Pro Service-Oriented Smart Clients with .NET 2.0 demonstrates how Smart Clients satisfy multiple purposes. First, you deploy a Smart Client application to a server and send your user base a URL. Then, when a user clicks the link, the server downloads the application to the end users machine and then runs it on the client, just like a desktop application.

This book satisfies growing demand for a professional resource on Smart Clients. This comprehensive book is unique because it touches all of the bases: agility, service orientation, testing intelligence, and even a definition of what the "smart" in Smart Client means.

Whether building a console application, a web service, or a smart client, you eventually need to distribute your finished work. Deploying .NET Applications is a complete guide to delivering applications built with .NET. Packed with hands-on guidance, practical examples, and war stories from the authors many experiences with deployment scenarios, this book provides everything you need to know.

The book begins by introducing the deployment problem, then examines why deployment is an engineering problem for organizations. Subsequent chapters provide detail about deploying each type of application, then discuss automated deployments.
