  • Publication number: 20240419474
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for efficient and flexible way of allocating resources in remote computing environments. A “layered” hierarchy is described where a user can be provisioned with a virtual desktop from a virtual desktop pool in a first layer (“layer 1”), which can be configured for more common or basic usage. While working in the layer 1 desktop, when the user opens specific applications, such as applications that are resource-demanding or have other specific requirements, instead of launching those applications in the layer 1 desktop, the applications can be launched from a pool in a second layer (“layer 2”) and be redirected to the layer 1 desktop. The layer 2 pool can be configured to suit the requirements of the specific application, such as by having more memory, virtual GPUs, different operating systems, etc.

  • Patent number: 12141596
    Abstract: Remote desktop services are accessed by a remote desktop from a pool of remote desktops. When the remote desktop detects a user request to launch an application and determines that the application to be launched is from another remote desktop, the remote desktop establishes a connection with the other remote desktop to launch and display the application seamlessly. In addition, the remote desktop retrieves drive configuration data indicating drives or folders that are shared by each of the remote desktops in the pool and creates a mapping of the shared drives and folders based on the drive configuration data. In response to a user request to open a shared drive or folder of the second remote desktop, the remote desktop establishes a connection between the first remote desktop and the second remote desktop to acquire contents of the shared drive or folder.

  • Publication number: 20230205557
    Abstract: Techniques are described for redirecting GPU capability from a client device to the virtual desktop. The virtual desktop client includes a GPU controller deployed on the client computing device, which is capable of virtualizing the local GPU of the client device and exposing it to the virtual desktop. The virtual desktop agent operating on the host server includes a GPU consumer, which is capable of accepting machine learning (ML) or artificial intelligence (AI) workloads on the virtual desktop and offload these workloads to the GPU controller on the client computing device. When the GPU consumer detects the ML workload task on the virtual desktop, it transmits the ML workload task over the network to the GPU controller on the client computing device, which processes the ML workload task using the GPU of the client computing device and sends the results of the processing to the GPU consumer.

  • Patent number: 11580203
    Abstract: A system for authenticating a user attempting to access a computing device or a software application executing thereon. A data storage device stores one or more digital images or frames of video of face(s) of authorized user(s) of the device. The system subsequently receives from a first video camera one or more digital images or frames of video of a face of the user attempting to access the device and compares the image of the face of the user attempting to access the device with the stored image of the face of the authorized user of the device. To ensure the received video of the face of the user attempting to access the device is a real-time video of that user, and not a forgery, the system further receives a first photoplethysmogram (PPG) obtained from a first body part (e.g., a face) of the user attempting to access the device, receives a second PPG obtained from a second body part (e.g., a fingertip) of the user attempting to access the device, and compares the first PPG with the second PPG.
