Java, The Web and Computer Science. Why are you Here?

Given by Geoffrey C. Fox at Introduction to Java Academy on 7 Feb 98. Foils prepared 6 Feb 98

We first describe the Internet and its growth
Then the Software model showing where Java fits in
Then we describe a computer and where web Technology and Java fit in
Although designed for the web, Java (and other Web technologies) is a totally general programming language which can be used to program a computer to do anything!

E.g. we will use in our next project to teach computer to model behavior of stock market -- this will be written in Java
Learning Java is best preparation there is for a career in computing -- in University or Business

We list some good features of Java
We give some examples

This mixed presentation uses parts of the following base foilsets which can also be looked at on their own!
