摘要

A method provides a content provider with a new way to provide acceleration services and it also provides a user with an easy way to utilize the acceleration services. In more detail, the user can transparently deploy an appropriate accelerating client to his/hers terminal, such as a mobile phone or a laptop. After the deployment the accelerating client is integrated into an application installed in the terminal. The application may be, for example, a browser or a media player. The accelerating client according to the invention is a helper object, a plug-in, or Java applet/application. Especially, the helper object spends less processing capacity of a terminal than the prior art accelerating client implemented as a standalone application.
