II. LITERATURE REVIEW

A. THIN CLIENT/SERVER-BASED COMPUTING (TCSBC)

For the purpose of this thesis, thin clients will be

identified as “diskless” desktop devices that must rely on a

centrally located server for computing capacity.

Thin

clients contain no hard drive, floppy drive or CD-ROM.

Server-based computing refers to the accessing and

running of user applications from a centrally located

server. The WYSE S90, used for experiments in this thesis,

includes some user applications available with its Windows

XP embedded (XPe) software, such as Microsoft Internet

Explorer 6.0 and Windows Media Player. However, most

applications are accessed and run via the centrally located

server named Terminal Server 1 or “TSVR01”.

B. WYSE S90 OVERVIEW

The WYSE S90 is known as a Windows Based Terminal

(WBT), as shown in Figure 1. It uses Remote Desktop

Protocol (RDP) to connect to the server and display Windows

applications on the user’s screen.
