One or more universal serial bus (USB) devices are connected at a client computer. The USB devices are recognized by the client computer and a determination is made as to whether an application server computer provides functionality for one or more of the USB devices. A specific communication path is provided from the USB device to the server computer if functionality is provided by the application server computer.

USB devices in application server environments

A server computer hosts one or more application programs that are accessed by a client computer. Higher-level graphics commands describing graphics images are received from the application programs. The server computer determines whether the client computer is able to generate graphics using the higher-level graphics commands or generates graphics using relatively lower-level graphics commands. The server computer sends higher-level or relatively lower-level graphics commands depending on whether the client computer generates graphics using higher-level or relatively lower-level graphics commands.
