Web Application

Assalamualaikum...


Hai!! Today, I'm going to write about Web application which is the last topic in this course and it going to be my last post too. Web application is any service or application in internet. While web browsers are application that allow users to retrieve data and interact with the content located on webpage within the website.

The example of web application




            Static and dynamic are the types of web application. The static web is regarded as a read-only web such as web 1.0. It provided information that allow people to view and read the web but they cannot edit the web. While, dynamic web is an active web that used for interaction between people and software. Visitors can read, view, edit and give comment in dynamic web. 


Besides that, if not my mistaken I have told you about computer generation but now I'm not going to explain about the computer generation but I want to explain about web generation. There's not only computer have generation but web also have that. However web just have 3 generation. The first generation is web 1.0. This is a static webpage and it used to create web using HTML coding. The important component in this web is hyperlink. Usually web 1.0 is an education and company website. 


The second generation is web 2.0. This web allows user to interact with website. This web is a combination of lots of technology. 



The last generation is web 3.0. This is an intelligence web or semantic web. It helps people to make discussion. I want to focus more about web 2.0. There are 2 main group of web 2.0. The first one is online social network. It allows people to communicate and meet people all over the world. It also known as social sites. 









         The second main group of web 2.0 is Aggregrator or Mashup. This is a website that can takes different content form another website and mixes them together to create a new kind of content. Data aggregrator and video aggregrator are the  example of aggregrator.


       Programming Language is used in web application that enables a programmer to communicate with a computer such as XML and AJAX. Programming language was divided by 2 types. The first one is low-level language. It is a machine dependent language. It covers the first and second generation. The second one is high-level language. It more user-friendly. It covers from third generation until the fifth generation.




     The first generation is machine-language. It is a 2 combination of letters and number that represent binary digits. Secondly, assemble language is a symbolic instruction code. Next, is a procedural language (3GLs). The forth one is non-procedural language. It used graphical tools. The last one is object-oriented and web development tools such as JAVA script. 







         There are 5 information technologies and applications in web 2.0 which are XML, AJAX, Tagging, Blogs and Wiki. XML stand for Extensible Markup Language. It contain structured information including pictures and words. AJAX is acronym. It has 2 programming languages, Java Script and XML.  Tagging is about metadata. Every single network or word is called tagging. Blogs is informal website and it used to create diary by using internet. Wiki is to create, edit or delete website. The most popular is Wikipedia. 


Here is our group website, which is we have to present the proposal that we did about hypermarket in lecturer but my group didn't present yet because one of my group mate was sick. Maybe, we have to present on Tuesday next week.



Alhamdulillah, finally I finished my blog and I can breath calmly and be prepare for the final exam. I hope I'll be able to remember what have we learnt in class.
