A Review of Designing and Implementing an Embedded System Using Client Server and Web Technology for Monitoring and Controlling of Physical Parameters

Abstract

Enabling embedded System developed for working in a network environment can provide a lot of opportunities in monitoring and controlling of same from different geographical areas. It may be in a peer to peer type or client server type depending on type of application. Adding web features for such an application, system will be accessible from anywhere from the web. System developed here mainly focus on the issues of possibility of deployment of the system from LAN and Web. Stated study is a microcontroller based embedded system for monitoring and controlling of parameters like temperature and humidity. It can be implemented using simple client server technology as well as web technology. Users belong to the organizational domain can use their own Intranet for monitoring and controlling of parameters designed on simple client server technology whereas users beyond the scope of Intranet can use Internet interface designed using web technology. Both the technologies are having its own advantages as well as disadvantages. This paper explores the technological implications of the system using client server as well as web technology.
