Abstract
A method of providing for cross-device operations between user devices includes maintaining, using an intermediate device connected to the user devices, state information on different elements in different sub-views displayed respectively on first and second ones of the user devices. The first and second user devices are different from each other. The method further includes performing: migrating and synchronizing the state of one of the elements which is moved from the sub-view of the first user device to the sub-view of the second user device; and/or generating a shadow element on the sub-view of the second user device and linking the shadow element to one of the elements on the first user device which is duplicated from the sub-view of the first user device on the sub-view of the second user device, and updating the states of the linked elements.
