Conceptual architecture design and configuration of thin client system for schools in Malaysia: a pilot project

Thin client systems have advanced recently with new innovative design extensions such as virtualisation and cloud computing. Client-server architecture is the basis for thin client system to connect remote multi-workstations to administrative servers located in headquarters or data center. This pape...
