Abstract:
1. A method of processing graphics data for transmission to a remote computing device, the method comprising: receiving graphics data representative of a client screen to be transmitted to the remote computing device; determining anchor points in the graphics data, wherein the anchor points are indicative of intersections of edges in the client screen; based on the anchor points, determining a grid for subdividing the client screen, wherein the grid is aligned to user interface elements and borders between image and text areas of said client screen; subdividing the graphics data into data tiles in accordance with the grid so that the tiles correspond to subdivided portions of the client screen and each tile contains primarily image data or text data but not both; and processing said data tiles for transmission to the remote computing device by processing the data tiles into tile components and encoding the tile components to produce encoded data outputs, said processing based on whether the data tiles contain primarily image data or text data.
