English term

thick and thin clients

English to Portuguese Other IT (Information Technology) Software development
This allowed for frequent, user-reviewed changes to the presentation of the data without requiring costly engineering change proposals or repetitive integration testing cycles. (Indirectly, this led to thick and thin clients, and ultimately paved the way for today’s web-based user interfaces.)

A Daniel Tavares "Prefiro que os termos não sejam traduzidos, mas sua sugestão não ficou tão ruim quanto outras que vi aqui."
Achei seu comentário bastante deselegante. Isso não é uma característica sua. Acordou de mau humor hoje?

clientes de grande e pequeno porte (grandes e pequenos)

thin client - technical definition
In a client/server network, client software or a client node that has little in the way of resources such as memory, disk space, and processing power and, therefore, relies on the server to provide those resources. A browser, for example, provides client access to server-hosted applications, data, and processing. A diskless workstation is an example of a thin client node. See also browser, client, client/server, dumb terminal, fat client, node, server, and software.

fat client - technical definition
In contrast to a thin client, a fat client possesses considerable resources (e.g., memory, hard drive storage, and processing power) and functionality independent of a server. See also client, client/server, server, and thin client.

agree Daniel Tavares : Não, não traduza. Se você quiser mesmo traduzir, dê uma volta, conte até dez, beba uma água, não fume um cigarro, tome um café, e deixe a vontade passar.

hehehe... boa! :)
agree Joao Correia : Isto mesmo. Thin e Fat Clients são termos inerentes a IT que não se traduzem, muito como bit e byte, por exemplo.

servidores e estações de trabalho

A thin client (sometimes also called a lean or slim client) is a computer or a computer program which depends heavily on some other computer (its server) to fulfill its traditional computational roles. This stands in contrast to the traditional fat client, a computer designed to take on these roles by itself. The exact roles assumed by the server may vary, from providing data persistence (for example, for diskless nodes) to actual information processing on the client's behalf.
Peer comment(s):
disagree Daniel Tavares : Sorry, a server is not a thick client.
