Topic 6: Web Applications

Losing the contact to the friends and letting go of the bond of friendship arrives at this last stepped session of the topic. Having spent times with all the class mate and the lecturer throughout this topic was indicating a red signal to me. But apart from that having a knowledge on Information Technology made me so happy at the end.

Under this topic I learnt about web applications and how it’s functioning. This web applications are really helpful to the users to search information in internet. Netscape Navigator, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, and Opera are examples for web applications.

There are two types of web’s are there.

-Static Web

This is a simple web which can be updated by someone who has the knowledge of website development. Educational and Company websites are coming under this kind of web.

-Dynamic Web

 In this kind of webs clients or users can upload documents and users or administrators can add information to the site.

First generation web is known as Web 1.0, Web 2.0, Web 3.0.  This webs are very useful to users and also people.

In Web 1.0 information is displayed as static content. The most important aspect of this Web 1.0 is Hyper linking of web pages and book marking. This web is in HTML coding. 

Web 2.0 is an advance internet technology. Users can edit externally. Adobe reader, Adobe Flash Player, Oracle java, and Windowes Media are making the web more interactive.

Web 3.0 is about semantic web. It's based on intelligent web applications using such as machine based learning and reasoning and intelligent application. Decision support system and Expert system portal are examples for this web 3.0 .

I think the study of this topic helped me to know more about web (2.0) . Very interesting.
