    Base One International Corp. www.boic.com Base One's Rich Client Architecture Base One provides a unique approach How Rich Client works for developing Internet-enabled applications, combining both efficiency and ease of programming through its "Rich Client" architecture. With this architecture, it is possible to build graphically intensive programs that look and perform like sophisticated client/server Windows applications, but where data is actually stored and retrieved across the Internet. At the same time, Base One makes it easy to develop such applications on a laptop or desktop and deploy them over the Internet without any changes.

Diese Arbeit stimmt mit der vom Begutachter beurteilten Arbeit über- ein. ……………………………….. …………………………………... Ort, Datum Unterschrift Kurzfassung In dieser Diplomarbeit werden die Ansätze Thin und Rich Client näher betrachtet sowie deren Vor- und Nachteile gegenübergestellt. Es wird ebenfalls bei beiden Ansätzen zwischen Hard- und Software un- terschieden, da die Begriffe für beides verwendet werden. Dazu wird ein Beispielbetrieb analysiert. Ein Thin Client – von der Hardwareseite aus betrachtet – ist ein etwa modemgroßer Rechner mit CPU, RAM und Grafikkarte. Allerdings be- sitzt er keine lokalen Speichermedien wie z. B. Festplatten. Der Unter- schied zu einem klassischen Terminal liegt darin, dass der Thin Client selbst einen Browser und/oder eine Javaumgebung ausführt. Innerhalb dieser werden Thin Client Applikationen lokal ausgeführt. Der Browser kann zum Beispiel auf einem internen Flashspeicher oder auf einem Chip (etwa vergleichbar mit dem BIOS) gespeichert werden. Der Gedanke hinter einer Thin Client-Applikation ist der, dass alle Da- ten vom Server bezogen und sämtliche Verarbeitung von Benutzerein- gaben sowie Berechnungen der Geschäftslogik vom Server durchge- führt werden.

  • Client Virtualization Next-Generation Technologies Enable IT to Increase Productivity, Reduce Complexity, Cut Costs and Improve Management of Devices
    WHITE PAPER Client Virtualization Next-generation technologies enable IT to increase productivity, reduce complexity, cut costs and improve management of devices. It’s time to take a serious look. 1 Executive Summary Table of Contents 2 What Is Client Virtualization? 2 Why Client Virtualization? 3 Presentation Virtualization 4 Application Virtualization 5 Desktop Virtualization 6 Where Is the ROI? 6 Understanding the Risks 7 Managing the User Experience 7 Getting Started 8 CDW: Your Client Virtualization Partner Executive Summary For organizations with hundreds to thousands of endpoints, managing their devices can be an enormous challenge. Employees are more mobile than ever, working from home and on the road, and easy access to the Internet means that most organiza- tions now operate on 24x7 schedules, 365 days a year. The challenges and costs of supporting hundreds or thousands of users utilizing all kinds of devices is something IT has been trying to get under control for quite a while. Client virtualization brings a wide array of products and solutions that offer the promise of finally enabling IT to gain more control over their client infrastructure while at the same time still offering a rich, rewarding experience to users throughout the organization. With client virtualization, IT has the opportunity to reduce total costs, improve security, and enhance compliance and business continuity, thereby beginning to put in place an infrastructure that will be practical, efficient, flexible and scalable for years to come. 2 CLIENT VIRTUALIZATION What Is Client Virtualization? organization would expect to see after implementing client virtualization technologies. At its most basic level, client virtualization technologies enable Patch Management: Think about the tasks involved in patch IT to deploy both applications and desktops in a more efficient management.

  • Database Layout: Client Architecture
    There are two areas of consideration for the needs for data management software 1. Database layout: Centralized Data or Distributed Data 2. Client architecture: Thin-client or Rich-client Database layout: Centralized Data: Pros: Having your data centralized gives the obvious benefit of always having access to the most recent copy of the data. Cons: Computing resources must be shared amongst all logged in users. When querying information there is an increased risk of having "dirty" or "unfinished" data. Because the data originates at the local sites, local personnel may be required to resolve matches or fix problems directly in the central shared data. Legal ownership of and access to the centralized data must also be considered. Distributed Data: Pros: Database computing is distributed across all data systems separately and independently. Data can be "cleaned" prior to transmission to the upper level central database. Data is owned and maintained at local sites. This allows for independent data usage activities that may only be related to local sties. Redundancy provides backup. Cons: Updates to data come incrementally and depending on the system, the lower (source) databases are not updated with subsequent changes from upper levels. There is more effort required to support separate systems. Client architecture: Thin-client: Pros: Minimal installation on user computers. Often access is available from any computer with network access. Cons: Usability tied more closely to the network (speed, availability, security, etc) and sometimes limited in functionality. Lack of technology or network access restrictions prevent some local sites from connecting. Options: Citrix, Windows Terminal Services/Remote Desktop or access over a web page.

  • Smart Client in Business: Expanding the Edges of the Enterprise Network
    Smart Clients in Business: Expanding the Edges of the Enterprise Network White Paper Abstract In the past few years there has been a convergence of two distinct trends in business and technology. Organizations are seeking to extend their enterprises and provide knowledge workers with ever-greater mobility and access to information and applications. Powerful new computing and communications devices along with wireless networks are helping provide that mobility. This has sparked the creation of “smart clients,” or applications and devices that can take advantage of the power of local processing but have the flexibility of Web-based computing. This paper provides a high-level overview of smart clients, the highlights of the technology underlying them, and how businesses are taking advantage of Microsoft technologies to create and use smart clients to address business opportunities.

Boot image Boot image is a computer file containing the complete contents and structure of a computer storage media. When it is transferred on a boot device it allows the associated hardware to boot. This usually includes the operating system, utilities and diagnostics, as well as boot and data recovery information. In a thin client the word "thin" refers to the small boot image which such clients typically require to connect to a network and start up a dedicated web browser or Remote Desktop connection.
