By enabling mobile devices, such as smart phones and tablets, to leverage native user interface components, the methods and systems described herein provide users a more seamless experience, wherein the user can potentially be oblivious to the fact that the application is not executing locally on the mobile device. In some embodiments, a user interface is provided which the user uses to trigger the display of a native user interface component. In some embodiments, the systems and methods described herein auto-adjust the pan and zoom settings on the mobile device to ensure that remote windows are presented in a manner that makes it easier for the user to interact with the device. The systems and methods described herein permit the user to switch to the new window in focus or a visual cue may be displayed to indicate that a window has been created somewhere on the remote desktop.

Integrating native user interface components on a mobile device

A method for making a hypermedium page interactive, the hypermedium page displayed by a network browser, includes the step of selecting a hyperlink on the hypermedium page displayed on a client machine, the hyperlink identifying a desired computing resource. A hyperlink configuration file is retrieved, the hyperlink configuration file corresponding to the hyperlink and identifying a server machine. A client agent is started on the client machine. The client agent creates, via a terminal services session, a communication link to a virtual machine executing on the server identified by the hyperlink configuration file, the virtual machine executed by a hypervisor executing in the terminal services session provided by an operating system executing on the server. The client agent receives data from the virtual machine and displays, on the client machine, the received data without intervention by the network browser.

Methods and systems for interacting, via a hypermedium page, with a virtual machine executing in a terminal services session

A method for providing access to a computing environment includes the step of receiving a request from a client system for an enumeration of available computing environments. Collected data regarding available computing environments are accessed. Accessed data are transmitted to a client system, the accessed data indicating to the client system each computing environment available to a user of the client system. A request is received from the client system to access one of the computing environments. A connection is established between the client system and a virtual machine hosting the requested computing environment via a terminal services session, the virtual machine executed by a hypervisor executing in the terminal services session provided by an operating system executing on one of a plurality of execution machines.
