Vnc Architecture Based Remote Desktop Access through Android Mobile Phones

In this paper, we will enlist the process to access the desktops of remote computer systems with the use of a android based cellular phone. This process will be carried out using Virtual Network Computing based architecture. A user will be able to access and manipulate the desktops of remote computers through a VNC viewer that will be provided on the user's cell-phone. Conditions that must be followed are that a VNC server must be installed on the person's computer which will be monitored and it must be connected to a Wi-Fi network. The user can access and manipulate the desktop within the Wi-Fi range irrespective of various platforms like windows, mac or linux. The image of the desktop is compressed before it is transmitted to the cellular phone. There are several functions provided so as to ease the viewing on cell-phones. There is shortcut function that can be used to quickly access the frequently used area. Current key assignments can be viewed using guidance function. A user can view two areas simultaneously using a twin view function. The prototype is already implemented using java and tested on a java based cellular phone.
