| Summary: | This research will explorethe feasibility of replacing traditional networked desktop personal computers (PC) with a thin client/server-based computing (TCSBC) architecture. After becoming nearly extinct in the early 1990s, thin clients are emerging on the forefront of technology with numerous bandwidth improvements and cost reduction benefits. The results show that TCSBC could provide a practical and financially sound solution in meeting the Navy's need to reduce costs and propagate the latest technology to all personnel. This solution may not meet the requirements of all naval commands. A thorough performance analysis should be conducted of the applications employed and the overall expenditures prior to implementation. === US Navy (USN) author. |
