whitepaper MSDN Webcast: .NET Smart Client (Level 200)0000-00-00 Microsoft
  This webcast defines the "smart client" and explores the implications and opportunities for smart client application development. The session will focus heavily on high level demos of technologies like Windows Forms, Compact Framework, and Office System 2003 technologies. It will delve into the tips and tricks, positives and negatives when designing, developing and deploying .NET Smart Client applications. .NET Smart Client Applications can run on many different types of devices and in many different scenarios. Join this webcast to learn when it's smartest to create rich or thin client applications and about how each type handles data and connectivity.

whitepaper Applied Relational Technology: Sun Ray Ultra-Thin Client Success Story0000-00-00 Sun Microsystems
  Sun Microsystems' Sun Ray 100 and Sun Ray 150 ultra-thin clients are being used in a new Solaris software-based IT system to provide information across a network in two of the UKs newest shopping centers. Application and software developer Applied Relational Technology (ART) recently implemented new systems at WestQuay, Southampton and Livingston, Scotland. Both sites are based on Sun Enterprise servers and are designed to improve information flow between center managers, retailers, and customers. The systems use Sun Ray ultra-thin clients for ease of use and simplicity. ART chose Sun for reliability, scalability, value for money, and performance.

whitepaper Configuring RADIUS2004-02-05 Cisco Systems
  RADIUS is a distributed client/server system that secures networks against unauthorized access. In the Cisco implementation, RADIUS clients run on Cisco routers and send authentication requests to a central RADIUS server that contains all user authentication and network service access information. This paper describes the Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) security system, defines its operation, and identifies appropriate and inappropriate network environments for using RADIUS technology.

whitepaper Thin Client Technology: Increase Control and Reduce Costs with Thin Clients and Microsoft Windows Terminal Service2002-08-25 Technical Resource Group
  Thin Client computing is now an accepted strategy for business computing. Thin Client computing is the next generation and the most technologically advanced computing created to solve the problems experienced with the computing desktops of the corporate environment. The Thin Client concept has brought about a higher level of centralized control to the desktop. This paper introduces Windows Terminal Services, Thin Client and Server-based Computing. This paper presents what industry analysts report and their projections on the future for Thin Client computing.

whitepaper HTML Thin Client Implementation2003-07-08 Jade Software
  The HTML Thin Client has been a feature of JADE since the release of JADE 4.0. The HTML Thin Client introduces a programming model built around JADE controls – a model in which controls render their own user interfaces by generating HTML to return to Web browsers and firing events that are handled by JADE code. This paper provides a detailed overview of the HTML Thin Client features, its limitations and how to optimize this interface to provide better performance.

whitepaper Server-Based and Thin Client Computing: Promise and Practicalities2003-10-01 Thin Client Computing
  This paper is intended to provide an insight into two important technology areas – Server-Based Computing and Thin Client devices. Managing distributed client server environments and the ever-evolving personal computer can be a challenge. Introducing a degree of centralisation through a Server Based Computing (SBC) approach can help. But does this approach sit comfortably with modern Web architectures, mobile technology and enterprise applications? This paper considers some of the problems and concerns of IT professionals and the potential for modern Access Infrastructure Software and Thin Client devices to assist in overcoming them.

whitepaper Performance of Remote Display Mechanisms for Thin Client Computing2002-04-10 Columbia University Department of Computer Science
  The growing popularity of thin-client systems makes it important to determine the factors that govern the performance of these thin-client architectures. To assess the viability of the thin-client computing model, we measured the performance of six popular thin-client platforms—Citrix MetaFrame, Microsoft Terminal Services, Sun Ray, Tarantella, VNC, and X—running over a wide range of network access bandwidths. We find that thin-client systems can perform well on web and multimedia applications in LAN environments, but the efficiency of the thin-client protocols varies widely. We analyze the differences in the various approaches and explain the impact of the underlying remote display protocols on overall performance. Our results quantify the impact of different approaches in display encoding primitives, display update policies, and display caching and compression techniques across a broad range of thin-client systems.

whitepaper Optimising Thin Clients for Wireless Active-Media Applications2000-10-01 University of Florida
  The thin client model is uniquely suited for low-bandwidth mobile environments, where resource-poor devices may need to access critical applications over wireless networks. This paper, argues for the significant advantages of using thin clients, and in the same time point to how high network latency could limit its utility. The paper introduces the concept of localization as an optimization approach to reduce the ill effect of high latency on thin client performance, especially in active media applications. The paper presents the localization approach and algorithm, and shows the results of four experimental case studies that quantify the benefit of localization, and the potential success of using thin clients in high latency wireless networks.
