Remote Desktop Protocol

Abstract: An apparatus includes a monocular display with a wireless communications interface, a user input device, a transmitter, and a controller. The monocular display is positioned relative to the user's eye to display images to the user while occluding less than half of the user's maximum viewing space. The apparatus can incorporate a wireless communication controller that not only provides a video link to a host device, but also provides for control and management of a host device and other more devices. In this context, a host device may be any appropriate device that sources audio, video, text, office functionality and other information, such as a cell phone, personal computer, laptop, media player, and/or the like. The apparatus and the host may support Microsoft Windows SideShow, Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), and Virtual Network Computing (VNC).

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a remote desktop communication protocol that includes spatial and temporal compression techniques Multimedia presentation data is generated at a server from a source A compression facility modifies the presentation data by both spatially and temporally compressing the presentation data to transmittable data In some embodiments, a check is performed to ensure that the least amount of data is selected prior to sending the transmittable data to a remote client The remote client receives the transmittable data and re-constructs the original multimedia presentation data In some embodiments that use lossy compression, the reconstruction may not exactly re-construct the original multimedia presentation data Once re-created, the remote client presents the presentation data at the remote client The presentation data could be audio, video, or other data or a combination of them

Abstract: An integration system is disclosed that provides a virtual desktop integration with terminal services. A client computer is connected to one the virtual desktops operating in a server. The client computer examines information contained in a remote desktop protocol (RDP) compliant packet supplied by the server. The client computer connects to one of the many virtual desktops based on information. Use of the information enables integration of the virtual desktop with the existing terminal session deployment model. Client devices can establish a session using a single network name and can be appropriately directed to either a virtual desktop or terminal session.

Abstract: A method for offloading remote terminal services processing tasks to a peripheral device that would otherwise be performed in a computer system's processor and memory. In one embodiment, the disclosed method is utilized in a layered network model, wherein computing tasks that are typically performed in network applications are instead offloaded to a peripheral such as a network interface card (NIC).
