Title:
METHOD, SYSTEM AND DEVICE FOR TIME-DELAYING A DATA PACKET FLOW
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005086455
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device which is disposed such as to cut through a computer network and which is traversed by a data packet flow. The objectives of the inventive device comprise the analysis and/or the selective modification and/or the selective filtering of the data packet flow. The invention consists in temporarily holding back all or part of the data passing through the device, such as application layer data, in a manner that is transparent for the transmitter and the receiver of the data packet flow and independent of the time-delayed data. The size of the timed data is dynamically adapted to the objectives of the device. The invention enables the device to achieve the above-mentioned objectives while minimising the necessary computer resources, memory and/or computing power and improving the performances of the device.
