Java programming
Java is a relatively new programming language developed by
Sun Microsystems.
Applications and applets (small web-based programs) written in Java can
be used by your customers, suppliers, and employees,
regardless of where they are or what operating systems
they are using. Java is becoming the language of
choice for internet applications.
Reasons to use us for Java programming:
- We have expertise in developing custom Java solutions,
applets, and applications.
- We have experience in very many languages, databases, and
operating systems, which helps us to understand and integrate
your existing systems into your web applications.
- We have in-house expertise with interfacing Java programs
(such as web-based, graphical user interfaces) with complex servers
and programs written in other languages.
- We have access to proprietary tools and techniques to convert legacy
applications (written in FORTRAN, COBOL, and C) to the same program
written in Java at reduced costs.
Some advantages of Java over traditional programming languages:
- Simplicity: Java is relatively easy to learn and use.
Programs developed in Java are typically a fraction of the size
of similarly programs developed in other languages, and are
typically developed in half the time and at lower cost.
- Platform independence: although, Java is not quite a "write once,
run anywhere" environment, Java comes closer to this goal than any
other programming environment. Any computer running any hardware
(including Intel-based, Macintosh, Sparc, and Hewlett-Packard)
running any operating system (including Windows, MAC OS, OS/2,
Solaris, and Linux) and using any web browser (such as Netscape,
Internet Explorer, and Hot Java) that supports the JVM
(Java Virtual Machine) will run any program developed in pure Java
without any rewriting.
- Web-enabled: Java runs through web browser software. Java
is the common language of internet programming:
most web applets are developed in Java.
- Distributed: Java contains constructs that allow parts of the program
to be encoded to run over multiple machines.
Distributed and even parallel computations are developed almost
as easily as standalone applications.
