CLOUD COMPUTING SYSTEM AND METHOD

摘要

A system and method deploying cloud computing software applications and resources to mobile devices is disclosed. The system/method virtualizes the graphical user experience (GEX) and user input experience (UEX) that comprise the graphical user interface (GUI) for host application software (HAS) running on a host computer system (HCS). The virtualized GUI (VUI) GEX component is converted to a remote video stream (RVS) and communicated to a remote mobile computing device (MCD) over a computer communication network (CCN). A MCD thin client application (TCA) receives the RVS and presents this GEX content on the MCD display using a graphics experience mapper (GEM). A TCA user experience mapper (UEM) translates MCD user inputs to a form suitable for UEX protocols and communicates this user input over the CCN to the HCS for translation by the UEX into HCS operating system protocols compatible with the HAS.

主权项

1. A cloud computing system comprising:
(a) host computer system (HCS); (b) mobile computing device (MCD); and (c) computer communication network (CCN); wherein said HCS is configured to execute host operating system software (HOS) machine instructions read from a computer readable medium; said HOS further comprises virtualized graphical user interface (VUI) device driver machine instructions read from a computer readable medium; said VUI is configured to virtualize the graphical user experience (GEX) and user input experience (UEX) associated with host application software (HAS) executed on said HCS; said VUI is configured to translate said GEX into a remote video stream (RVS); said HCS is configured to transmit said RVS to said MCD over said CCN; said MCD further comprises a thin client application (TCA) further comprising machine instructions implementing a graphics experience mapper (GEM) and user experience mapper (UEM); said GEM is configured to receive said RVS and present said RVS to a display on said MCD; said UEM is configured to accept user input data (UID) entered on said MCD and translate said UID to an equivalent UEX protocol; and said TCA is configured to transmit said equivalent UEX protocol to said VUI for presentation to said HAS through said HCS.
