Abstract:
1. A system for providing information to a client apparatus and permitting the client apparatus to operate with at least one associated client device connected to the client apparatus, said client apparatus including a browser configured to search information content available on a network to select desired services to be performed by the at least one associated client apparatus and a client for the at least one associated client device, the system comprising: a view server configured to respond to a first communication device from said browser requesting starting a selected service requiring the client for the at least one associated client device to be initialized and to provide a further communication to an application server to start a process for initializing the client for the at least one associated client device; the application server being configured to respond to the further communication from said view server to start an open operation for initializing the client for the at least one associated client device and to send a return initialize client instruction to the view server; the view server being further configured to respond to the return initialize client instructions from the application server and to communicate the initialize client instruction to the browser; the browser being further configured to respond to the initialize client instruction by instructing a client start-up, said client responding to said browser instructing client start-up by establishing a connection with a communication server; the communication server being configured to respond to the client establishing connection therewith with a client start-up report to the application server; and the application server being further configured to connect to an application object and request the communication server to establish a connection with a secure application module (SAM), upon completion of the establishment of the connection with the SAM, the SAM being configured to notify said communication server and the communication server being further configured to notify the application server of the establishment of the connection with the SAM and the communication server being further configured to then report the establishment of the connection of the associated client device and the connection to the application object to the application server to thereby provide synchronization between the communication server and the view server.
