Real-time, interactive measurement techniques for desktop virtualization

摘要

In one embodiment, a server system receives, from a client device configured to remotely access a desktop hosted by the server system, user input directed to the desktop. The server system further identifies a desktop operation to be performed in response to the user input, where the identifying is performed without relying on preconfigured information that indicates what the desktop operation should be, determines when the desktop operation has completed, and adds, upon completion of the desktop operation, one or more markers to the desktop. The server system then transmits an image of the desktop that includes the one or more markers to the client device, thereby signaling the completion of the desktop operation to the client device.

1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a server system from a client device configured to remotely access a desktop hosted by the server system, user input directed to the desktop; identifying, by the server system, a desktop operation to be performed in response to the user input; adding, by the server system, an initial marker to the desktop, the initial marker encoding coordinates of one or more markers that will be added to the desktop in the future upon completion of the desktop operation; transmitting, by the server system to the client device, a first image of the desktop that includes the initial marker; determining, by the server system, when the desktop operation has completed; upon completion of the desktop operation, adding, by the server system, the one or more markers to the desktop at the coordinates encoded in the initial marker; and transmitting, by the server system to the client device, a second image of the desktop that includes the one or more markers, thereby signaling the completion of the desktop operation to the client device.
