The system comprises a plurality of computers, a presentation gateway, and a projector, wherein the computers are stored presentation frames. The method comprises the steps of connecting a first computer to the presentation gateway via a network; downloading a user list on the network from the presentation gateway; submitting a presentation-request signal to a second computer of the user list; and the first computer having a granted authority to access the presentation frames of the second computer while under the condition of the second computer granting the presentation-request signal, and the first computer transmitting the presentation frames of the second computer to the projector through the presentation gateway.
1. A method for controlling a multipoint conference, the multipoint conference having presentation frames stored in a plurality of computers, the plurality of computers being connected each other as a network through a presentation gateway, the method comprising the steps of:
connecting a first computer to the presentation gateway via the network;
downloading a user list on the network from the presentation gateway;
submitting a presentation-request signal to a second computer of the user list; and
the first computer having a granted authority to access the presentation frames of the second computer while under the condition of the second computer granting the presentation-request signal.
2. The method for controlling the multipoint conference according to claim 1 , wherein the first computer transmits the presentation frames of the second computer to a projector through the presentation gateway.
3. The method for controlling the multipoint conference according to claim 1 , wherein the first computer transmits the presentation frames of the second computer to the plurality of computers in the network through the presentation gateway.
4. The method for controlling the multipoint conference according to claim 1 , wherein the first computer lists the second computer into a granted list while under the condition of the second computer granting the presentation-request signal.
5. The method for controlling the multipoint conference according to claim 4 , wherein the user list and the granted list are integrated by means of a conference control module.
6. The method for controlling the multipoint conference according to claim 5 , wherein the conference control module is stored in the presentation gateway, and the conference control module is downloaded to the plurality of computers while the computers are connected to the presentation gateway.
7. The method for controlling the multipoint conference according to claim 1 , wherein the second computer submits an authority-prohibit signal to actively cancel the granted authority of the first computer accessing to the presentation frames of the second computer.
8. The method for controlling the multipoint conference according to claim 1 , wherein the first computer inputs a password provided by the presentation gateway to connect to the network.
