Abstract: The current document is directed to efficient, distributed-search methods and subsystems within distributed computer systems, including computer systems distributed over multiple sets of geographically distributed data centers, each comprising multiple discrete computer systems, such as multi-processor servers. In one implementation, the distributed-search methods and subsystems are implemented locally within participating entities as well as within one or more distributed-search engines. Each search is directed, by a participant, to identify attribute-associated entities within, provided by, connected to, or otherwise accessible to a distributed computing system having attribute values specified or indicated by the search query. Certain attribute values are continuously collected and centrally stored by the one or more centralized distributed-search engines while other attribute values are obtained through information requests distributed among participating entities.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure allocate shares of processing resources or other physical resources among virtual machines (VMs) operating as, for example, virtual desktops on a plurality of host computing devices. Allocations of resources are adjusted based on the user activity, VM activity, and/or application activity detected by an agent executing on each VM. Allocated shares may be boosted, unboosted, or normalized, depending on the type and duration of detected activity, by a resource allocation manager executing on a management server.

Abstract: Examples quickly suspend and resume virtual desktops on demand or on schedule. Virtual desktops, or desktops as a service, are provided to users, where the virtual desktop is a forked VM, cloned VM, or otherwise at least a partial duplicate of an existing VM. The virtual desktop points to existing memory maintained by the existing VM, and the virtual desktop only writes to memory the pages that the virtual desktop creates or modifies.

Abstract: The current document is directed a resource-exchange system that facilitates resource exchange and sharing among computing facilities. The currently disclosed methods and systems employ efficient, distributed-search methods and subsystems within distributed computer systems that include large numbers of geographically distributed data centers to locate resource-provider computing facilities that match the resource needs of resource-consumer computing-facilities based on attribute values associated with the needed resources, the resource providers, and the resource consumers. Nested-hypervisor technology is employed, in disclosed implementations, to guarantee data security for, and prevent monitoring of operational states and characteristics of, resource-consumer virtual machines and virtual applications while they execute above leased computational resources in remote computing facilities. Nested-hypervisor technology is additionally employed to facilitate installation of resource-exchange system management components in participant computing facilities as well as to guarantee data and operational security for the management components.

The currently disclosed methods and systems employ efficient, distributed-search methods and subsystems within distributed computer systems that include large numbers of geographically distributed data centers to locate resource-provider computing facilities that match the resource needs of resource-consumer computing-facilities based on attribute values associated with the needed resources, the resource providers, and the resource consumers. The resource-exchange system monitors and controls resource exchanges on behalf of participants in the resource-exchange system in order to optimize resource usage within participant data centers and computing facilities. Virtual machines that provide the execution environment for multi-tiered applications described by hierarchically organized multi-tiered-application specifications are automatically distributed across one or more resource-provider-computing-facility hosts by the resource-exchange system.

Abstract: User interface virtualization describes a technique for providing a user with access to one computing device from another computing device, while translating the ergonomics of one computer's user interface style into the ergonomics of the other's. An agent running on a remote desktop may use an interface interaction API or software framework to programmatically open and manipulate a context menu on the remote desktop, and act as a proxy for a corresponding client running on a client device that accepts a “touch and swipe” style input. The client constructs and displays a native graphical user interface element at the client device that is a virtual representation of the context menu at the remote desktop.

Abstract: Files are mirrored between a desktop device and a mobile device in a seamless manner so that a user may work on the mirrored files on either device without having to save or send files beforehand. The user may interact with a mirrored file on a desktop, physically leave the desktop, and take a mobile device that has the mirrored file with him or her and continue interacting with the file.

Abstract: Documents or other files opened on a remote desktop are mirrored onto a mobile client device that allows a user to seamlessly work on such documents or files in either a stationary or mobile fashion. The mirrored files may be presented to the user on the mobile client device with the capacity for the user to sign his or her name—or otherwise mark—the mirrored document on the client device. Once signed, various techniques are executed that cause the signed version of the mirrored files to be communicated back to the remote desktop where the signed files are saved. Such techniques may operate transparent to a user, eliminating the need for the user to constantly have to save and transport signed files between multiple devices when working on the go.

Abstract translation: 在远程桌面上打开的文档或其他文件被镜像到移动客户端设备上，允许用户以固定或移动的方式无缝地处理这些文档或文件。 镜像文件可以在移动客户端设备上呈现给用户，用户可以将其姓名或其他方式标记在客户端设备上的镜像文档。 一旦签名，执行各种技术，导致镜像文件的签名版本被传送回保存已签名文件的远程桌面。 这样的技术可以对用户操作透明，消除了用户在旅途中经常需要在多个设备之间保存和传输签名的文件的需要。
