Web Access is a web interface - a page you visit using your browser that displays a list of all the applications published from a particular Terminal Server. To launch one of these published applications you simply click on its icon. Once you've launched the applications you need TS Web Access has served its purpose and you don't need it open any more to work with the applications.
TS Gateway allows RDP clients to communicate with a Terminal Server using HTTPS instead of RDP. More precisely, it wraps the RDP communication inside HTTPS, so it's still RDP on the inside but looks like HTTPS on the outside. This allows you to access a Terminal Server securely over the Internet and to go through firewalls. The TS Gateway is, therefore, used from the time a published application is launched until it is finished.
