Client Workstation

In this discussion, the client workstation is considered to be the machine hosting the client application part of a Distributed Processing application. As an option, the Comm. Bridge can reside on the client workstation, depending on the desired configuration. Although not generally done, the client and server applications can also reside on the same machine. For the purpose of discussion, the client workstation is considered the machine where the client application resides even if the server application resides on the same machine.
