[edit] XploRe Quantlet Client
With the XploRe Quantlet Client users can run XploRe as Java-Applet in a webbrowser. The applet transmits the user commands via a TCP/IP based communication protocol to the XploRe Quantlet Server, which computes the necessary results and sends them back to the client.
This technology is used as well to enrich electronic books (http://www.xplore-stat.de/ebooks/ebooks.html) with interactive examples.
