1. Field of the Invention
The present invention generally relates to mobile computing and, more particularly, to optimization of mobile data communications.
2. Background Art
As mobile computing platforms become increasingly ubiquitous, and with the availability of network access for the mobile computing platforms, it becomes desirable to provide users with as close an approximation to the experience of a full-featured computing platform as possible. In order to conserve space and battery power, mobile computing platforms, such as personal digital assistants (“PDAs”), frequently have small display screens, limited memory, limited processing power, and limited communications bandwidth. Such features of mobile computing platforms are often incompatible with the goal of providing users with a full-featured experience.
In order to improve the experience, intervening gateway devices have been employed for the purpose of optimizing data, such as a web page, being transmitted to a PDA. This transformation helps preserve the look-and-feel of many web pages, particularly those designed specifically for, display on a PDA device, while simultaneously allowing the PDA to accomplish its goals related to portability.
One area that has been neglected thus far, and which is necessary to present a rich, interactive experience to a user engaging in data exchange with a server is the ability to rapidly update data as it is viewed by a user. For example, a user wishing to review his stock portfolio on a PDA is presented with a static list of his stock prices. If the user wishes to update the page to obtain the most recent stock prices, the user must refresh the page, causing the entire page to be downloaded again to the PDA. This process is extremely cumbersome for a device facing significant bandwidth, memory, and processing limitations.
Accordingly, what is desired is a system, method, and computer program product for the update of dynamic data within a web page on a mobile computing platform.
The invention includes a computer-implemented method for updating a document in a computing device, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. The method includes the steps of requesting the document from a document gateway, wherein the document comprises a callback function, the callback function operable to replace an object within the document with updated data, receiving the document from the document gateway, displaying the document within a client software, receiving an interface script from the document gateway, triggering an update request for the object within the interface script, wherein the update request comprises a reference to the callback function, requesting updated data for the object at the interface script using an interface library from a document server, wherein the interface script accesses the interface library using an interface library wrapper, receiving the updated data at the interface library, wherein the interface library is operable to forward the updated data to the interface script, receiving the updated data at the interface script, wherein the interface script is operable to notify the callback function of the updated data in order to replace the object with the updated data, and displaying the updated document within the client software.
The invention further includes a computer program product comprising a computer usable medium having computer program logic recorded thereon for enabling a processor to update a document in a computing device, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.

The increasing availability of wireless access to the Internet has created a significant market for portable computing devices with wireless access capabilities.
Traditionally, such compact portable computing devices, commonly termed hand-held devices or personal digital assistants (“PDAs”), have had less computational power than larger computing platforms, such as laptops or personal computers (“PCs”). Due to this limited computing power, as well as other features inherent to a portable computing platform such as smaller display screens, custom applications have been developed for purposes such as optimizing the display of web pages, reducing CPU usage, reducing the quantity of network accesses, and increasing battery life.
Of particular concern to the present invention is the reduction of network accesses, among other features. One skilled in the relevant arts will appreciate that, accordingly, the techniques described herein need not be limited to a portable computing device, but can in fact be used in any computing situation where similar resource utilization problems are posed.
PDA device 102 is operable to execute client software 104. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, client software 104 is a web browser. PDA device 102 is connected to the Internet 108 through a gateway server 106. One or more web servers, such as web server 110, are available for access through the Internet 108. One skilled in the relevant arts will appreciate that any network, such as a corporate intranet, may be used instead of the Internet 108. Furthermore, gateway server 106 is operable to support connections from multiple PDA devices such as PDA device 102, but only a single PDA device 102 is shown for purposes of illustration.
With continued reference to
With the request generated in client software 104, PDA device 102 is operable to transmit the request to gateway server 106 at step 204. The means of transmission of the request between PDA device 102 and gateway server 106 depends on the networking capabilities of the PDA device 102. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, the request is transmitted using a wireless local access network (“WLAN”). In accordance with an additional embodiment of the present invention, the request is transmitted using cellular telephony communications. One skilled in the relevant arts will appreciate that additional means for the transmission of the request are contemplated by this invention, and should not be limited to any particular wireless technology. Furthermore, continued reference to wireless communications will be made for the purpose of illustration, as PDA devices such as PDA device 102 are more likely to have wireless connectivity than wired connectivity, but the same principles can be applied regardless of the connectivity medium.
