Computer network providing transparent operation on a compute server and associated method

摘要

A method is provided for executing an application on a compute server of a computer network that includes the compute server and at least one client system, the method comprising the steps of: activating a process and a server thread running on the compute server; obtaining initial client context information from a context server running on the at least one client system; producing on the compute server a bound process bounded by the context server running on the at least one client system; executing the application in the bound process on the compute server; and in the course of the step of executing the bound process, obtaining additional client context information as requested by the application from the context server.
