.NET Platform Overview

The .NET platform is a distributed computing programming platform built on internet 
standards (XML, SOAP, HTTP) that allows heterogeneous systems to communicate with 
any device through the use of web services.  By moving from traditional client/server 
programming, .NET is a move to allow processing to occur wherever it makes the most 
sense, whether that is on a server, PC, handheld, or other smart device.  This talk will 
cover an overview of the .NET platform and will describe the technical pieces included in 
the platform.
