A remote network resource is contacted to acquire connection data. The connection data is associated with connecting a viewer to one or more senders. In response to the connection data, one or more connections are established between the viewer and the one or more senders. Graphical data is received over the connections from the one or more senders and presented to the viewer.

A system architecture for managing a group of heterogeneous workstations that may be widely dispersed geographically. A system according to the present teachings enables users to access remote workstations and run applications on the remote workstations transparently and enables seamless integration of remote desktop sharing and distributing desktops among heterogeneous workstations. The system also provides enforcement of protections among user and workstations, user account management and workstation allocation management. The present architecture is platform independent and enables workstations to be accessed from anywhere using a graphical user interface through the Internet.

According to one embodiment, a method comprises detecting a graphics call directed from an application executing on a host computer to an operating system's graphics interface, wherein the operating system's graphics interface does not trigger synchronization of a guest computer's display. The method further comprises, responsive to such detecting, triggering synchronization of a display of at least one guest computer that is communicatively coupled to the host computer to reflect the graphics call. According to one embodiment, a method comprises determining a three-dimensional (3D) graphics operation is communicated along a 3D graphics communication path of a host computer, and using a communication path for two-dimensional (2D) graphics operations on the host computer to trigger notification to a guest computer of a display change resulting from the 3D graphics operation.

A process for creating new software procedures during run time. An applications program calls a procedure that indirectly corresponds to a set of variables. A library determines that the procedure is not already defined in the library. In a first embodiment, the library builds a source code file to be compiled. In a second embodiment, the library object code creates a string of directives that form part of a command line calling a compiler. The compiler compiles a source code file, selectively compiling only portions of the source code file designated by the command line directives that were created by the library code. For either embodiment, the resulting newly compiled procedure is provided to the applications program by the library in a manner that is transparent to the applications program. No changes are required to the applications program or to the compiler. The library code may add the procedure to the library if there is space, or replace the least recently used or least frequently used procedure if the library is at a capacity limit. As a result, the library can adapt to the set of features being used by the applications program, or the sets of features being used by multiple application programs if the library is shared, or adapt to changes in procedures being used over time.

A method manages, at a client device, a plurality of remote computing sessions. The method comprises executing a session manager application on the client device. The session manager application comprises a user interface in which configuration information about the plurality of remote computing sessions is displayed. Each of the plurality of remote computing sessions is executed on at least one of a set of remote computers. The method further comprises receiving, via the user interface of the session manager application, an event associated with an operation and performing the operation on at least one of the plurality of remote computing sessions in response to receiving the event.

A method according to the invention conserves host system resources by compressing an image region according to the type of graphics command used to generate or modify the region. As an image is being rendered, a list of modified image regions is maintained. For each modified image region, metadata are associated with the region to identify the type of graphics command that was used to produce the modification. Per-region choices of compression algorithms can then be made responsive to the metadata without regard to the content of the image data itself.
