Abstract

A computing system is provided, including a first display device having a first hardware configuration including a first display and a second display device having a second hardware configuration different from the first hardware configuration and including a second display. The computing system may further include a processor configured to receive an input including instructions to launch an application program on the first display device. The application program may include application program hardware specifications indicating hardware used by the application program. Based on the first hardware configuration, the second hardware configuration, and the application program hardware specifications, the processor may be further configured to determine that the second hardware configuration matches the application program hardware specifications more closely than the first hardware configuration. The processor may be further configured to launch the application program on the second display device.
