The article describes a mathematical model of a three-tier client-server architecture. The importance of using an intermediate server (application server), which provides preliminary data processing, is shown. Analytical conditions are obtained under which a three-tier architecture is more efficient than a two-tier one. Methods are proposed for increasing the performance of client-server systems in the tasks of automating production processes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
