ASP. net "Atlas" is a package of new web development technologies that integrates an extensive set of client script libraries with the rich, server-based development platform of ASP. NET 2.0. "Atlas" enables you to develop Web applications that can update data on a web page by making direct callto a web server-without needing to round trip the page. with "Atlas", you can take advantage of the best of ASP. net and server-side code while doing much of the work in the browser, enabling a richer user experience.

ASP. NET "Atlas" schemdes:

1. Client script libraries that provide a complete solution for creating client-based Web applications. the client script libraries support object-oriented development, cross-browser compatibility, asynchronous callto Web Services, and behaviors and components for creating a full-featured UI.
2. Web server controls that provide a declarative way to emit markup and client script for "Atlas" features.
3. Web services, such as ASP. NET profiles, that can add useful server-side features to an "Atlas" application.
