Abstract

Cross-environment rendering and user interaction support provide a seamless computing experience in a multi-operating system computing environment. The multi-operating system computing environment may include a mobile operating system and a desktop operating system running concurrently and independently on a mobile computing device. Full user interaction support is provided for redirected and/or mirrored applications that are rendered using an extended graphics context. An extended input queue handles input events from virtual input devices for remotely displayed applications. Remotely displayed applications are mapped to separate motion spaces within the input queue. The mobile computing device may be a smartphone running the Android mobile operating system and a full desktop Linux distribution on a modified Android kernel.
