Client-Server computing is a traditional two-tier architecture. Client "requests" the server for some service or operation, Server "responds" the client with the desired results if the service is available. Client can be a single process or multiple process process on a machine. While server can be single process or mutiple process running either on single or multiple machines.

E.g of Client/Server :

1) Web browser accessing web pages from a web server.

2) Yahoo messeneger accessing Yahoo chat server for chat services.
