Description:

Java generally refers to the Java Programming Language, the Java Virtual Machine, and the Java Platform. The Java technology allows software, designed and written for a virtual machine, to run and execute like a real machine. This includes PCs with Windows, Macintosh, and Unix systems.

The application java.exe is the process that gives functionality to Java technology. It is the core component of the Java Programming Language originally developed by Sun Microsystems, Inc. The Java language derives much of its syntax from C and C++. It has fewer low-level facilities and a simpler object model. Java applications run on any Java Virtual Machine (JVM) through the java.exe process, regardless of their computer architecture.

The java.exe program started as a programming tool in a small, secret effort called the Green Tea Project, planning for the next wave in computing. They concluded that a significant trend would be the convergence of digitally controlled consumer devices and computers. Just in time for its public introduction in 1995, the Java technology was incorporated into Netscape Navigator browser.

Today, the java.exe application can be found in most networks and devices such as supercomputers, laptops, and cell phones as well as home game players, credit cards, etc. It can also be used to create small programs, commonly known as applets, to be embedded in web pages. Unlike standard software, these applets created by the java.exe program cannot access or delete your personal files unless given permission. Java also allows you to play online games, view images in 3D, and chat with people around the world.

The program java.exe is usually included as standard installation on Windows operating systems, though not always. The java.exe program has been thoroughly refined, tested, extended, and proven by over five million software developers. This surprisingly versatile technology became invaluable to these developers in writing software on one platform and running it on other platform, creating programs to run within web browsers, and developing server-side applications for HTML forms processing, polls, stores, and many more.
