Borko Furht, Chris Phoenix, John Yin, Z. Aganovic · Internet and communications · 2000
In recent years, business on the Internet has exponentially increased. Consequently, the deployment and management of business applications on the Internet is becoming more and more complex, which requires the development of new Internet architectures suitable to efficiently run these business applications. In this chapter we present and evaluate several computing models and related Internet architectures for application service providers. We also introduce the server-based model and the corresponding Internet architecture and two case studies, which use the proposed architecture for application deployment.
