    Abstract: A secure method and system for accessing a cache for web session is provided using web browser cookies. The cache for the web session data uses an encoded identifier, determined using for example the Keyed-Hash Message Authentication Code, based on information identifying a client. The client communication is accompanied by a cookie (persistent stat e object) that also includes the identifier encoded in the same manner. This encoded identifier in the received cookie is used for accessing the cached data. Where a secure communication channel is available, such as a secure socket layer (SSL connection), a second cookie which is only transmitted over SSL is used as a signature for the first cookie.

    Abstract: A system and method for handling multiple identical requests received by a server from a client by a web application server. When multiple requests for the same URL are received by a web application server from the same client browser which results in the allocation of multiple threads on the server to handle the requests, a response to the client is obtained from the processing carried out by the first thread launched by the web application server. Results of t he initial thread are passed to the client using the last opened connection between the client and server relating to the client's request for the URL. Other threads are placed in a wait state and are deallocated, at the earliest opportunity, where possible.
