[0019] A smart card web server generally refers to a web server running on a smart card coupled to a device. A smart card web server can be used to provide content defined by the network operator who can own the smart card to an end user using the device's web browser and standard web technologies such as interfaces. A smart card web server may be configured to use a BIP (Bearer Independent Protocol) protocol such as that described in ETSI 102223, while a browser may use a packet based protocol stack such as a TCP / IP stack. A module, which may be referred to as a BIP gateway, may be provided to convert the BIP protocol to TCP / IP (and vice versa), allowing data communication between the smart card and the client.
[0020] Resources on smart cards may be scarce. Some cards can be configured to open a single BIP channel. On the other hand, TCP sockets are usually available, and commercial browsers open many sockets at the same time to download resources (eg, web pages, images, ...
