Abstract

A network resource communication system facilitates communication over a network between network terminals and network resources, and comprises a network resource driver, a driver administrator, and a data transmitter. The network resource driver facilitates communication of source data between the network terminals and one of the network resources, and includes a driver input for receiving the source data and a driver output for providing a translation of the source data in accordance with the network resource. The driver administrator is in communication with a resource registry, and includes resource records associated with the network resources. The resourc e records define at least a resource type for each network resource, and the driver administrator is configured to configure the network resource driver in accordance with the resource record associated with the network resource. Th e data transmitter is in communication with the driver output for transmitting the translated data to the network resource.

Claims (9)

1. A network resource communication system for facilitating communication over a network between a network terminal and a network resource, the network resource communication system comprising:
a network resource driver for facilitating communication of application data with the network resource, the resource driver including a driver input for receiving the application data from a software application resident an the network terminal, and a driver output for providing a translation of the received application data;
a driver administrator in communication with the software application and being configured for communication with a resource registry and for receiving from the software application an indication of the network resource, the resource registry including resource data associated with the network resource, the driver administrator being further configured to provide the resource registry with the network resource indication and to receive from the resource registry the associated resource data; and a data transmitter in communication with the driver output and the driver administrator and being configured to transmit the translated application data over the network to the network resource in accordance with the received resource data.
2. The network resource communication system according to claim 1, wherein the resource data identifies a network address associated with the network resource.
3. The network resource communication system according to claim 1, wherein the data transmitter is configured for encrypting the translated data prior to transmission to the network resource.
4, The network resource communication system according to claim 1, wherein the resource data identifies a password associated with the network resource for accessing the network resource.
5. The network resource communication system according to claim 4, wherein the data transmitter is configured to encrypt the password together with the translated data, and to transmit the encrypted data to the network resource.
6. A method for facilitating communication over a network between a network terminal and a network resource, the method comprising the steps of:
receiving at a driver layer resident an the network terminal a request for communication with the network resource, the communication request including an indication of the network resource;
transmitting the network resource indication from the driver layer to a resource registry, and receiving therefrom resource data associated with the network resource; and directing application data received at the driver layer to the network resource in accordance with the received resource data.
7. The method according to claim 6, wherein the resource data comprises a network address associated with the network resource, and the directing step comprises transmitting the application data to the network address.
8. The method according to claim 6, wherein the resource data comprises a password associated with the network resource for accessing the network resource, and the directing step comprises transmitting the password to the network resource together with the password.
9. The method according to claim 8, wherein the directing step comprises the steps of encrypting the password together with the application data, and transmitting the encrypted data to the network resource.
