Abstract

A method for bidirectional gating between low parallelity devices in a network and a remote server with a higher parallelity capability. The method comprises: (a) intercepting a plurality of requests for a same content item stored on a remote server from a plurality of devices, said requests in a low parallelity protocol; (b) storing said requests as stored requests; (c) translating one of said requests to a high parallelity protocol to produce a translated request and relaying said translated request to said remote server; (d) additionally intercepting a response to said translated request from said remote server in, said response in said higher parallelity protocol; (e) additionally translating said response to said low parallelity protocol to produce a translated response and storing said translated response; and (f) filling each of said stored requests with said translated response.
