simulates and transmits the last stored response back to the client or server computer system and notifies the remote side echo component to send data when it is ready. When non-duplicate data is ready to be transmitted, the local side echo component disables the loopback protocol then notifies the remote side to do the same and the data is transmitted.
