This paper describes the design and implementation of desktop video conference system using client-server and P2P(Peer to Peer). This systems is based on a client-server and P2P architecture, where clientserver is used for the communication with the MCU(Multipoint Control Unit) and P2P is used for the real time video conference. Also, developed system is tested by the desktop video conference s...

Current client-server object database management systems employ either a page server or an object server architecture. Both of these architectures have their respective strengths, but they also have key drawbacks for important system and workload configurations. We propose a new hybrid server architecture which combines the best features of both page server and object server architectures while...

Workstation utility may be enhanced by the addition of audio and telephony functions for a number of applications, such as voice mail, multi-media documents, and computer conferencing. We outline the requirements of these applications, and present an audio server architecture employing a personal computer with a disk and speech-processing board as a server dedicated to the workstation. The func...

This paper reports on experiments and experiences with implementations of collaborative client/server archi-tectures, a software project that involved all students in the class. Nominally, the major goal of the special topics graduate class was to explore the Frontiers of collaborative computing on the Internet. The class brought together a team of seven students, each with some programming exp...

Interactive applications such as email, calendar, and maps are migrating from local desktop machines to data centers due to the many advantages offered by such a computing environment. Furthermore, this trend is creating a marked increase in the deployment of servers at data centers. To ride the price/performance curves for CPU, memory and other hardware, inexpensive commodity machines are the ...

Despite the widespread deployment of client/server technology, there seem to be no tools currently available that are adequate for analyzing and tuning the performance of client/server systems. We show that the performance analysis of n-tier client/server systems poses requirements that cannot be satisfied by the currently available monitoring tools for parallel and distributed software. This i...

This paper proposes three enhancements to the TCP splicing mechanism: (1) Enable the same TCP connection to be simultaneously spliced through multiple machines for better scalability; (2) Make a spliced connection faulttolerant to proxy failures; and (3) Provide flexibility of splitting the splicing functionality between a proxy and a backend server for further increasing the scalability of a w...
