20120324043 | ACCESS TO NETWORK CONTENT - A method and system for improving access to network content are described. Aspects of the disclosure minimize the delay between a navigation event and a network response by prerendering the next navigation event. For example, the method and system may predict a likely next uniform resource locator during web browsing to preemptively request content from the network before the user selects the corresponding link on a web page. The methods and systems describe a variety of manners for prerendering content and managing and configuring prerendering operations. | 12-20-2012 |
20130191360 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR IMPROVING ACCESS TO SEARCH RESULTS - Aspects of the disclosure provide a system and method for prerendering of search result pages. A search engine may process search queries received from a client. The search engine may determine one or more search results in response to the search query. One or more of the search results may be associated with prerender instructions, such that when the search results are received by the client, the client prerenders the search results associated with the prerender instructions. Prerender instructions may be associated with the search results in various manners, including ranking the search results based on relevance, or ranking the search results based on the likelihood of selection. Metrics and analytical data may be collected from the client to improve the search result prerendering process. | 07-25-2013 |
20140281032 | RESOLVING A HOST EXPRESSION TO AN INTERNET PROTOCOL ADDRESS - Systems and methods for resolving a request associated with a host expression to an Internet Protocol (IP) address are provided. In some aspects, a request for content from a content server is transmitted from a client computing device. The request is associated with a host expression of the content server. A message including the requested content and an indication of an Internet Protocol (IP) address set of a DNS resolution of the host expression of the content server is received in response to the request. The requested content includes text or an image. The IP address set of the DNS resolution of the host expression of the content server is stored in a local memory of the client computing device. The IP address set is stored for resolution of future requests associated with the host expression of the content server locally at the client computing device. | 09-18-2014 |
20150193547 | ACCESS TO NETWORK CONTENT - A method and system for improving access to network content are described. Aspects of the disclosure minimize the delay between a navigation event and a network response by prerendering the next navigation event. For example, the method and system may predict a likely next uniform resource locator during web browsing to preemptively request content from the network before the user selects the corresponding link on a web page. The methods and systems describe a variety of manners for prerendering content and managing and configuring prerendering operations. | 07-09-2015 |
