Rich Internal Applicaiton Developemant
Rich Internet Application or RIA – is an Internet application with close to traditional desktop applications look, feel and functionality. RIA works directly from your favorite web browser and has advanced, while user-friendly graphic interface (with such features as drug & drop for example), an ability to work without re-loads of page and long delays (typical for traditional web sites). Typical platforms used to develop RIA are Adobe Flash/Flex, MS Silverlight and Ajax.
