Calamity \Ca*lam"i*ty\n.; pl. {Calamities}. [L. calamitas, akin       to in-columis unharmed: cf. F. calamit[82]]       1.

client          A computer system or process that requests a       service of another computer system or process (a "{server}")       using some kind of {protocol} and accepts the server's       responses.   A client is part of a {client-server} software       architecture.          For example, a {workstation} requesting the contents of a file       from a {file server} is a client of the file server.          (1997-10-27)

client-server          A common form of {distributed system} in which       software is split between {server} tasks and {client} tasks.       A client sends requests to a server, according to some       {protocol}, asking for information or action, and the server       responds.          This is analogous to a customer (client) who sends an order       (request) on an order form to a supplier (server) who       despatches the goods and an invoice (response).   The order       form and invoice are part of the "protocol" used to       communicate in this case.          There may be either one centralised server or several       distributed ones.   This model allows clients and servers to be       placed independently on {nodes} in a {network}, possibly on       different {hardware} and {operating systems} appropriate to       their function, e.g. fast server/cheap client.          Examples are the name-server/name-resolver relationship in       {DNS}, the file-server/file-client relationship in {NFS} and       the screen server/client application split in the {X Window       System}.          {Usenet} newsgroup: {news:comp.client-server}.          ["The Essential Client/Server Survival Guide", 2nd edition,       1996].          (1998-01-25)
