Abstract

The invention features a method of reducing perceived network latency in processing a query from a handheld client device processed by a remote system. The client device receives incremental input including a sequence of incremental user actions for identifying content items on the remote system. The client device transmits a first subsequence of the input to the remote system for incrementally identifying descriptive terms associated with desired content items. The remote system selects a first set of content items based on the first subsequence and transmits them in a reply to the client device. The client device selects a second set of content items from the first set based on a second subsequence of the input. The second subsequence includes incremental input received by the client device while it was waiting for the first reply. The client device orders and presents the second set of content items to the user.
