Remote device support in thin client network
Barun Kumar Parichha, Timothy A. Gonsalves · 2010
Remote device sharing to thin-client has now become a challenging and interesting field of study in computing technology. At present, thin clients run on protocols such as X-11, RDP, VNC which have only limited support for devices other than keyboard and mouse. The present literature does not reveal sufficient information to support such peripheral devices to thin clients. In this paper, we proposed an unique device support mechanism called "Universal extension of USB bus over IP network" for thin-clients. It allows the users to access the USB devices under constrained network bandwidth without adding any device specific driver to thin client.
