Appl. No.:

13/274248

Inventors:

Michael Luna - San Jose CA, US
Andrei Tsõmbaljuk - Tallinn, EE

Assignee:

Seven Networks, Inc. - Redwood City CA

International Classification:

G06F 15/16
G06F 15/173

US Classification:

709224, 709203, 709217, 709229

Abstract:

Systems and methods for application and network-based long poll request detection and cacheability assessment therefore are disclosed. In one aspect, embodiments of the present disclosure include a method, which may be implemented on a distributed proxy and cache system, including, determining relative timings between a first request initiated by the application, a response received responsive to the first request, and a second request initiated subsequent to the first request also by the application, and/or using the relative timings to determine whether requests generated by the application are long poll requests. The relative timings can be used to determine whether the second request is immediately or near-immediately re-requested after the response to the first request is received. The relative timings can also be compared to request-response timing characteristics for other applications to determine whether the requests of the application are long poll requests.

US Classification:

709213, 709217, 709219

Abstract:

Systems and methods for cache defeat detection are disclosed. In one aspect, embodiments of the present disclosure include a method, which may be implemented on a system, of resource management in a wireless network by caching content on a mobile device. The method can include detecting a data request to a content source for which content received is stored as cache elements in a local cache on the mobile device, determining, from an identifier of the data request, that a cache defeating mechanism is used by the content source, and/or retrieving content from the cache elements in the local cache to respond to the data request.

Assignee:

Seven Networks, Inc. - Redwood City CA

International Classification:

G06F 15/167

US Classification:

709213, 709217, 709219

Abstract:

Systems and methods for cache defeat detection are disclosed. Moreover, systems and methods for caching of content addressed by identifiers intended to defeat cache are further disclosed. In one aspect, embodiments of the present disclosure include a system for optimizing resources in a mobile network, by for example performing one or more of, identifying a parameter in an identifier used in multiple polling requests to a given content source; means for, detecting that the parameter in the identifier changes for each of the polling requests; determining whether responses received from the given content source are the same for each of the multiple polling requests; and/or caching the responses on the mobile device in response to determining that the responses received for the given content source are the same.

Appl. No.:

13/451340

Inventors:

Michael Luna - San Jose CA, US
Ross Bott - Half Moon Bay CA, US

Assignee:

Seven Networks Inc. - Redwood City CA

International Classification:

G06F 15/167

US Classification:

709216, 709201, 709202, 709203, 709217, 709219, 709224, 709226, 709248

Abstract:

Systems and methods of social caching for device resource sharing and management are disclosed. In one embodiment, a system includes a local proxy which wirelessly accesses the physical storage of other device via a wireless network to cache the response or content for the mobile device, in response to detecting commonalities between the mobile device and the other device. The commonalities can include, for example, common interests in users of the mobile device and the other device.

Abstract:

Systems and methods for distributed management of keep-alive message signaling for mobile network resource conservation and optimization are disclosed. In one aspect, embodiments of the present disclosure include a method, which may be implemented on a system, of monitoring rates of data communications with a mobile device, sending a periodic message to indicate operational state to the mobile device in response to a decrease in the rates of data communications with the mobile device, sending subsequent periodic messages to indicate operational state to the mobile device at increasing intervals between the subsequent periodic messages to decrease a number of periodic messages sent over the wireless network, and acknowledging to the mobile device that the subsequent periodic messages will be sent at increased intervals, or in a manner that conserves use of the mobile network.

Abstract:

Systems and methods for aligning data transfer to optimize connections established for transmission over a wireless network are disclosed. In one aspect, embodiments of the present disclosure include a method, which may be implemented on a system, for aligning data transfer to a mobile device to optimize connections made by the mobile device in a cellular network. The method includes batching data received in multiple transactions directed to a mobile device for transmission to the mobile device over the cellular network such that a wireless connection need not be established with the mobile device every time each of the multiple transactions occurs. For example, the data received in the multiple transactions for the mobile device can be sent to the mobile device, in a single transaction over a single instantiation of wireless network connectivity at the mobile device.
