ABSTRACT:
A system and method for executing a computer program in a network. The system includes a surrogate proxy processor which, when executing the computer program, is programmed to receive at least one foveated image from at least one of the foveating proxy server and a further device that is connected to the foveating proxy server, wherein the foveating proxy server generates the at least one foveated image, and transmit the foveated image to at least one of the client computer and a another device. In addition, a system is provided which includes a foveating proxy server, and at least two surrogate proxy servers communicating with one another. At least one of the at least two surrogate proxy servers communicates with the foveating proxy server, and another one of the at least two proxy servers communicates with at least one of the client computer and a further device, wherein the at least two surrogate proxy servers are cascaded along a multi-hop portion of the network.
