METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING REMOTE ACCESS TO A STATE OF AN APPLICATION PROGRAM

摘要

A method and system for providing remote access to a state of an application executing on a remote server. A client computer includes a client remote access program that is used to connect to a server remote access program. At the client computer, a client difference program having encoded data indicative of a change of a state of the application last received from the server computer is generated and transmitted to the server remote access program. At the server computer, the client difference program is executed to update the state of the application and a server difference program is generated having encoded a difference between the updated state of the application and the state of the application last sent to the client computer. The server difference program is transmitted to the client computer to update the state of the application since it was last received from the server computer.
