Patent number: 9185171Abstract: Examples of systems and methods are provided for designing a remote view of a local application. A system may receive a request from a remote client device to launch a local application at a local server. The system may select a configuration file associated with the local application and with the remote client device. The configuration file may comprise a control code for at least one user action to control the local application. The system may provide the configuration file directed to the remote client. The system may receive from the remote client device, a control code from a configuration file previously provided to the remote client device. The system may control the local application based on the received control code. The system may provide display output data of the local application directed to the remote client device.Type: GrantFiled: August 24, 2009Date of Patent: November 10, 2015Assignee: WYSE TECHNOLOGY L.L.C.Inventors: Babak Pahlavan, Nandakumar Sarun Madarakal, Ronald H Nicholson, Jr., Daniel Ernesto Barreto

Patent number: 8676926Abstract: Examples of systems and methods are provided for handling remote drawing commands. A system may comprise a buffer module configured to receive, at the system from a remote server system over a remote access connection between the system and the remote server system during a remote connection session, remote drawing commands, according to a drawing command rate, of a remote application running on the remote server system. The buffer module may be configured to store the remote drawing commands. The system may comprise a timer module configured to facilitate sending at least some of the remote drawing commands in the buffer module to a graphics module according to a refresh rate that is less than the drawing command rate. The timer module may be application agnostic.Type: GrantFiled: August 24, 2009Date of Patent: March 18, 2014Assignee: Wyse Technology L.L.C.Inventors: Babak Pahlavan, Ronald H Nicholson, Jr., Daniel Ernesto Barreto

Publication number: 20100268762Abstract: Examples of systems and methods are provided for communication, scrolling a remote application, and scrolling a local application based on one or more commands from a remote client device. A system may comprise a viewer controller module configured to receive, at the system from a remote server over a remote access connection between the system and the remote server during a remote connection session, an overall content size of a remote application running on the remote server. The viewer controller module may be configured to generate a scrolling command to control a first remote application view at the system of the remote application. The scrolling command may be based on one or more native scrolling gestures, a first display output at the system of the remote application and the overall content size of the remote application.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 24, 2009Publication date: October 21, 2010Applicant: WYSE TECHNOLOGY INC.Inventors: Babak PAHLAVAN, Ronald H.

Publication number: 20040010652Abstract: An SOC architecture that provides a latency tolerant protocol for internal bus signals is disclosed. The SOC includes at least a processor core and one or more peripherals that communicate on a first internal bus that carries signals having a latency tolerant signal protocol that enables an arbitrary number of pipeline stages between any signal initiator and any signal target. A shared memory subsystem, DMA-type peripherals, and a second internal bus with a topology overlapping the first bus, may also be included. All signals over both busses are point-to-point and registered and all transactions on both busses are handshaked. An arbitrary number of flip-flops, multiplexing routers, and/or decoding routers may be included between any signal initiator and any signal target on either bus, and may be added at any time during the design and layout of the SOC.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 24, 2003Publication date: January 15, 2004Applicant: Palmchip CorporationInventors: Lyle E.

Patent number: 5594473Abstract: A computer that provides data to a video display using a bitmap display memory organization and bitplane addressing. Separate control is provided for two bitplane backgrounds and for eight reusable and easily movable sprites. Additional logic allows for dynamically-controllable interobject priority and collision detection among data in each of the bitplane backgrounds and sprites. A coprocessor provides for video beam-synchronized changes to data in registers, freeing the main processor for general purpose computing tasks. A block image transferer is provided to rapidly copy data in large blocks from one memory location to another. In hold-and-modify mode, color output circuitry holds the values for a previously displayed pixel while bitplane data modifies those values, allowing for simultaneous display of a greatly increased number of colors.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 1993Date of Patent: January 14, 1997Assignee: Escom AGInventors: Jay G. Miner, Dave Dean, Joseph C. Decuir, Ronald H. Nicholson, Akio Tanaka

Patent number: 4777621Abstract: A video game home computer is implemented in NMOS (n type metal oxide semiconductor) technology with plural microprocessors. Centralized bus architecture and direct memory access (DMA) techniques are employed. A video display generator provides color signal outputs to drive a commercial television receiver display. This display generator receives inputs from both microprocessors and obtains data directly from memory. A bit map of display information is kept in memory, wherein bits of information in memory image the precise screen display for each instance in time. A bit map manipulator circuit performs, under microprocessor direction, logic function manipulation of the bit map data. Access between system components is accomplished via the bus architecture on a priority queue basis. Chip count and chip area is minimized.Type: GrantFiled: July 19, 1985Date of Patent: October 11, 1988Assignee: Commodore-Amiga, Inc.Inventors: Jay G. Miner, Joseph C. Decuir, Ronald H. Nicholson
