ABSTRACT:
A broker for the management of client requests issued by a client computer over a client-server network. Depending on its availability of resources, the broker determines whether to respond to the client request, or hand-off the client request to another server. The broker supports a virtual connection between the client and the other server, without interfering with communication protocols or disrupting client requests. The other server fulfills client requests by operating in place of the broker. The server terminates the virtual connection when all client requests have been completely fulfilled.
