Using a Touch-Sensitive Display of a Mobile Device with a Host Computer

摘要

A touch-sensitive display of a mobile device is used to control applications executing on a host computer. A communications link is established between the host computer and the mobile device. A graphical user interface (GUI) from the host computer is delegated to the touch-sensitive display of the mobile device via the communications link. The mobile device is adapted to show the delegated GUI on the touch-sensitive display of the mobile device, wherein a user can interact with the displayed GUI. The host computer receives data describing the user interactions with the delegated GUI shown on the touch-sensitive display of the mobile device via the communications link. The host computer executes an instruction on the host computer based in part on the received data describing the user interaction.
