Abstract
... this paper, we advocate moving application complexity from thin clients to an adaptive middleware proxy (AMWP), an infrastructural application server platform designed to support large populations and diverse applications. We describe one such application, Top Gun Wingman, a graphical, split Web browser for the Palm Pilot PDA that is currently in use by more than 11,000 users around the world. Our discussion focuses on the design philosophy, implementation, performance, and lessons learned from our experience with the Wingman client and the middleware proxy that supports it.
