Sinossi
No terms in computing are more pervasive and less understood than Open Systems and Client/Server. The technology-shift away from centralized, often mainframe-based systems towards the distributed client/server model characterizes computing in the 1990s and is, in large part, made possible by standardised open system components. If you have responsibility for management, procurement or implementation of a modern computer system, you need to be aware of open systems and client/server, the technologies they encapsulate and their importance to you.
This book provides a complete overview of computer hardware and software technology, emerging trends and the impact of open systems and the client/server model on the enterprise's business decisions and practices. On reading it, you will be able to define the term 'Client/Server Architecture'; define the term 'Open Systems'; compare the relative strengths and weaknesses of the client/server model and the traditional timesharing approach; understand the developments in computer hardware, operating systems, networks and application software which have led the move to smaller distributed systems; assess the opportunities presented by Client/Server and the pitfalls inherent in implementing it; evaluate current client and server applications; better predict future trends in distributed computing technologies, and understand the benefits of the new computing model for your enterprise and your customers.

paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Most of our very good books have only minor imperfections such as shelf wear consistent with a new book that's sat on a bookshop shelf for a year or two. Occasionally we may miss other minor imperfections as we have to grade books at speed. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
