Abstract

A system and method for handling queries where the queries and the answers to those queries are transmitted by means of a network which may have significantly variable latencies. The system and method involve copying the queries and calculating a response to each copy of the query and sending each response over the network. The first-received response can then be acted upon. The query may be divided up into sub-queries which are then replicated and sent for determination.
