MOBILE APPLICATION TRAFFIC OPTIMIZATION
First Claim
1. A system with distributed proxy for reducing traffic in a wireless network to satisfy data requests made by a mobile application the system, comprising:
- a mobile device having a local proxy for intercepting a data request made by the mobile application;
the local proxy simulating application server responses for the mobile application on the mobile device for data requests where responses are available in the local cache;
a proxy server coupled to the mobile device and an application server to which the data request is made;
wherein, the proxy server is able to communicate with the local proxy , the local proxy forwards the data request to the proxy server for transmission to the application server for a response to the data request;
wherein, the proxy server queries the application server independent of activities of the mobile application for any changes to the data request that the mobile application has previously made and notifies the local proxy of such changes.

Abstract
A system with distributed proxy for reducing traffic in a wireless network to satisfy data requests made by a mobile application the system is provided. The system includes a mobile device having a local proxy for intercepting a data request made by the mobile application where the local proxy simulating application server responses for the mobile application on the mobile device for data requests where responses are available in the local cache. A proxy server is coupled to the mobile device and an application server to which the data request is made. The proxy server is able to communicate with the local proxy where the local proxy forwards the data request to the proxy server for transmission to the application server for a response to the data request. The proxy server queries the application server independent of activities of the mobile application for any changes to the data request that the mobile application has previously made and notifies the local proxy of such changes.

4. A system with distributed proxy for reducing network resources used for keep-alive messages in a wireless network, the system, comprising:
-
a mobile device having a local proxy; a proxy server coupled to the local proxy and a content server to which application requests from the mobile device are directed; wherein, the proxy server is able to communicate with the local proxy, the local proxy prevents keep-alive messages from being sent from the mobile device over the wireless network; wherein, the proxy server generates the keep-alive messages to maintain connectivity with the content server. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6, 7, 8)
