Optimization and improvement of bidirectional connections with Web Socket on Synapse framework using Web Workers technology

Abstract

Every year, the demand of Smart Tv increases constantly, same as Android Devices. These devices are used by a lot of population worldwide, but there is not focus on developing apps that uses both platforms. Therefore, is a great opportunity to take advantage of both technologies creating a framework that allows bidirectional connection and interaction between both devices using Web Sockets. This project compares the optimization of search and interconnection of Android devices and LG Smart TVs by reducing the waiting Using Web Workers will allow multi-threaded execution search in Web Socket servers on Android devices much faster. On the other hand, it allows to add multiplayer support to use more than one device at the same time. The result of our project is reduce by 60% the time with parallel search respect to the linear search, and allow the connection to the tv up to 4 players simultaneously. To validate the framework, a video game is developed to test the optimized functionalities in the Web Socket connection in the source code to show the improvements for all devices connected and compare without web workers implementation.
