Remote desktop is a terminology used in computer science which usually refer to the software or sometimes an operating system. The remote desktop in Australia is sometimes added as a feature in most of the operating system which allows the user of one computer to gain the control of another user’s computer through his own computer. This feature is commonly very much used in server client applications where there are multiple clients and each client computer needs to have access to the server to get some files or some other kind of information. What the client machine does in this case is open a remote connection through a remote desktop app in his own machine and gains the access of the server machine through this. When the client is done with the server then client releases the connection and gets back to his own machine.  

This type of remote desktop application is widely popular in many business and through this type of application the customer care centers take control of the customer’s computer and solves their problem. This saves their time and the effort of personally going to the consumer and then checking the problem on his machine. This connection is usually established over the internet and is maintained unless and until both the computers are connected to the internet.  

The purpose of the remote desktop application is to capture the inputs either from the keyboard or the mouse from the client machine and sends these to the server machine where server applies these inputs and the response is sent back to the client machine. There are number of remote desktop applications software that are used for different kind of purposes such as the teamviewer software or the HP remote graphic software.  

Whenever a connection is established from some client machine, the resources of the server machine is shared to the client which means that the target machine is still able to perform all of its tasks simultaneously. The remote desktop application and feature is very much useful for the software companies where there is a great distance between the software manufacturers and the software consumers. Not only this but it is also very much useful when there is need to duplicate the desktop which does not have all the other resources such as mouse or keyboards. The remote desktop allows one single user with one desktop computer which has the resources of mouse keyboards to gain access of the desktop computers which do not have these resources attached to itself.
