What is Java?
A fundamentally new way of computing,
Based on the power of networks
Write once -- run anywhere
– 450 million vs. 120 million?
With Java technology, you can use the same application on
any kind of machine -- a PC, a Macintosh computer, a
network computer, a Ford car or a Krups coffee pot, or
even new technologies like Internet screen phones.

Java Hype
Java could surpass Windows as the
software platform with the world's
largest base by the turn of the
century. (which century?)
"All of you who have anything to do
with software development ignore JAVA
at your own peril"
" JAVA - TODAY THE WEB,
TOMMOROW THE WORLD!!"

“Thin clients”
Computers designed to be centrally-managed
Configured with only essential equipment
No CD-ROM, disk drives or expansion slots
Therefore lower in cost, esp.
Cost-Of-Ownership.
Net PC (Intel and Windows)
NC (Oracle and Sun)
Web TV

Client systems range from dumb terminals to mostly autonomous PCs.
Thin clients fall in between.

Why is Java important?
With Java technology, the Internet and
private networks become your computing
environment.
Remote computing, thin clients, distributed
control and access
Java animates the Web, makes it interactive,
distributes content and power, and
transforms the internet and information
systems.

E-Business
: Java intro: Prof. Rafaeli
How it works
(in a web browser)
References to java software
(applets) are embedded in HTML
The Java virtual machine first does stringent
security checks, and then runs the applet, which
appears and interoperates inside the browser.
E-Business

Java’s Secret:
the Virtual Machine (VM)
Virtual Machine: a layer of software just above the CPU that
emulates a theoretical ("virtual") chip's behavior.
It hides--or Abstracts--the machine-level stuff into a single layer of
software.
The Java Virtual Machine, when properly implemented, allows a
Java application to run on the CPU for which the VM is written,
regardless of the type of system on which the Java programmers
worked.

How it works (2)
(in a web browser)
The computer's operating system
provides machine-specific support for
many of the actual operations and
interactions.
Result: The user gets an interactive Java
applet running in a browser. The Java virtual
machine serves as consistent platform on
different kinds of computers and operating
systems, so that the same Java applet runs in
browsers on PCs, Macs, UNIX, PDAs,
workstations, Network Computers, and
elsewhere.

Java’s Promises
Simple
– like and unlike C, C++
Object Oriented
Distributed
Robust
– no implementationdependent aspects
– no pointers
Dynamic
– adaptable
High Performance
– could be better
– still hybrid
compile/interpret
– careful at handling
data types
Secure
Portable, small
Multithreaded

Java’s Perils
A native OS might offer features that Java can't use
without sacrificing cross-platform compatibility.
Interpreted Java byte-code doesn't run as fast as
complied native code.
If a program must interact with legacy code or data, a
more established tool or language might work better.
A developer may have superior tools for another
language or may be more productive using a familiar
tool or language.
A developer may not want to change, even if it costs
money and customers.
E-Business

12
Java is not JavaScript
Java is a full-fledged objectoriented programming
language. Hybrid JIT
compilation to byte code.
can be used to create standalone
applications
Both client and server side, and
used much in stand-alone
embedded environments.
Interpreted, does not create
applets or standalone
applications
Mostly client side, but some
server software, (Netscape's
SuiteSpot), lets developers
write CGI programs in a serverside version of JavaScript.
Owned by Netscape
Owned by Sun
A Java-enabled browser is not automatically a JavaScript-enabled browser:
they require entirely separate interpreters (licensed from separate companies)
Rather than competing with each other, Java and JavaScript are a
E-Business
powerful combination.

Applets
Applets vs. applications

Anatomy of an Applet
Reference
<applet code=Filename.class
height=number
width=number
codebase=Directory_containing_applet
align=setting hspace=number vspace=number
name=string>
<param name=name1 value=value1>
<param name=name2 value=value2>
<!-- Define alternate content, for non-Java browsers -->
<H2>Imagine an impressive Java applet
here</H2>
</applet>
E-Business
: Java intro: Prof. Rafaeli
15
Example
<applet code=ScrollingNeonMessage.class
height=200 width=400 codebase=applets>
<param name=MessageText
value="Bookmark this page!">
<param name=ScrollSpeed value=10>
<H2>Bookmark This Page!</H2>
</applet>
E-Business

16
Java applet restrictions
Not too fast!
Byte code, not
compiled
No (or limited) access
to files
Applets have no
memory-- they are
stateless (however
secure servers allow
bypass)
Limitations on number
of sockets open
(connections)
How much of a
closely held property

Microsoft vs. Sun?
Scott McNealy vs. Bill Gates?
Sun thinks (hopes?)
that Java will be an
alternative to Windows
Microsoft thinks otherwise…

C sharp (C#)
After settling its Java lawsuit with Sun Microsystems, Microsoft
announced a new set of software development tools and services
that will allow Java programmers to support Microsoft's new
software strategy.
Called Java User Migration Path to Microsoft.Net, or JUMP to .Net
Microsoft will also ship a tool that converts Java software code to C#
code. C# (pronounced "C-sharp") is a Java-like language that
Microsoft has created to compete against Java.
C# is an object-oriented programming
language. It aims to combine the computing
power of C++ with the programming ease of
Visual Basic. C# is based on C++ and
contains features similar to those of Java.

You can find the applet.class files in your
browser's on-disk cache and copy them
To be used locally
Or on your own server

The “Java backlash”
“It
still does nothing” (?)
Does the world really need programmable toasters?
How
long does it take to develop, load, run?
Will Microsoft succeed in busting the
“platform agnostic” monopoly buster?
Animation, interaction and dynamic content
easier to achieve with DHTML
Is it truly slow, secure, portable?

Is Java taking root?
In
the browser
On the server (servlets)
As commercial applications
In the arena of enterprise applications
In teaching institutions
