Abstract

Traditional desktop virtualization assumed the communication between client and cloud server happened on high-speed network, but as popularization of multimedia application, a large amount of data result in network congestion. With the development of cloud computing, desktop as a service is emerged as a new service for desktop delivery. This paper presents a new architecture of DaaS supported by client and protocol co-designed method, which deploys hardware microprocessor to encode and decode the channel data in client, and decreases the transmission data over the network by compression algorithm and protocol optimization.
