PROTOCOLS AND METHODS FOR TRANSMITTING A DATA FLOW TRANSITING BETWEEN A HOST COMPUTER AND A REMOTE CLIENT

摘要

Protocols for transmitting a data flow transiting between a host computer and a remote client use the bandwidth of a computer network. The data includes at least display and sound data generated by a user session running on the host computer, and control data generated by at least one remote system I/O device. The transmission protocol includes a plurality of data flow reliability treatments to address transmission failures, the reliability treatments applying to the display, sound and control data respectively being different from each other.
