Abstract
Improved end-to-end server-client communication is achieved, wherein a thin client requests services from a server using a condensed optimized protocol. A mediator is provided on the server, which translates encoded messages from the client into standard web service request formats. Results are re-encoded at the server and returned to the client. A code generator is provided to automatically create optimized and specialized client and server code using templates, in which the code is optimized according to the characteristics of the client and the specified services. Grouped messages are supported. Bandwidth consumption is reduced by the technique, which increases the performance of resource-constrained clients, such as small wireless devices.