Gateway server 106, upon receiving the request, acts as the intermediary between the PDA device 102 and the web server 110 containing the requested data, such as a web page. Gateway server 106 then requests the page from web server 110 over a network, such as Internet 108, at step 206. Web server 110 provides a copy of the web page to gateway server 106. Gateway server 106 caches and modifies the web page at step 208 for display on the PDA device 102 and sends this modified page to the client software 104 running on the PDA device 102 at step 210.
The manner in which gateway server 106 modifies the web page for display on the PDA device 102 depends on the capacities of the PDA device 102. As previously noted, PDA device 102 may have a small display device, limited graphical capabilities, limited communication bandwidth capabilities, or other resource limitations preventing the display of a richly detailed web page in its native form.
When gateway server 106 receives a web page from web server 110, it caches and modifies the page at step 208, as noted above, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. When a page is cached, a subsequent request at step 204 will result in the gateway server 106 checking for a cached version of the requested page and, if it is cached, sending the cached page to the client at step 210. This allows the gateway server 106 to skip steps 206 and 208, eliminating communications between the gateway server 106 and the web server 110 for that particular page.
However, many web pages are frequently updated, and it is beneficial to provide a mechanism by which the gateway server 106 can ensure that its cached copy of a page is equivalent to the most recent copy hosted by the web server 110. In accordance with an additional embodiment of the present invention, a cache invalidation mechanism is provided through the use, for example, of an expiry time for the cached page, the expiry time obtained from the web server 110 when the page is requested. In accordance with a further embodiment of the present invention, the cache invalidation mechanism conforms to HTTP standards for expiration and validation of a web page. One skilled in the relevant arts will appreciate that such mechanism may include, for example, requesting a timestamp from the web server 110 representing the modification date and time for the requested page and comparing it to the date and time the cached version of the page was retrieved. Other such mechanisms will be apparent to those skilled in the relevant arts.
This request mechanism can be used not only on traditional web pages, but also on other data files, such as graphics and other text documents. Often, such additional data files are requested by the gateway server 106 from the web server 110 upon encountering a reference to the additional data files within an initial web page. Accordingly, gateway server 106 is operable to retrieve any data files available on web server 110 and can apply the above mechanisms to their retrieval, caching, and presentation. For example, a web page to be displayed on PDA device 102 may contain the underlying markup text as well as a number of graphics. Step 208 allows the gateway server 106 to cache each of the graphics files as well as the web page itself and to modify the entire web page presentation, including the graphics and any other elements, for presentation on the client software 104.
With continued reference to
Furthermore, client software 304 is equipped with its own cache, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. As previously detailed, PDA device 302 is often limited in resources when compared with other computing devices, and accordingly PDA device 302 may not have sufficient memory resources to cache a significant number of web pages and elements included in the web pages. Methods for verifying whether the client software 304 contains the most recent version of a web page are similar to those disclosed for purposes of the cache available at the gateway server 306. Indeed, based on the teachings provided herein, it would be apparent to one skilled in the relevant arts to apply those techniques to any caching system located in the data path between a client requesting the data and a server serving the data, such as client software 304 and web server 310.
A typical web server 310 can be further separated into modules for controlling input and output 316 and for processing requests 314, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. One skilled in the relevant arts will appreciate that, in such an example, web server 310 refers to the physical computing device acting as a web server and all of the software executing on it. Furthermore, I/O module 316 would be, in the example, the web server software itself. For example, I/O module 316 could be Microsoft Corporation's Internet Information Services (“IIS”) web server or the Apache Software Foundation's Apache web server. Request processing module 314 in the example is a module used for the provision of dynamic data to the I/O module 316. For example, request processing module could comprise processing software, such as the PHP: Hypertext Processor, and a database, such as those available from Sybase, Inc. One skilled in the relevant arts will appreciate that a number of acceptable substitutes are available and that the particular software named herein is provided by way of example and not limitation.
Tremendous inefficiencies occur when, for example, only a small amount of data contained within a page needs to be updated. The combination of request processing module 314 with I/O module 316 in modern web development has resulted in many web pages having dynamic elements within an otherwise mostly static web page. These elements are generally snippets of text, such as a stock quote, sports score, weather report, or news headline, but can be other elements as well, such as images as with CAPTCHA images.
In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, object request module 312 is provided within PDA device 302 for the purpose of reducing the inefficiency of updating small amounts of data within an otherwise static document.
