Dumb terminals are systems which lack core components of a normal computer and rely on a server or cluster system that provides the calculations and processes to emulate a services or operating system.
In many cases dumb terminals can increase security, decrease power usage and centralize desktop loads because everyone has a uniform desktop and allows anyone to use anyone's computer and have the same function all the time.
Dumb terminals had a height of popularity back in the early days of computing but with computer actualization becoming more commonplace they are experiencing a resurgence of popularity as a method of cost saving and maximizing resources on existing platforms.

What is the difference between dumb and smart terminals?
Dumb terminals are input/output devices that lack processing capabilities and rely on a mainframe or server for processing tasks, whereas smart terminals have some processing capabilities and can perform certain tasks independently. Dumb terminals typically have limited functionality and rely heavily on the mainframe or server for computing power, while smart terminals can handle some tasks locally before sending data to the mainframe. In summary, the key difference lies in the processing capabilities and independence of the terminals in executing tasks.
