A Revolution in the Software Industry!

From Overview of Web Applications and Services Certificate Course Summer 97 -- 19 June 97. by Geoffrey Fox *
In future one will NOT write software for either
  • Windows95/NT, UNIX, Digital VMS, IBM VM etc.
Rather one will write software for WebWindows defined as the operating environment for World Wide Web
WebWindows builds on top of Web Servers and Web Client open interfaces as in
  • CGI interface for Servers
  • Java or equivalent applet technology for clients
Applications written for WebWindows will be portable to all computers running Web Servers or Clients which hide hardware and native O/S specifics
