Bayeux is a protocol for transporting asynchronous messages (primarily over HTTP), with low latency between a web server and web clients.

Comet is a web application model in which a long-held HTTP request allows a web server to push data to a browser, without the browser explicitly requesting it.

Looks like this will be obsoleted by the HTML5 WebSockets.
