Abstract
This chapter addresses some generic components shared by client applications that are using the core entity services described in Chap. 19. We will discuss these components and their implementation by example of the Personal Competence Manager (Vogten et al. 2008) (PCM). Because these components are generic for most client applications, discussing their implementation will support developers who want to implement their own applications using the Learning Network infrastructure (Lemmers et al. 2008). Although the PCM is a rich client application, the components discussed in this chapter are also relevant for web applications, although their actual implementation may be different for a web environment. Before going into details we will briefly introduce the PCM.
