The desktop startup module 400 is configured to start a virtual desktop to view the running of the launched application on the virtual machine after the connection management module establishes a remote desktop connection with the virtual machine server or the base station.

Due to the small traffic, the simple instant messaging application is suitable for the traditional local operation mode, which can save traffic compared to the virtual desktop mode. When computing a more complex computing application or a storage application with a larger amount of data, It is better to use the virtual desktop mode, because it can effectively utilize the powerful computing power and storage capacity of the server-side host to reduce the computing and storage pressure of the terminal.

For example, the data traffic of audio and video services is significantly larger than that of instant messaging services. In addition, the same services are in virtual desktop mode and in traditional mode. The data traffic consumed during operation is quite different. For example, it is also an instant messaging service. The data traffic consumed in the virtual desktop mode is several times that of the traditional mode.

In fact, different business types are suitable for running in different modes. The mobile terminal in the present invention, By interacting with the network side device, the optimal operation mode of the application can be determined according to the service characteristics, and the automatic switching between the traditional mode and the virtual desktop mode is realized, thereby achieving a balance between the energy consumption of the mobile terminal and the air traffic consumption of the air interface.
