Abstract :
As the variety of web client devices proliferates, web developers are often required to implement different versions of their applications to support both high-end and low-end devices. Based on existing web standards, we propose a new web application framework that allows web worker processes to be offloaded from weak clients to powerful servers in a seamless manner. As a result, developers can simply create applications that target on high-end devices, and expect our framework to help low-end devices run their applications through process offloading.
