Utility Sof'wre

Client-Server

Picture
Answer
Request from club member handled by a script server side (1).
Server accepts request and retrieves training data from database (1)
​Constructs web page to display results of search (1) and sends to client computer (1)

Client-Server

Picture
Answer
To provide a platform for users to run applications (1) and enable users
to access network resources provided by the server. (1)

A client workstation accesses data from a server by making a
connection to the server (1) and issuing a service request. (1)

Client-Server

Picture
Answer
​A description that makes reference to the following points:
• A client uses the address of the server to make a connection (1)
• then the client sends a request to the server/client request services from the server (1)
• The server obtains the address of the client once that client makes a connection to the server (1)
• then the server sends the requested data/services (to the client) (1)
