Java

Paper Summary:

This paper discusses Java - one of the most recently developed computer scripting languages. The paper explains that the three main reasons behind the demand for Java can be quoted as requirement in the increase of productivity by developers, increase in the usage of client-sever model and increase in the number of web applications. The paper points out that Java is also known as Object-Oriented Programming -- OOP. The paper also looks at how Java programming consists of various classes and how these classes consist of objects. These objects in turn guide what action needs to be performed by the program. The paper then looks at Java in the past, present and future.

From the Paper:

"Java has been created by Sun Microsystems. Sun Microsystems began with Java as a project in early 1990s. During this period C and C++ were used throughout. It was found by Sun Microsystems that there are many limitations with the language C++. They decided to develop a language which can overcome the problems and limitations with C++. Like this the development of Java began. Java has got many similarities to C++ but also overcomes its limitations. It took some years to develop Java. Many changes were made and at last Java was transmitted to internet. It was during May 1995, Java was officially launched. The internet and web applications were already in the wider use. Java's usage in web pages had resulted to a warm welcome in the market. It was recognized and widely accepted. Java was gradually used for mission-critical systems as development language on various hardware and operating systems."
