Adaptive optimization of client caching of distributed objects

摘要

A system and method for adaptive optimization of client caching of distributed objects (306) in a client server computer system (300) is operational such that when a client system (302) requests multiple objects (306) from an associated server (304), a subset of the selected object attributes is initially transmitted to the client (302) and cached locally prior to display of certain ones of the object attributes for operation. If a user operation then requires the fetch of an additional attribute for one of the requested objects, it is either fetched from the client cache (302) if already cached, or automatically and transparently fetched from the server (304) for subsequent caching at the client (302), whereupon the additional attribute is then displayed. In those instances wherein a particular client (302) in the client-server computer system (300) commits a change to any of the object attributes, the associated server (304) then updates its own data and notifies any other clients and their applications that also have the particular object attribute to update their local cache as well.
