Käyttöjärjestelmissä Applen pahin kilpailija Microsoft on saavuttanut markkina-asemansa lisensoimalla käyttöjärjestelmänsä kenelle tahansa, Apple sen sijaan on sitonut käyttöjärjestelmänsä tiukasti itse valmistamiinsa tieto- koneisiin. Muun muassa tämän takia Applen markkinaosuus henkilökohtaisista tie- tokoneista on pysynyt matalana viimeiset 20 vuotta. Pienestä markkinaosuudestaan huolimatta sen tuotteet ovat aina herättäneet huomiota. Apple on käyttöjärjestel- missään esitellyt monia mullistavia teknologioita.

  • Web Browser a C-Class Article from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Web browser A C-class article from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A web browser or Internet browser is a software application for retrieving, presenting, and traversing information resources on the World Wide Web. An information resource is identified by a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) and may be a web page, image, video, or other piece of content.[1] Hyperlinks present in resources enable users to easily navigate their browsers to related resources. Although browsers are primarily intended to access the World Wide Web, they can also be used to access information provided by Web servers in private networks or files in file systems. Some browsers can also be used to save information resources to file systems. Contents 1 History 2 Function 3 Features 3.1 User interface 3.2 Privacy and security 3.3 Standards support 4 See also 5 References 6 External links History Main article: History of the web browser The history of the Web browser dates back in to the late 1980s, when a variety of technologies laid the foundation for the first Web browser, WorldWideWeb, by Tim Berners-Lee in 1991. That browser brought together a variety of existing and new software and hardware technologies. Ted Nelson and Douglas Engelbart developed the concept of hypertext long before Berners-Lee and CERN. It became the core of the World Wide Web. Berners-Lee does acknowledge Engelbart's contribution. The introduction of the NCSA Mosaic Web browser in 1993 – one of the first graphical Web browsers – led to an explosion in Web use. Marc Andreessen, the leader of the Mosaic team at NCSA, soon started his own company, named Netscape, and released the Mosaic-influenced Netscape Navigator in 1994, which quickly became the world's most popular browser, accounting for 90% of all Web use at its peak (see usage share of web browsers).

  • COM 1000 - Beginning HTML 3 Credit Hours
    COM 1000 - Beginning HTML 3 Credit Hours Course Description: This is a beginning course in HTML, providing instruction in web page creation. The topics studided include using HTML tags to format headings and text, to display images, and to create lists, links, tables, frames, and forms. Course Objectives: To equip students to edit basic HTML code and preview web pages To familiarize students with vocabulary used in the Web Design industry To help prepare students for an entry-level job as a Web Technician This class is designed to teach you HTML coding so that you will be able to code pages using only a text editor, or to fix broken code when you later learn to use a WYSIWYG web page application (like Front Page or DreamWeaver, etc.). For that reason you will not be allowed to use a WYSIWYG web page application when creating projects for this class. You will be required instead to use either a text editor (such as SimpleText for the Macintosh, or Notepad or WordPad for the PC) or a non-WYSIWYG HTML editor such as BBedit or PageSpinner, etc. Prerequisites and Corequisites: Basic computing and keyboarding skills. Course Topics: Creating, previewing and printing HTML documents Formatting text and creating lists with HTML tags Inserting graphic images, image maps and background images Creating forms with data entry fields, radio buttons and pull-down menus Creating tables with HTML tags Using framesets or structuring tables to control page layout Design issues affecting accessibility and usability An introduction to incorporating scripts in web pages Specific Course Requirements: Students should know how to complete basic computer tasks such as creating, naming and saving files to specific folders.
