This paper proposes a new pervasive computing paradigm:transparence computing.The hardware environment of this paradigm still consists of clients and servers.However

the clients should be computing devices designed with the transparence computing paradigm.These devices can be desktop or mobile one

such as PDA or mobile phone.The server of this paradigm is a machine with a hard disk

including a general PC.In transparence computing paradigm

no OS

middleware and any application program are installed in the clients

they are loaded from the server through network dynamically when users want to run them in a client.Users can choose any OS and application programs running on it

which has been installed in the server and can be run by the clients.Transparence computing paradigm can improve the security of the information systems

reduce the complexity of the managements

improve the sharing of software and reduce the costs of hardware and software of information systems greatly.This paper introduces the concept and architecture of the transparence computing paradigm.Moreover

we also give an application example of this paradigm.This example is Manageable Multimedia Network Computer (MMNC)

which has been developed and commercialized.MMNC system can show the transparence computing is feasible and effective.
