Difference between Tablets and Laptops Quiz

More OS features like GPS and gyroscope, new types of apps like augmented reality, connectivity through IEEE 802.11 wireless or cellular data networks.

Client-server computing involves smart PCs interacting with servers to request services, with different types of systems like compute-server and file-server providing interfaces for clients.

In Peer-to-Peer systems, all nodes are considered peers and can act as clients, servers, or both, without a clear distinction between clients and servers.
