Capture and broadcast process to coordinate orders produced by two remote customers associated with the same computer session

1. A capture and distribution method for coordinating commands produced by input/output devices of a first remote client and a second remote client associated with a same computer session running on a host computer, the capture and distribution method implementing the following operations from the host computer:

sending the same sequence of identifiable time marks to each remote client;

receiving and temporarily storing the commands coming from the first and second remote clients for a storage duration, each command being associated with a coordination datum linking an instant at which the command was produced to a time mark;

sequencing the commands received during the storage duration according to their associated coordination datum; and

successively supplying the sequenced commands to the computer session,

wherein each coordination datum comprises a measurement of a time between an instant at which one of the commands was produced and a time of reception of the associated time mark at one of the remote clients.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein each time mark is associated with session information sent simultaneously by the host computer to the first and second remote clients.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the session information comprises display, sound, and/or command information.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the display information is images of the computer session, with each time mark comprising an image number.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the storage duration is between 1 ms and 1 s.

6. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions thereon that, when executed by at least one processor of a host computer, cause the at least one processor to perform a capture and distribution method for coordinating commands produced by input/output devices of a first and a second remote client associated with a same computer session running on the host computer, the capture and distribution method implementing the following operations:

sending the same sequence of identifiable time marks to each remote client;

receiving and temporarily storing the commands coming from the first and second remote clients for a storage duration, each command being associated with a coordination datum linking an instant at which the command was produced to a time mark;

sequencing the commands received during the storage duration according to their associated coordination datum; and

successively supplying the sequenced commands to the computer session,

wherein each coordination datum comprises a measurement of a time between an instant at which one of the commands was produced and a time of reception of the associated time mark at one of the remote clients.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the storage duration is between 1 ms and 1 s.

8. An operating method for processing a command produced by an input/output device of a remote client associated with a computer session running on a host computer, the operating method implementing the following operations:

receiving a sequence of identifiable time marks supplied by the host computer;

creating a coordination datum linking an instant at which the command was produced to one of the time marks; and

providing the command associated with the coordination datum to the host computer,

wherein the coordination datum comprises a measurement of the time between the instant at which the command was produced and the reception of the associated time mark.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the coordination datum comprises an identifier of the time mark associated with the coordination datum.

10. A computer program containing instructions suitable for implementing the operations of the operating method according to claim 8 when the method is executed in the remote client.
