Origin of Java
In 1991, Java was developed by a team led by James
Gosling and Patrick Naughton at Sun Microsystems.

electronic appliances ‐ the cable TV switchboxes.
Different manufacturers may choose different centralDifferent manufacturers may choose different central
processing units (CPUs).
The cable TV switchboxes devices do not have a lot of
power or memory.
The language;
Had to be small and generate very tight code.
Not be tied to any single architecture.

A two‐step Java translation process have been
developed:
Programs written in Java were translated into an
intermediate language, known the byte code.
Th th b t d ld b t l t d i t hiThen, the byte code would be translated into machine
language.

In 1994, Java was used to develop a Web browser,
named HotJava.

programs over the internet, known as the applets.
Capable to display animation and interact with the user.
In 1995, Netscape incorporated Java technology
into its Netscape browser.
Then, other Internet companies followed . . .

The Java programming language is a relatively high‐
level language, class‐based and object‐oriented.

10. Application Program InterfaceApplication Program Interface
Java application program interface (API) contains
the predefined classes and interfaces for developing
Java programs.
In 1995, Java 1.0 was introduced.
With 211 classes and interfaces.
In December 1998, Java 2 platform was announced.

There are 3 editions of the Java API:
Java 2 standard edition (J2SE)Java 2 standard edition (J2SE)
• Client‐side standalone applications or applets.
Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) p ( )
• Server‐side applications, such as Java servlets and
JavaServer Pages.

There are many versions of J2SE.
Sun releases each version of J2SE with a Java
Development toolkit (JDK)Development toolkit (JDK).
JDK consists of a set of separate programs for
developing and testing Java programsdeveloping and testing Java programs.
Each of which is invoked from a command line.
For J2SE 5 0 the Java development toolkit is calledFor J2SE 5.0, the Java development toolkit is called
JDK 5 – formerly was known as JDK1.5.
The latest version is J2SE 6.

16. Byte‐Code and the
i l hi ( )Java Virtual Machine (JVM)
The Java compiler translates Java programs into
byte‐code.
Once compiled to byte‐code, a Java program can be used
on any computer, making it very portable machine.
The Java Virtual Machine (JVM) translates the byteThe Java Virtual Machine (JVM) translates the byte
code into machine language.

17. PortabilityPortability
Portable means that a program may be writtenPortable means that a program may be written
on one type of computer and then run on a wide
variety of computers, with little or noy p
modification.
Java byte code runs on the JVM and not on any
ti l CPU th f il d Jparticular CPU; therefore, compiled Java
programs are highly portable.
JVMs exist on many platforms:JVMs exist on many platforms:
