pTHINC: A Thin-Client Architecture for Mobile Wireless Web
Overview Although web applications are gaining popularity on mobile wireless PDAs, web browsers on these systems can be quite slow and often lack adequate functionality to access many web sites. This paper has developed pTHINC, a PDA thin-client solution that leverages more powerful servers to run full-function web browsers and other application logic, and then sends simple screen updates to the PDA for display. pTHINC uses server-side screen scaling to provide high-fidelity display and seamless mobility across a broad range of different clients and screen sizes, including both portrait and landscape viewing modes. pTHINC also leverages existing PDA control buttons to improve system usability and maximize available screen resolution for application display. It implements pTHINC on Windows Mobile and evaluated its performance on mobile wireless devices.
