Foil 26 Where does Java/Web Technology Fit In?

From Untitled presentation Jamesville DeWitt Middle School 5th Grade / Modifications for Java Academy Talk -- 2 April 97. by Geoffrey C. Fox


1 Web Technology consists firstly of a set of formats for data
2 If data is type of information that appears in books, then format tells you things like "center text", "start new paragraph" etc.
3 Web formats include GIF or JPEG for images, HTML for documents and VRML for 3D pictures. These are used to specify stored data
4 The other component of Web technology is software such as Java JavaScript and Perl which are used to give instructions to compute.
5 These formats and software produce information displayed by HTML or VRML browsers
6 Web technology is so powerful as complete model for computing and communication and Java is a universal language