Documents, such as web pages, provided to client software 304 have a number of objects identified within them. In a web page displaying financial information about a share of stock, such an object may be, for example, the current price of a share. This information is highly dynamic in nature whenever markets are open, and as such are constantly being updated. Object request module 312 is operable to retrieve individual objects, such as the current share price, over the Internet 308 from the web server 310. This updated object can then be replaced within the document in which it is located, such as the web page, to give the user a copy of the most recent document without the need to reload the entire document.
Elements 406, 408, and 410 are examples of data objects that are constantly being updated, at least while the markets are open. Elements 412 and 414 are examples of data objects that are only moderately dynamic, each only changing once per day in which the markets are open. The remaining elements of web page 404, including text such as “Last Trade” and “Trade Time” are completely static, and retrieving this text repeatedly would promote wasteful resource usage.
With continued reference to
By performing the steps of flowchart 200, an entire web page such as web page 404 is obtained from web server 310. Elements on this page, such as element 406, are obtained together with the web page 404 and contain the data available at the time of the request. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, page elements which are dynamic in nature, such as page element 406, are provided by request processing module 314 to I/O module 316 as they are generated. Accordingly, request processing module 314 is operable to provide the most recently available data for page element 406 at the time that a request is made.
With object request module 312 available, it is possible to update individual page elements, such as element 406, without the need to retrieve the entire page 404 again. Object request module 312 is operable to determine that element 406 is an updating element. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, client software 304 tells object request module 312 that element 406 must be updated at a certain interval. At each interval, object request module 312 connects to web server 310 over the Internet 308 and requests only the data it seeks to update, such as that contained within element 406. In an alternative embodiment, client software 304 tells object request module 312 whenever it wishes to update element 406 (on-demand update as opposed to a scheduled update).
In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, a request by the object request module 312 can be for only a particular page element, such as element 406, or for all updatable page elements, such as elements 406-414. The result data is provided to the object request module 312 in any format which is accessible by the object request module 312. In accordance with an additional embodiment of the present invention, the result data is provided as an XML document. In accordance with a further embodiment of the present invention, the result data is provided as a simple text string. One skilled in the relevant arts will appreciate that any format which object request module 312 has been programmed to accept may be applied to the result data provided to it by web server 310.
Upon receipt of the result data, object request module 312 notifies client software 304 that it has received an update, and sends this data to the client software 304 for display within the appropriate location in the document. In the example web page 404 shown in
In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, object request module 312 of
The interaction of the various components will now be described. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, client 602 sends gateway server 608 a request page message 612. Assuming this data has not been previously cached (as previously disclosed), gateway server 608 sends a request page message 614 to web server 610. Web server 610 replies to gateway server 608 with the page in a reply message 616. At this point, gateway 608 will cache a version of the page and modify it for display on client 602. A reply 618 to request 612 with the modified page is sent by the gateway server 608 back to the client 602.
Referring again to
The remaining interactions in
In the particular implementation in
With continuing reference to
MBA server 706 requests a page with request page message 614 from web server 710. Web server 710 obtains the necessary data from request processing module 714 for providing the web page, and replies to MBA server 706 in a reply message 616 with the requested page. MBA server 706 caches and modifies the requested page to generate a channel and provides the channel to MBA client software 704. In the example shown in
With the channel available to MBA client software 704, the next step is to update any dynamic objects within the channel. The update is initiated by a request for update 620 by the MBA client software 704 at the request of channel 720. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, the request is performed by registering an event occurring at a particular interval which calls a function within script 722. One skilled in the relevant arts will appreciate that any number of methods exist by which a particular function in script 722 can be initiated. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, channel 720 is a web page in HTML format with Cascading Style Sheets (“CSS”) and script 722 is written using the JavaScript programming language.
Accordingly, a number of other programmatic methods of calling an update function are available such as, for example, the OnLoad( ) and OnClick( ) methods which cause a function to be triggered upon the loading of a page element or upon a user click on a page element, respectively.
When the update function within script 722 is called at the request of channel 720, as in request 620, script 722 is further notified of a callback function within script 722. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, channel 720 comprises a JavaScript function acting as the callback function, a reference to which is passed to the script 722 upon a request for update. The callback function is operable to update a particular element within channel 720 when script 722 utilizes the callback function to provide updated data to channel 720. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, the element to be updated is specified within the callback function using HTML attributes and the Document Object Model (“DOM”), although one skilled in the relevant arts will appreciate that any designation that can be programmatically recognized can be used. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, a reference to the callback function is retained by script 722 so that the script knows how to pass subsequent data updates back to the channel 720 for display.
