Abstract
Systems and methods for automatically managing session resources in a distributed network of processors are disclosed. In one embodiment of the invention, a system for managing the use of resources in a system where a remote client uses resources at a server for a limited duration includes: a stored listing of at least one resource being used at the server and the client using that resource; a system which identifies that a remote client is no longer using resources at the server; and in response to the system identifying that the client is no longer using resources at the server, a mechanism which removes the resources which had been used by the client when the client was connected to the server, whereby the resources being used by a client may be used by other clients after the client has disconnected from the server.
