    Abstract: In order to transparently redirect an HTTP connection request that is directed to an origin server (107) to a proxy cache (110-1), a proxy redirector (104) translates the destination address of packets directed to the origin server to the address of the proxy. During a handshaking procedure, a TCP connection is transparently established between the client (110-1) and the proxy cache. When the client transmits a GET request to what it thinks is the origin server, which request specifies the complete address of an object at that origin server that it wants a copy of, the proxy redirector modifies the complete address specified in that GET request before it is sent to the proxy cache. Specifically, the IP address of the origin server found in the destination field in the IP header of the one or more packets from the client containing the GET request is added by the proxy redirector as a prefix to the complete URL in the GET request to form an absolute URL. The proxy cache determines from that absolute URL whether it has the requested object stored in its cache. If it does, it sends the object back to the proxy redirector, which masquerades those packets as coming from the origin server by translating their destination address to the address of the client and their source address to that of the origin server. If the proxy does not have the requested object, a separate TCP connection is established between the proxy and the origin server from where the object is retrieved and then forwarded over the TCP connection between the client and the proxy. In order to account for the additional number of bytes in the GET request, an acknowledgement sequence number in packets returned from the proxy that logically follow receipt of the GET request are decremented by that number by the proxy redirector before being forwarded to the client. Similarly, a sequence number in packets transmitted by the client subsequent to the GET request are incremented by that number before being forwarded by the proxy redirector to the proxy cache.

    Abstract: The invention provides a software instrumentation tool operative to control the execution of a target program, and to execute user-specified instrumentation actions upon occurrence of corresponding user-specified events during target program execution. Advantageously, the instrumentation tool permits the instrumentation actions to be implemented without modification of the target program code, and can be used to provide any desired type of instrumentation on any target program. In an illustrative embodiment, the instrumentation tool includes a frontend portion which provides a creation graphical user interface (GUI) to the tool, and a backend portion which controls execution of the target program and executes the user-specified actions. The frontend portion also includes, for a given target program, a created GUI which is created by a user for providing selected instrumentation functions for the given target program. The frontend and backend portions of the instrumentation tool may each be running on a different machine, or both may run on the same machine. The invention may be used in a wide variety of applications, including application program modification and management, fault tolerance, real-time collaboration, process monitoring, software rejuvenation and graphical interface generation.
