In a Nutshell: The RevaSoft Ultra Light Client is a new architecture to address the fat client problem. The principal idea is to run applications on a centrally controlled application server. Only the presentation part of an application is run on the client's desktop. The presentation part is implemented by a universal user interface engine (UI Engine).

ULC produces thin, easily distributable, low bandwidth client applications.
