What is a Smart Client? | |
|
||
| Time: 00:00 EST/05:00 GMT | News Source: Microsoft | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||
|
Smart client applications come in many shapes and sizes with varying degrees of functionality. One trait that all smart client applications share is an ability to exploit local resources such as hardware for storage, processing or data capture such as compact flash memory, CPUs and scanners for example. Smart client solutions offer hi-fidelity end-user experiences by taking full advantage of all that the Microsoft® Windows® platform has to offer. Examples of well known smart client applications are Word, Excel, MS Money, and even PC games such as Half-Life 2. Unlike "browser-based" applications such as Amazon.Com or eBay.com, smart client applications live on your PC, laptop, Tablet PC, or smart device. | ||
