Abstract

A system and method for communicating over a network are presented. Embodiments of the present invention are operable to capture a touch input directly from an electronic visual display coupled to a client device. The touch inputs are then transmitted from the client device to a host device over a network. The host device proceeds to render data in response to the touch input provided by the client device, which is then transmitted back to the client device over the network for display on the client device.

Claims

1. A method of remote network communication, comprising:

capturing a touch input directly from an electronic visual display coupled to a client device;

transmitting said touch input from said client device to a host device over a network;

rendering a display responsive to said touch input using said host device producing a rendered data; and

displaying said rendered data on said client device.

2. The method of remote network communication described in claim 1, wherein said transmitting further comprises:

packetizing said touch input using said client device.

3. The method of remote network communication described in claim 1, wherein said rendering further comprises:

packetizing said rendered data.

4. The method of remote network communication described in claim 1, wherein said displaying further comprises:

receiving said rendered data from said host device over said network.

5. The method of remote network communication described in claim 1, wherein said touch input is packetized using H.264 format.

6. The method of remote network communication described in claim 1, wherein said client device is operable to execute a respective application independent of any other client device from a plurality of client devices.

7. The method of remote network communication described in claim 1, wherein said host device is a virtual machine, wherein said virtual machine is operable to execute a respective application independent of any other virtual machine from a plurality of virtual machines.

8. A system for remote network communication, comprising:

a client device coupled to an electronic visual display wherein said electronic visual display is operable to capture touch input, wherein said client device is operable to transmit said touch input over a network, wherein further said client device is operable to display a rendered data; and

a host device operable to render a display responsive to said touch input to produce said rendered data, wherein said host device is operable to transmit said touch input over said network.

9. The system for remote network communication described in claim 8, wherein said client device is further operable to packetize said touch input.

10. The system for remote network communication described in claim 8, wherein said host device is further operable to packetize said rendered data.

11. The system for remote network communication described in claim 8, wherein said client device is further operable to receive said rendered data from said host device over said network.

12. The system for remote network communication described in claim 8, wherein said touch input is packetized using H.264 format.

13. The system for remote network communication described in claim 8, wherein said client device is operable to execute a respective application independent of any other client device from a plurality of client devices.

14. The system for remote network communication described in claim 8, wherein said host device is a virtual machine, wherein said virtual machine is operable to execute a respective application independent of any other virtual machine from a plurality of virtual machines.

15. A non-transitory computer readable medium for remote network communication, comprising:

capturing a touch input directly from an electronic visual display coupled to a client device;

transmitting said touch input from said client device to a host device over a network;

receiving a rendered display responsive to said touch input from said host device producing a rendered data; and

displaying said rendered data on said client device.

16. The computer readable medium described in claim 15, wherein said transmitting further comprises:

packetizing said touch input using said client device.

17. The computer readable medium described in claim 15, wherein said receiving a rendered display further comprises:

unpacketizing said rendered data.

18. The computer readable medium described in claim 15, wherein said displaying further comprises:

rendering said rendered data from said host device.

19. The computer readable medium described in claim 15, wherein said touch input is packetized using H.264 format.

20. The computer readable medium described in claim 15, wherein said client device is operable to execute a respective application independent of any other client device from a plurality of client devices.

21. The computer readable medium described in claim 15, wherein said host device is a virtual machine, wherein said virtual machine is operable to execute a respective application independent of any other virtual machine from a plurality of virtual machines.
