Claim:
A method for selectively displaying a frame of an application user interface on a mobile computing device, the method comprising: receiving, by a client agent of a mobile computing device, an application user interface from an application executing remotely on a server; storing, by the client agent, the application user interface to an extended virtual screen buffer maintained by the mobile computing device, the application user interface comprising a plurality of distinct frames, each frame grouping one or more features of the application user interface; displaying, by the client agent, on a native display of the mobile computing device a first frame of the application user interface stored in the extended virtual screen buffer; interpreting, by the client agent, user input from a user as a request to view an adjacent frame of the application user interface, the adjacent frame adjacent to the first frame; retrieving, by the client agent responsive to the request, the adjacent frame and the position of the adjacent frame of the application user interface from the extended virtual screen buffer; and displaying, by the client agent, the retrieved adjacent frame of the application user interface from the extended virtual screen buffer on the native display of the mobile computing device.
