Patent

CA 2397849

The present invention relates generally to computer networks, and more specifically, to a system and method of rationalizing the different formats in which data is transferred between parties in a data communication network. For example, on the server side of a communication, information requests are sent (22) which identify the information required and specify the format the information is to be returned in. A Media Agent on the client responds to the information request by obtaining (26) and automatically formatting (28) the identified information into the format requested by the server. If new drivers are required, the Media Agent may seek out those drivers from trusted sources on the Internet. The invention also allows other functionality, such as the server accessing physical devices on the client side, and the server interrogating the Media Agent for user preferences.

L'invention concerne globalement des réseaux informatiques, et notamment un système et un procédé de rationalisation de différents formats dans lesquels les données sont transférées entre des parties dans un réseau de communication de données. Par exemple, du côté serveur d'une communication, les demandes d'informations sont envoyées, demandes identifiant les informations requises et spécifiant le format dans lequel les informations doivent être renvoyées. Un <= Agent Media >= côté client répond à la demande d'informations en obtenant et en formatant automatiquement les informations identifiées dans le format demandé par le serveur. Si des nouveaux pilotes sont nécessaires, l'Agent Media peut rechercher lesdits pilotes dans des sources fiables sur Internet. D'autres fonctionnalités, telles que le serveur, peuvent accéder aux dispositifs physiques du côté client et le serveur peut interroger l'Agent Media pour connaître les préférences de l'utilisateur.
