Abstract: Systems and methods for managing user input for a remote application session between a client device and a remote server are provided. Input command data is received from a client device for an application executing within a remote session established between the client device and the remote server. The input command data specifies a plurality of points within a graphical user interface where the input command data was captured on the client device. Spline curves are calculated based on a first subset of sequential points from the plurality of points. Simulated input events are generated that specify intermediate points calculated along the spline curves. The simulated input events are injected into the remote server for the application.

Abstract: Virtual computer systems (virtual machines) have become increasingly common with the evolution of virtualization technology, cloud computing, etc. However, as a virtual machine and its associated guest operating system seek to execute and/or access a page of memory through synchronous processes execution of the virtual processor associated with the virtual processing is blocked until the page of memory is locked and available. Accordingly, time is wasted on calls waiting for physical page availability thereby reducing utilization of the host machine and virtual machine respectively. To address this an asynchronous virtual machine environment is established allowing the virtual machine or physical machine to handle additional operations whilst waiting for physical page availability.

The remote session client may be further configured to predict using calculated resize patterns how the window content image changes while the remote application's window is being resized.

Abstract: A permissions management system (PMS) defines the permissions associated with a user and thereby the activities the user can perform with any specific object and/or application or class of objects and/or applications. However, such a PMS requires an administrator to either authorise each permission individually or default permissions to a configuration previously established. The former is time consuming and the latter does not eliminate the former in establishing the roles initially or new roles or custom configurations. According, methods and systems for automating the establishment of permissions and their ongoing maintenance are presented based upon an initial discovery phase of actions performed by either the user or an administrator followed by an automated harmonization phase and a verification phase. This verification phase may employ human interactions or be automated exploiting an artificial intelligence engine.

Responsive to determining that the file type is associated with both a remote and local application, the first computing device configures a proxy component with parameters specifying the remote application and the local application. The proxy component is configured to determine whether to open a requested file of the file type with the remote application or the local application based upon the current client/server environment.
