CONTROLLING RESOURCES USED BY COMPUTING DEVICES

摘要

Various examples for controlling resources used by client devices are disclosed. A management application executing in at least one computing device can identify client devices executing an instance of a client application that are available for management, where the client application is configured to control at least one function of a respective one of the client devices. A mode of operation can be changed on the at least one computing device where at least one resource is shared with the client devices, such as on a display of the client devices. Through communication between the management application and the client application executing on individual ones of the client devices, access to the at least one function can be restricted while the at least one resource is shared with the plurality of client devices.

1. A method for restricting access to at least one function on client devices while at least one computing device is sharing a resource, comprising:
identifying, by a management application executing on the at least one computing device, a plurality of client devices executing an instance of a client application that are available for management, the client application being configured to control at least one function of a respective one of the plurality of client devices; changing, by the management application, a mode of operation on the at least one computing device where at least one resource is shared with the plurality of client devices; and causing, by the management application, the client application executing on individual ones of the plurality of client devices to restrict access to the at least one function while the at least one resource is shared with the plurality of client devices, wherein the plurality of client devices are configured through communication between the management application and the instance of the client application.
