  • Thin client
    1)A user's computer that performs no application processing. It functions like an input/output terminal, processing only keyboard and mouse input and screen output, and all application processing is done in the server. This is a "thin processing" client and is accomplished using Windows Terminal Server, Citrix Presentation Server and X Window. 2) A user's computer that performs all the application processing, but stores nothing locally. It downloads the application from the server and runs it and returns any updated data to the server. The next time the program is run, it is downloaded again. This is a "thin storage" client that is embodied in the network computer, which never became popular.

  • Virtualization
    In computing, virtualization is a broad term that refers to the abstraction of computer resources. One useful definition is "a technique for hiding the physical characteristics of computing resources from the way in which other systems, applications, or end users interact with those resources. This includes making a single physical resource (such as a server, an operating system, an application, or storage device) appear to function as multiple logical resources; or it can include making multiple physical resources (such as storage devices or servers) appear as a single logical resource."
