SYSTEM AND METHOD OF INVOKING MULTIPLE REMOTE OPERATIONS

摘要

A remote execution agent, having low-latency access to the platform, receives from a remote application, across a communication channel imposing a round-trip delay, a plurality of invocation control directives. The remote execution agent invokes operations for execution on the platform in response to the invocation control directives, and aggregates results from the operations, returning the aggregated results to the application. In this manner, overhead such as communication round-trip delay, context switching, and the like, is reduced, compared to the application sending separate operation invocation requests to the platform and receiving the results of each. The remote execution agent manages operation results, such as passing results from a prior operation as parameters for a later one. In some embodiments, the invocation control directives include conditional operation invocation and branching.
