Scalable buffer remote access

A method of scalable buffer remote access, the method comprising:

• initiating an scalable buffer remote access session, wherein initiating the scalable buffer remote access session includes:
• receiving host display information indicating a display area of an operating environment of a host device,
• generating, at a client device, a scalable display buffer request indicating:
• a portion of the display area of the operating environment of the host device;
• and
• a scaling factor ratio, and
• transmitting the scalable display buffer request to the host device via an electronic communication network;
• receiving, via the electronic communication network, rendered content including a rendering of a representation of the portion of the display area of the operating environment of the host device, wherein the rendered content is scaled based on the scaling factor ratio;
• and
• presenting a client display window including the rendered content as a window into the display area of the operating environment of the host device by outputting the client display window to a graphical display device of the client device.
