The Complete Guide to Client Server Computing

Résumé du livre

Client/server computing may be viewed as an extension of modular programming. A modular framework simplifies development and maintenance. As modules become obsolete, they can be replaced or upgraded without replacing the entire system.

Client server computing recognizes that all modules do not have to be executed with the same memory location -- the calling module or "client" can request information from the service module or "servers". Because client/server applications rely on communications networks for processing and retrieving information, the management of the entire network is absolutely critical.

The Complete Guide to Client Server Computing covers all phases of client/server technology management. The book focuses not only on the technology aspects of client/server computing but also on the management business issues.
