The rapid advance of network technologies leaves no doubt that client-server applications running over the Internet will in the future be one of the most prevalent types of software program. This extension of client-server applications to Internet is based on available technologies and outlines a preliminary framework for developing applications, which extends a traditional client-server application to the Internet and allows the developers to follow a standard procedure and focus on the implementation of application functions. An Internet extended client-server application takes advantage of all currently available Internet technologies, such as open network communication protocol, well-proven application models and flexible system architecture.
