    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for balancing loads between mirror servers by being actively associated with a client. SOLUTION: A user can select any one of multiple mirror servers within the same Web page and can access the mirror server. This method includes a step 1 for transmitting not only the Web page but also a prescribed script to the client when the Web page is accessed by the client, a step 2 for automatically executing the script by the client so as to measure respective response times by establishing connections with the respective plural mirror servers, and a step 3 for selecting the mirror server of the shortest response time so that the user can access that mirror server.

    Abstract: The invention provides an open location management device, an open location management system and an open location management method, in which an open location management device receives a user location management request from a location information requester, and selects one location management provider from one or more location management providers to provide the user location information for the location information requestor. A unique user ID is assigned to each user in the system. By employing the invention, the location information requester can leverage the user location information provided by external location information providers, such that the burden of performing the location management of the location information requestor can be reduced.

    Abstract: An apparatus for providing responses for requests of an off-line client 92, comprising: a local request-response storage 703 which stores a plurality of requests and a plurality of responses; network traffic redirector 701, for redirecting requests of the client to the client machine itself by modifying system configuration of the client machine when the client is off-line and for redirecting requests of the client to the network connection 814 by resuming the system configuration of the client machine when the client leaves the off-line state and enters an on-line state; and a local off-line server 702, for receiving a request of the client redirected to the client machine itself, generating a response based on the request, the plurality of requests and the plurality of responses stored in the request-response storage, and returning the response to the client. The responses may be server responses intercepted while the client is on-line. Alternatively the responses may be user-defined.

    Abstract: A method for dynamically adding new functions for web pages comprises steps of: 1) capturing a web page which is returned to a web client 103 by a web server 104; 2) adding a new URL into intercepted web page, which directs to a predetermined processing server 102 utilized for implementing new functions, and thus forming a new web page; 3) returning the new web page to the web client; 4) implementing the new functions by the predetermined processing server if it receives a request sent by the web client based on the new URL. In step 2), the new URL may be used to replace an original URL for the purpose of linkage contained in an original hyperlink, or be directly added into a new hyperlink. The web page may be captured by a content conversion server 101. The method could be used for web page translation, collection of user information, online advertising management, and a billing system.
