The basic concept of client-server computing is the splitting of the application logic and the physical location of the data. Some of the participate computers in a client-server system are called client, the others are called server. Both the client and the server are assigned tasks (eg. data management, user interface) that they are best suited to perform. As client-server computing is a relatively new technology, it has frequently being misunderstood by people. There are still many issues regarding client-server computing which are not well explored. Those issues must be examined while the technology is staging into maturity. Client-server computing has become a very important technology due to the benefits it has promised to deliver. Those benefits include a reduction in network traffic, improve access to corporate data, and better user interface. A client-server database management system was implemented using Microsoft Access as a client application and Rdb/VMS as the server database. Some issues surrounding client-server computing were investigated using the implemented system.55 pagesenhttps://researcharchive.lincoln.ac.nz/pages/rightsclient-server computingapplication logicdata managementuser interfaceMicrosoft AccessDissertationDigital thesis can be viewed by current staff and students of Lincoln University only.
