Abstract

A first electronic device is provided. The first electronic device includes a communication circuitry and at least one processor. The at least one processor is configured to control the communication circuitry to connect with a second electronic device, determine data to transmit to the second electronic device, control the communication circuitry to transmit the data to the second electronic device, and when a signal, indicating that an application is executed from the second electronic device, is received after the data is transmitted, stop transmission of the data.

Claims (34)

1. A first electronic device comprising:

a communication circuitry; and

at least one processor configured to:

control the communication circuitry to connect with a second electronic device,

determine data to be displayed at the second electronic device,

control the communication circuitry to transmit the data to the second electronic device, and

when a signal requesting stop of the transmitting of the data is received, stop transmission of the data,

wherein the data is displayed at the second electronic device, and

wherein the signal is transmitted from the second electronic device when at least part of a region at which the data is displayed is hidden by executing an application.

2. The first electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to control the communication circuitry to connect with the second electronic device using a wireless communication scheme or a wired communication scheme.

3. The first electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the wired communication scheme comprises one of a universal serial bus (USB), an high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI), an mobile high-definition link (MHL), and a display port, and

the wireless communication scheme comprises one of cellular communication and a short distance wireless communication scheme.

4. The first electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to control the communication circuitry to maintain the connection with the second electronic device or release the connection with the second electronic device when the transmission of the data is stopped.

5. The first electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the communication circuitry to stop the transmission of the data when an event occurs in the first electronic device.

6. The first electronic device of claim 5 , wherein the event comprises at least one of a touch input, a button input, an electronic pen input, call reception, message reception, and a notification.

7. The first electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the communication circuitry to resume the stopped transmission of the data based on state information of the first electronic device or the second electronic device after the transmission of the data is stopped.

8. The first electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to stop encoding of the data to transmit to the second electronic device when the transmission of the data is stopped.

9. A first electronic device comprising:

a communication circuitry; and

at least one processor configured to:

control the communication circuitry to connect with a second electronic device,

determine data to be displayed at the second electronic device,

control the communication circuitry to transmit the data to the second electronic device, and

when a signal, indicating that a user input is not received during a predetermined time, is received from the second electronic device after the data is transmitted, stop transmission of the data,

wherein the data is displayed at the second electronic device.

10. The first electronic device of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to control the communication circuitry to connect with the second electronic device using a wireless communication scheme or a wired communication scheme.

11. The first electronic device of claim 9 , wherein the wired communication scheme comprises one of a universal serial bus (USB), an high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI), an mobile high-definition link (MHL), and a display port, and

the wireless communication scheme comprises one of cellular communication and a short distance wireless communication scheme.

12. The first electronic device of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to control the communication circuitry to maintain the connection with the second electronic device when the transmission of the data is stopped.

13. The first electronic device of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to control the communication circuitry to release the connection with the second electronic device when the transmission of the data is stopped.

14. The first electronic device of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the communication circuitry to stop the transmission of the data when an event occurs in the first electronic device.

15. The first electronic device of claim 14 , wherein the event comprises at least one of a touch input, a button input, an electronic pen input, call reception, message reception, and a notification.

16. The first electronic device of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the communication circuitry to resume the stopped transmission of the data based on state information of the first electronic device or the second electronic device after the transmission of the data is stopped.

17. The first electronic device of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to stop encoding of the data to transmit to the second electronic device when the transmission of the data is stopped.
