whitepaper Thin-Client Branch Connectivity Solution for PBDAC2006-09-01 Hewlett-Packard (HP)
  The Principal Bank for Development and Agriculture Credit (PBDAC) is one of Egypt's largest public sector banks, with a branch in almost every town and village in the country. To improve the overall efficiency of the business, PBDAC decided to automate its operations and connect its 1,018 village branches to the main branch network in such a way that financial information could be shared and updated in real time. It opted for a thin client solution based on HP technology. The HP Compaq Thin Client was superior to competitive products from a technical perspective. It was also a proven solution offering excellent price/performance.

whitepaper Consulting Firm Finds Reliable Remote Access at Lower Cost With Windows 2000 Server0000-00-00 Microsoft
  Tompkins Associates was looking for reliable remote access for its consultants worldwide, so the total operations consulting firm upgraded to Microsoft Windows 2000 Server. The rollout was accomplished with no downtime. The thin client solution lets Tompkins IT staff administer the global network from one location. The firm gains agility from Windows 2000 Server's seamless integration with other Microsoft products such as Microsoft Office 2000 and Microsoft Outlook messaging client. To help select and implement the solution, Tompkins turned to 4Front Systems, a systems integration firm and Microsoft Certified Solutions Provider (MCSP).

whitepaper OpenXUP - An Alternative Approach to Developing Highly Interactive Web Applications2006-08-11 University of New South Wales
  This paper presents an alternative approach to creating highly interactive web user interfaces. The approach is based on the Extensible User Interface Protocol (XUP), a SOAP-based protocol for communicating events and incremental user interface updates on the web. On top of XUP, it has built a web user interface development framework, OpenXUP, consisting of a thin client and a server toolkit which offers a set of event-driven APIs. The framework allows for the rapid development of highly interactive web applications and services.

whitepaper Thin Client Operating System: eLux NG for FUTRO2006-08-01 Unicon Software
  eLux NG (eLux Next Generation) is a newly designed Linux-based embedded operating system, especially developed for FUTRO and SCOVERYs used as Thin Clients in server-based environments, thus taking advantage of the centralization in networks and the reduction of the Total Cost of Ownership for which Thin Clients are known. The eLuxNG software has consolidated the 3-year old eLux1.1 software to a flexible solution supporting more and more hardware platforms. This new flexibility is necessary to use the dynamics of the Open Source development for the evolution of Thin Client computing.

whitepaper An Instant Message-Driven User Interface Framework for Thin Client Applications2006-06-29 University of Leipzig
  Today, thin client applications often rely on the infrastructure of the WWW to deliver their User Interfaces (UIs) to clients. While this approach does not require the deployment of application logic on the client, web-based UIs typically do not provide the same level of usability as window-based UIs. The paper therefore presents a UI framework that combines the flexibility of a thin presentation logic with the usability of a full-featured UI: The approach uses an XMPP-based instant messaging infrastructure to exchange XUL interface descriptions and events between the application logic on the server and a generic UI rendering engine on the client.

whitepaper Model-Based Testing of Thin-Client Web Applications2006-06-01 Radboud University Nijmegen
  This paper presents a novel automated, on-line, model-based testing system for on-the-fly testing of thin-client web applications. Web applications are specified by means of Extended State Machines. To handle dynamic web applications, arbitrarily large and complex state input and output types, and the transport of information from the web-page to the state of the specification, the paper defines a new, ioco like, conformance relation. In this conformance relation a specification is a function from state and input to functions from output to the new states.

whitepaper A Hybrid Thin-Client Protocol for Multimedia Streaming and Interactive Gaming Applications2006-04-24 Association for Computing Machinery
  Despite the growing popularity and advantages of thin-client systems, they still have some important shortcomings. Current thin-client systems are ideally suited to be used with classic office-applications but as soon as multimedia and 3D gaming applications are used they require a large amount of bandwidth and processing power. Furthermore, most of these applications heavily rely on the Graphical Processing Unit (GPU). Due to the architectural design of thin-client systems, they cannot profit from the GPU resulting in slow performance and bad image quality. This paper proposes a thin-client system which addresses these problems: the paper introduces a realtime desktopstreamer using a videocodec to stream the graphical output of applications after GPU-processing to a thin-client device, capable of decoding a videostream.
