ISSN 2394-7314 International Journal of Novel Research in Computer Science and Software Engineering Vol. 3, Issue 1, pp: (62-81), Month: January-April 2016, Available at: www.noveltyjournals.com What Makes A Webpage the Most Effective, Attractive and Useful Business Tool? Zobair Ullah Sam Higginbottom Institute of Agriculture, Technology & Sciences, Allahabad, India Abstract: This paper is intended to describe and discuss the major developments of a website design and internet that makes a website much more attractive, useful, an effective business tool and much more powerful than ever before. The paper is basically designed and prepared for the aspiring web designers and developers with a need to understand the HTML as well as website design in enough detail. Keywords: SGML, HTML, CSS, Javascript, JQuery, XML, PHP, SQL, ASP, ASP. Net, AJAX, JQuery Mobile, App ML, Angular JS, Json, HTML Graphics, Open source, web browser, web server, homepage, website, web pages, URL, domain name, hyperlink, hypertext, www, internet, intranet, HTTP, SSL, TLS, firewall, browser plug-ins, spyware and adware, Active X, DNS, IP address, dynamic IP address, static IP address, Flash, Javascript, Java, secure site, caching, proxy server, the top level domains, search engine, world wide web accessibility, HTML templates, blog, RSS, Gopher, MME types, phishing, bookmarks and favourites. 1. INTRODUCTION The HTML is a simple mark up language used to create hypertext documents that are platform independent. Here, platform independent means HTML documents work in the same way on different platforms and browsers. Historically, HTML documents are SGML documents with generic semantics that are appropriate for representing information from a wide range of domains. -

Automating Web Navigation with the Webvcr
Automating Web Navigation with the WebVCR Vinod Anupam, Juliana Freire, Bharat Kumar, Daniel Lieuwen Bell Laboratories, 600 Mountain Ave., Murray Hill, NJ 07974, USA anupam,juliana,bharat,lieuwen ¡ @research.bell-labs.com Abstract Recent developments in Web technology such as the inclusion of scripting languages, frames, and the growth of dynamic content, have made the process of retrieving Web con- tent more complicated, and sometimes tedious. For example, Web browsers do not provide a method for a user to bookmark a frame-based Web site once the user navigates within the initial frameset. Also, some sites, such as travel sites and online classifieds, require users to go through a sequence of steps and fill out a sequence of forms in order to access their data. Using the bookmark facilities implemented in all popular browsers, often it is not possible to create a shortcut to access such data, and these steps must be manually repeated every time the data is needed. However, hard-to-reach pages are often the best candidates for a shortcut, because significantly more effort is required to reach them than to reach a standard page with a well-defined URL. The WebVCR system addresses this problem by letting users record and replay a series of browsing steps in smart bookmarks— shortcuts to Web content that require multiple steps to be retrieved. It provides a VCR-style interface to transparently record and replay users’ actions. Creating and updating smart bookmarks is a simple process involving only the usual browsing actions and requiring no programming by the user. In addition to sav- ing users time by providing shortcuts to hard-to-reach Web content, smart bookmarks can be used as building blocks for many interesting Web applications and new e-commerce services. -
1 Introduction
User Customization of Virtual Network Interfaces with U-Net/SLE David Opp enheimer and Matt Welsh fdavidopp,[email protected] Decemb er 9, 1997 Abstract We describ e U-Net/SLE Safe Language Extensions, a user-level network interface architecture which enables p er-application customization of communication semantics through downloading of user extension applets, imple- mented as Java class les, into the network interface. This architecture p ermits application s to safely sp ecify co de to b e executed within the NI on message transmission and reception. By leveraging the existing U-Net mo del, applications may implement proto col co de at the user level, within the NI, or using some combination of the two. Our current implementation, using the Myricom Myrinet interface and a small Java Virtual Machine subset, obtains go o d p erformance, allowing host communication overhead to b e reduced and improving the overlap of communication and computation during proto col pro cessing. 1 Intro duction Recentwork in high-sp eed interconnects for distributed and parallel computing architectures, particularly workstation clusters, has fo cused on developmentofnetwork interfaces enabling low-latency and high-bandwidth communication. Often, these systems bypass the op erating system kernel to achieve high p erformance; however the features and functionality provided by these di erent systems vary widely. Several systems, such as U-Net [26] and Active Messages [27], virtualize the network interface to provide multiple applications on the same host with direct, protected network access. Other systems, including Fast Messages [16] and BIP [17], eschew sharing the network in lieu of design simplicity and high p erformance. -

A Survey of Software Infrastructures and Frameworks for Ubiquitous Computing
Mobile Information Systems 1 (2005) 41–80 41 IOS Press A survey of software infrastructures and frameworks for ubiquitous computing Christoph Endresa, Andreas Butzb and Asa MacWilliamsc aGerman Research Center for Artificial Intelligence, DFKI GmbH, Germany E-mail: [email protected] bMunich University, Germany E-mail: butz@ifi.lmu.de cTechnical University of Munich, Germany E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. In this survey, we discuss 29 software infrastructures and frameworks which support the construction of distributed interactive systems. They range from small projects with one implemented prototype to large scale research efforts, and they come from the fields of Augmented Reality (AR), Intelligent Environments, and Distributed Mobile Systems. In their own way, they can all be used to implement various aspects of the ubiquitous computing vision as described by Mark Weiser [60]. This survey is meant as a starting point for new projects, in order to choose an existing infrastructure for reuse, or to get an overview before designing a new one. It tries to provide a systematic, relatively broad (and necessarily not very deep) overview, while pointing to relevant literature for in-depth study of the systems discussed. 1. Introduction With the widespread availability of mobile computing devices, such as PDAs and smart phones as well as pervasive networks, such as GSM or WLAN, our attitude towards computing is changing rapidly. Computers have moved from our basements to our desks over the last three decades and they will move on from there into many parts of our daily environments. They will be connected to each other and equipped with extended sensing capabilities, making them reactive to their context of use. -
