PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and a system for delay distribution of a resource. SOLUTION: By this method, a server can delay distribution of a resource to a request from a client. When the client requests a function requiring a server resource, the server receives the request from the clients to confirm it, while the client is prevented from using the requested function until further notification is sent from the server. Afterward, the server distributes the resource necessary for supporting a request from the client only when the resource becomes available. Until then, the server maintains communication session without supporting the request. The client can omits repeating of the request if the server cannot satisfy the request instantly. Instead, the server receives the request, and when a sufficient resource becomes available, the server starts supporting the request. COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI |
