dbo:abstract
  • The MarioNet Internet Appliance is an application that runs on a server and sends pre-rendered graphical images to a light-weight client for display. It was prototyped in January 1999 at iCentrix Ltd in Andover, Hampshire, UK, by former Caldera UK employees led by Roger Alan Gross and Andrew Thomas Wightman. The concept behind MarioNet was to build a thin-client browser to provide web-based content to very small client platforms with little RAM or ROM and minimal processing power. It was designed to run on a range of embedded operating systems or indeed a ROM platform without an operating system. The server side used Mozilla, the recently open-sourced web browser based on Netscape's Navigator. A proprietary protocol called OPTIC was used to communicate between the two parts. Target client devices included cell phones, tablet devices, touch screen information kiosks and vending machines. (en)
