Virtual desktops generated by a virtual desktop application locally executing on a tablet computing device, can further display remote applications. The tablet computing device executes an operating system that does not contemplate a mouse pointer and that displays a native desktop. In many instances, the virtual desktop is displayed on the tablet computing device such that the virtual desktop appears to be the native desktop. The virtual desktops therefore include a mouse pointer which can be used to interact with the remote applications. The remote applications generate graphical application output when they execute on a remote server. The graphical application output is transmitted to the tablet computing device and displayed in an application output window displayed within the virtual desktop. Using a virtual trackpad or other virtual input device, a user can interact with the remote applications via the application output displayed on the virtual desktop.

Interacting with remote applications displayed within a virtual desktop of a tablet computing device

In general overview, the present disclosure is directed to a system and method for selectively displaying a frame of an application user interface on a mobile computing device. A user interface analyzer on a mobile computing device analyzes a user interface for an application executing on a remote server. The user interface analyzer identifies frames in the user interface, the positions of the frames, relationships between frames, and horizontal and vertical panning offsets to move between adjacent frames. The mobile computing device receives a user input requesting the display of an adjacent frame. Based on the information the user interface analyzer obtained, the mobile computing device displays an adjacent frame of the user interface.

One embodiment is directed to a method of providing access to cloud storage performed by a mobile computing device. The method includes (a) receiving a file-level access command to perform a file-level operation on a file of filesystem storage of the mobile computing device, the filesystem storage including remote storage provided by a remote storage platform and locally-cached storage provided by local storage, (b) evaluating whether the file-level access command is directed to a pre-determined portion of the filesystem provided by the remote storage platform, (c) in response to evaluating, if the file-level access command is directed to the pre-determined portion, then performing a synchronization operation to ensure that the file is stored on local storage in synchronization with the remote storage platform, and (d) fulfilling the file-level access command by accessing the local storage once the file is stored on local storage in synchronization with the remote storage platform.

Redirecting local storage to cloud storage

A method for maintaining a full-screen, integrated desktop environment on a remote machine for display to a user by a local machine includes monitoring, by a first agent on the remote machine, a desktop environment providing integrated access to a resource provided to a user of the local machine by the remote machine and a resource provided by the local machine to the user. The first agent generates a proxy window representing a window on the local machine displaying output data generated by the second resource and receives an identification of a change to the window on the local machine. The first agent modifies at least one data object in the desktop environment responsive to the change. The first agent transmits, to a second agent on the local machine, an identification of the modification. The second agent modifies attribute data associated with a data object displayed by the local machine.
