Abstract
Mechanisms for a presentation module to perform distributed interfacing with an application across a plurality of hardware entities. The module identifies the hardware entities that are available to interface with endpoints of an application. The presentation module performs distribution of assignment of hardware entities to interact with the endpoints by, for each of at least some of the hardware entities, determining a subset of endpoints with which the corresponding hardware entities is to interface. Furthermore, the application is operated in that state to thereby detect interaction of at least some of the hardware entities with the application via at least some of the endpoints. Thus, distributed interfacing of hardware entities with an application is facilitated.
