Following is another arrangement of the thin clients on the 4x4 grid, and the resulting arrangement of the monitors. In this configuration, moving the mouse pointer off the right side of the thin client A monitors will cause it to appear on the upper 1/3 of the left side of the thin client D monitors. Similarly, moving the mouse pointer off the right side of the thin client B monitors will cause it to appear in the middle 1/3 of the left side of the thin client D monitors. Finally, moving the mouse pointer off the right side of the thin client C monitors will cause it to appear in the lower 1/3 of the left side of the thin client D monitors. NOTE: Desktop windows cannot span the thin clients or be moved between client computers. Typically, each thin client will create windows based on its connection to an associated remote computer, and there won't be a need to move windows between thin clients. The thin client physically connected to the keyboard and mouse is referred to as the aggregation server. The other thin clients are referred to as aggregation clients. When the mouse pointer is on one of the aggregation clients, the mouse and keyboard inputs (from the aggregation server thin client) are encrypted and sent over the network to the selected aggregation client. The aggregation client decrypts the mouse and keyboard inputs and passes the inputs to the local desktop of the aggregation client. Client aggregation is based on an open source software package called Synergy, with encryption provided by a package called stunnel. Peripherals 31

Following is another arrangement of the thin clients on the 4x4 grid, and the resulting arrangement of
the monitors.
In this configuration, moving the mouse pointer off the right side of the thin client A monitors will
cause it to appear on the upper 1/3 of the left side of the thin client D monitors. Similarly, moving the
mouse pointer off the right side of the thin client B monitors will cause it to appear in the middle 1/3 of
the left side of the thin client D monitors. Finally, moving the mouse pointer off the right side of the
thin client C monitors will cause it to appear in the lower 1/3 of the left side of the thin client D
monitors.
NOTE:
Desktop windows cannot span the thin clients or be moved between client computers.
Typically, each thin client will create windows based on its connection to an associated remote
computer, and there won’t be a need to move windows between thin clients.
The thin client physically connected to the keyboard and mouse is referred to as the aggregation
server. The other thin clients are referred to as aggregation clients. When the mouse pointer is on
