Abstract

In Today’s techno savvy world the android operating system based smartphone plays a huge role in the technical field, and also provides various useful applications which can be used in day to day lives. This paper discusses about another such application which can access the computer connected to it. The key objective of the application is to remotely access and monitor different tasks running on the PC by connecting it to an Android operating system based mobile phone through a network (internet). This application turns your mobile phone into a controller and viewer that can monitor the tasks running on PC and also view its desktop. Both the PC and mobile phone need to be connected to internet. In this paper we will discuss the process of accessing and monitoring the computers with the help of android cell-phones. This process is based on VNC (virtual network computing) architecture. We must install a server on target computer connected to internet and client on the android mobile phone (user). The user can perform operations using this application through the internet on computers with various platforms like Linux, Mac and Windows etc. There are several functions provided to ease the viewing of desktop on android cell-phones. Shortcut functions are provided that can be used to quickly access the frequently used area. Screenshots of the target PC will be sent on the users’ cell-phone after defined time intervals. The user needs to install a server Application on the target PC and a client application on the android mobile phone. Both applications are going to be developed in Java Using Eclipse or JDK. To reduce effort of user and solve problems due to the mobile phone’s small screen, several functions are provided on the mobile viewer. Remote Frame Buffer or RFB Protocol is used to access Graphical User Interface of remote computer. The system will use Remote method invocation (RMI) and screen image capturing technique to implement VNC. The viewing of tasks running on target machine Json parsing is used in the proposed system. The application will be executed on android stack as well as mobile phone. The functions such as mouse clicking or keyboard operating, closing tasks, playing media can be perform on server computer.
