Techniques disclosed herein provide access to a markup document form. A user interface virtualization (UIV) agent identifies name fields and input fields in rows of the markup document form. The UIV agent maps each of the name fields to a respective one of the input fields to identify name-input pairs. The UIV agent generates user interface (UI) metadata having row metadata specifying the rows of the markup document and name-input pair metadata specifying the name-input pairs. The UIV agent sends the UI metadata to a mobile client device configured to render a form having UI elements native to the mobile client device based on the UI metadata.

Transforming HTML forms into mobile native forms

Methods and systems configured to facilitate monitoring of multiple remote desktops in a user interface of a wireless device are provided. One example method includes maintaining image data representing a prior state of graphical displays of a plurality of graphical user interfaces associated with the remote desktops, in response to receiving a first request specifying first display information from the wireless device, preparing first update information for a first scaled image corresponding to content of a first graphical display, wherein the first scaled image contains image data defining a lower resolution version of a current state of a first graphical display out of the graphical displays, the scaled version is being sized according to the first display information received from the wireless device, and transmitting the prepared first update information to the wireless device to be displayed in the user interface.

Monitoring multiple remote desktops on a wireless device

Techniques disclosed herein transform HTML forms into forms with graphical user interfaces (UIs) native to mobile devices. A user interface virtualization (UIV) agent divides an HTML form into rows based on row breaks. The UIV agent then identifies name-input pairs in the HTML form by applying a trained na&#xef;ve Bayes classifier to determine name fields, and mapping the name fields to corresponding input fields. In addition, the UIV agent generates metadata which includes both information describing the rows in the form and the name-input information. Based on the metadata, a native form renderer running in the client device draws the form with native UI elements. In addition, the native form renderer forwards native UI events as HTML events.

A collaboration system and method via computer is provided. The collaboration system comprises a computing platform for storing an identifier, address and other information associated with at least one object; at least one service connector for communicating with a service using the identifier, address of the at least one object to interact with the service for the information associated with the object and transfer the information to the computing platform; and at least one tool for communicating with the computing platform to exchange the information associated with the object. According to the present invention, a tool may display the current information of a remote object. The tool does not necessarily have the capability to communicate with different remote services. Therefore, user might concentrate on the collaboration object and tools.
