Abstract

Systems and methods for presenting a merged view of remotely installed applications to which a user has terminal server (TS) based access are described. In one aspect, a client computing device generates one or more shortcuts to one or more respective applications. Each of the applications is installed at one or more installation points in an Intranet. The client computing device is external to the Intranet. The one or more shortcuts are aggregated to present a merged view of the applications. The merged view is transparent of whether the applications are managed by different information sources on the Intranet and/or configured for remote TS-based execution by different ones of one or more installation points.