In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, script 722 then requests an update of the data element with request 622 from library 724. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, and as previously disclosed, library 724 may be located within client software 704 or may be external to it, and may further be integrated with framework 712 if the framework is also provided by the developer of client software 704. Library 724 acts as a wrapper library for framework 712, enabling the functionality needed by script 722 for requesting those elements that are to be updated from web server 710. One skilled in the relevant arts will appreciate that techniques such as the DOM can be used to identify particular data elements within a web page to be updated by script 724.
Library 724 then tells framework 712 that it needs a certain dataset which can be retrieved from web server 710. This request 624, Ajax Update call 730, requests only the necessary data from the web server 710. Web server 710 replies 626 with the requested data to the framework 712. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, the requested data is in XML format. One skilled in the relevant arts will appreciate that the requested data can be in any format where the data of relevance to the updated data element is discernable. This data is then forwarded 628, using library wrapper 724, to script 722. One skilled in the relevant arts will appreciate that this forwarding can occur in a number of ways, including, but not limited to, the registering of a callback function within the script 722 with library 724 that library 724 can pass the updated data to when it is ready.
With the updated data now available to script 722, the channel data 720 is updated 630. This is accomplished within script 722 by calling the previously specified callback function located within channel 720 and passing the updated data to the callback function. The callback function is then operable to locate the element to be replaced and to replace it with the updated data. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, the element is labeled using HTML attributes. One skilled in the relevant arts will appreciate that any method of identifying and replacing the updated element may be used.
In accordance with a further embodiment of the present invention, requests over Ajax Update call 730 to the web server include a parameter indicating what data is desired. This data is used by the web server 710 to indicate to request processing module 714 that it should only provide the requested data. Accordingly, the result returned from web server 710 is usually a minimal amount of data relative to retrieving the entire channel 720. One skilled in the relevant arts will further appreciate that it is also possible to retrieve the entire channel 720 over Ajax Update 730 and then use script 722 to only update those parts of channel 720 which have changed, but this method lacks some of the benefits of requesting only the updated data from the web server 710.
In accordance with an additional embodiment of the present invention, script 722 is not integrated into client software 704 and is instead retrieved together with channel 720 from web server 710 via MBA server 706. Through the use of a common script 722 reusable by several channels such as channel 720, each channel is operable to register callback functions with script 722 that update different elements within channel 720 without the need for a developer of channel 720 to rewrite parts of script 722.
When an Ajax Update 830 is performed, the retrieved data is received by framework 812 and wrapper library 824 accordingly. This data is then forwarded to MBA server 806 as an incremental update 832, which MBA server 806 incorporates into its cached version of the page, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. MBA server 806 can then indicate that it has the most recent version of the page, should a subsequent request for the page be received from client 804.
In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, data updates using Ajax technology are performed on a wirelessly networked PDA device. The wireless PDA device may be networked using, for example, WLAN or cellular telephony communications. One problem with wireless communications is the lack of availability in certain locations, though availability problems apply to networked communications as well. In accordance with a further embodiment of the present invention, the PDA device is operable to queue Ajax data update requests for future transmission and update in the event that the PDA device is unable to establish communications with a source server.
One benefit to queuing data requests is that it allows users to continue performing tasks even if they do not immediately have access to a network and cannot see the results of their requests reflected immediately. Such behavior can lead to reduced frustration by a user with the system.
In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, preferences may be set either by a user or client software governing how data updates are performed.
Preferences 1234 are used in order to control what data is subject to updating through the use, for example, of Ajax technology, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. For example, if channel 1220 is a channel for the display of stock information, a user may enter into preferences 1234 those stocks for which an update should be performed, limiting the amount of data requested in an Ajax update. The user, client software 1204, or channel 1220 may elect to set other available parameters such as, for example, the frequency of Ajax updates, whether or not to synchronize an MBA server with data received in an Ajax update, and other functionality as appropriate. One skilled in the relevant arts will appreciate that many of the aforementioned functions performed in an Ajax update can be adjusted for performance through the use of a preferences module such as preferences 1234, and that the benefit of such adjustments may depend on the particular needs of channel 1220.
