. I do know that the net offers powerful parallel processing, powerful language and platform independence for all kinds of big data, and of course the real-time perusal of the net itself and its contents. But the cloud type of services also offer the spread of potent platform independent virus programs, unknown destinations of your data and programs, along with the risks associated with cross border support of some kinds of programs and data. There can also be legal repercussions in some cases should some treaty, law or other rule be broken in the containment, transmission and operation of such programs. So how is that to be handled?

If you use configuration classes, each application can have overloaded classes for each type of use, whether it is a IOT device, a phone, a notepad, a surface type device, a notebook, a desktop or even a complex system created for solving completely unique problems (thinking n-dimensional computing structures here.) This kind of makes sense. Each interface could have its own descriptors that could be proportionally used to set the default settings and operate within the particular hardware design and still give a good user experience. Does this kind of apply to your use here?
