REMOTE PROTOCOL SUPPORT FOR COMMUNICATION OF LARGE OBJECTS IN ARBITRARY FORMAT

摘要

A server computer (102) provides objects (122) such as bitmaps representing graphics image for processing by a client computer or device. The object may be of any arbitrary size or format, and is converted to a data structure (122) that can be received by the client computer. Synchronized metadata may be included in the data structure, where such metadata data is used by an application in the client computer or device (104).
