Method and apparatus for providing increased content from a resource constrained device

摘要

A Web-based peripheral management solution based upon JAVA applets and a top-level user interface (UI) generator located on a content server includes HTTP daemons (i.e. Web servers) which run on both a peripheral device interface and a host machine content server. Web browser accesses to the peripheral device HTTP daemon for peripheral or other content are redirected by the peripheral device HTTP daemon to a content server where the actual HTML or JAVA applet files are stored. The peripheral device interface also generates HTML stub files to aid in redirecting accesses to JAVA applets on the content server.
