Publication number: 20250028550Abstract: Systems and methods are described for hiding a primary user's sensitive information in collaborative virtual desktop sessions where multiple secondary users access the primary user's virtual desktop. In particular, embodiments described herein leverage a mechanism for monitoring when designated sensitive applications are opened in the virtual desktop. After the primary user sets up a collaborative session on their virtual desktop, if a sensitive application opens in the virtual desktop during the collaborative session, the sharing of the desktop graphical user interface (GUI) can be stopped and the user can be prompted (e.g., via a warning dialog that pops up) to choose how to proceed. For example, the user can choose to hide the entire desktop, to minimize or close the sensitive application, or to continue sharing the desktop but pop-out the sensitive application from the remote desktop in a separate window that is not shared with the collaborators.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 12, 2023Publication date: January 23, 2025Inventors: Yunxia Cheng, Lin Lv, Guoxin Liu, Peiwei Huang, Qian Liu, Jian Song

Patent number: 11934803Abstract: Disclosed are various approaches for workflow service application searching. In some aspects, a search query is entered through a search element of a workflow application on a client device. A request is transmitted from a workflow application to a workflow service, to search within an application based on the search query. Application content corresponding to the search query and the application is received from the workflow service. A search result is provided based on the application content and without opening the application on the client device.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2021Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: VMware, Inc.Inventors: Lin Lv, Chaoting Xuan, Xinda Yan, Qimin Yao, Yunxia Cheng, Qian Liu

Patent number: 11722550Abstract: An input device is shared between a first remote desktop having a first display image, which is displayed on a first display of a first client device, and a second remote desktop having a second display image, which is displayed on a second display of a second client device. Upon detecting that an input pointer of the input device currently displayed within the first display image on the first display, is moved across an edge of the first remote desktop that corresponds to a virtual boundary between the first remote desktop and the second remote desktop, instructions are issued to a first remote computing device that is hosting the first remote desktop to discontinue receiving inputs made with the input device and a second remote computing device that is hosting the second remote desktop to begin receiving inputs made with the input device.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 2019Date of Patent: August 8, 2023Assignee: VMware, Inc.Inventors: Lin Lv, Yunfei San, Yunxia Cheng, Jack Liu, Ning Ke, Yang Liu, Jian Ken Song

Patent number: 11593155Abstract: Disclosed are various approaches for workflow service application networking. In some aspects, a workflow creation user interface is provided to create a networking workflow with at least one networking action. A networking action is specified for a first application to utilize application content from a second application. The networking action is verified based on a response to a test action request transmitted to the workflow service.

Publication number: 20220269516Abstract: The disclosure provides for transitioning application windows between local and remote desktops. Example implementations include opening a first file with a first application to generate a first application window on a first desktop window on a user display; based at least on a trigger event for transitioning the first application window from the first desktop window to a second desktop window, determining whether a second application is available for the second desktop window to produce a version of the first application window; and based at least on the second application being available: transferring the first file across a network to become a second file; and opening the second file with the second application to generate a second application window on the second desktop window, the second application window replacing the first application window on the user display. The transition may go either direction.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 10, 2022Publication date: August 25, 2022Inventors: Lin LV, Bo Steven LIU, Yunxia CHENG, Yunfei SAN, Jian Ken SONG, Felix YAN, Yuping WEI, Qian Jack LIU

Patent number: 11108868Abstract: A system is provided for switching a VDI collaborative session where multiple clients are collaboratively accessing a first virtual desktop to a second virtual desktop belonging to one of the collaborators. The owner of the second virtual desktop requests the system to switch the collaboration session to the second virtual desktop. The connection server disconnects the requesting user from the first virtual desktop, connects the user to the second virtual desktop, and invites the other collaborators to join the session on the second virtual desktop. After accepting the invitation, the collaborators are joined to the second virtual desktop and collaboration resumes on the second virtual desktop.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 2019Date of Patent: August 31, 2021Assignee: VMware, Inc.Inventors: Yunfei San, Yunxia Cheng, Haiou Jiang, Jian Song, Dong Wang
