Client/Server Survival Guide with OS/2
Robert Orfali, Dan Harkey · CERN Document Server (European Organization for Nuclear Research) · 1994
From the Publisher: A complete guide to client/server computing and the revolutionary changes occurring within the client/server paradigm. Orfali and Harkey give you the lowdown on the current crop of operating systems including OS/2, Windows NT, Windows 3.X, UNIX and NetWare. They also take a close look at communication stacks, distributed computing environments and messaging middleware from top manufacturers and go beyond the hype to provide a reality check on the database service, TP Monitor, groupware and distributed object models of client/servers. Finally, they offer invaluable information on designing, building, deploying and managing client/server applications.
