Even the most thin-client architectures need some storage on the client, at least for a session identifier. The HTTP protocol has a stateless nature, and if we exclude its troublesome authentication mechanism, requests can't be natively grouped by client.
The Client Session State pattern is the choice of storing all session data on the client, so that it is sent back with every request and updated in some responses. The mechanisms for accomplishing this vary.
