Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method and apparatus for controlling a first display module is provided, the first display module associated with a client device in communication with a server enabled to generate data for display on a second display module having a screen size larger than a screen size of the first display module, the data having an active area. Data is received at the client device. The first display module is controlled to generate a representation of a first portion of the data including the active area, the representation of the first portion representative of a peephole superimposed on the second display module, the peephole less than or equal to a size of a screen of the first display module. Input indicative that the peephole is to be shifted to an edge of the active area is received. The first display module is controlled to generate a representation of a second portion of the data including the edge, such that the peephole is shifted to the edge of the active area.
