Abstract
A system and method provide access by a web application running on a host computing device in communication with a remote server to a native binary DLL. A browser extension to the web application and a native messaging application communicate with the browser extension via standard input/output. A long-running computational process on the host computing device configured as a wrapper for the binary DLL is executable by the host computing device. The native messaging application and the long-running computational process communicate with one another via a named pipe, and the long-running computational process duration is independent of the native messaging application duration.
