Introduction

NewI\O is an internet application system. It is similar to many things, but it is, to my knowledge, not exactly like anything.

It is something like a Rich Internet Application system. So in some ways it would be a competitor to things like Sun's Java System (the system, not the programming language), Flash, etc. However, unlike these systems, there is no application downloading involved. The programs run on the server.

It is an Internet application system so Ajax could be considered a competitive technology, but NewI\O has nothing to do with the World Wide Web.

NewI\O is a Display Over IP (DOIP) technology, and in this way other competitors would be X Windows, VNC, Citrix and thin clients. However these solutions are typically aimed at remote desktop solutions, while NewI\O is aimed at running a single application across the net. It is not a remote desktop solution.

Basically, NewI\O is a system that consists of an application browser that handles the I/O (display, audio, keyboard, mouse, etc.) of a NewI\O program running on a server.
