`
`
`Apple Desktop Interface (ADI) A set of user irrregfice guide-
`lines, developed by Apple Computer and published by Addison-
`Wesley, intended to ensure that the appearance and operation of
`all rwacintosh applications are similar.
`
`
`
`Apple File Exchange A utility program provided with each
`Macintosh computer that allows Macs equipped with suitable
`floppy disk drives to exchange data with IBM PC—compatible
`computers.
`
`App1eShare A file server‘ utility for Appleiolle networks.
`AppleShare transforms any Macintosh on the network into a
`dedicated file server; the server's hard disk icon appears on every
`network user's desktop.
`
`1. A s1nal.l— to nieclium—sized computer program that
`applet
`provides a specific fiinction, such as emulating a calculator. 2. In
`java, :1 n1ini—program embedded in a Web document that, when
`
`downloaded, is executed by the browser. Both of the leading
`browsers (Netscape Communicator and Microsoft Internet
`
`Explorer) can execute java applets. See java applet and java
`application.
`
`AppleTalk A local area nerworle (LAN) standard developed by
`Apple Computer. AppleTalk can link as many as 32 riiacfnrosli
`computers, IBM PC-CfJ!J1paIll)l€ computers, and peripherals such as
`laser primers. Every Macintosh computer has an AppleTalk port;
`the only hardware required for an AppleTalk network is a set of
`Locoliolk connectors and ordinary telephone wire for cables
`(called twisted-pair cable). AppleTalk networks are simple and
`inexpensive but quite slow—capable of transmitting only up to
`230 ieiiobits per second compared to Erirerliilk, which is capable
`of speeds of up to 10 million hits per second (bps).
`
`application A program that enables you to do something usen
`fill with the computer, such as writing or accounting (as opposed
`to urr'l:'ties, programs that help you maintain the computer}.
`
`Application Configuration Access Protocol (ACAP) A
`proposed Ir-oer:-ret standard that transfers crucial user configuration
`settings {including address books, bookrnories, and options choices) to
`an Internet—accessible file. Because these settings are stored on
`the network instead of the user’s computer, they are accessible
`no matter which computer is being used. ACAP will greatly
`benefit anyone who accesses the Internet from more than one
`computer.

`
`java application Ajava program that, unlike ajrwa applet,
`
`executes in its own window and possesses full access to the com.
`puter’s file system.’I‘o run ajava application, the. user’s computer

`_]avaBean A rcrrscrlilc rnbjctt, created witlijrwa and in conformity
`to Sun’s 100% lhrejaurr specifications, that is packaged according
`to the javalieans specifications.Ajavalzlean differs from a java
`applet in that it has persistence {it remains on the user’s system after
`execution).Additionally, Beans are capable of conimunicating and
` exchanging data with other _lavaBeans by means of r'm‘erproress
`tomimmimrion. in this sense ajavafiean is similar to an /lti‘fi2cX
`control, but with a very important exception: unlike ActiveX
`controls, which execute only on computers that support
`Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) at the openrring system
`level, a _]avaBean will execute on any computer platform that is
`capable of running a java interpreter. Users will find that Beans
`seamlessly add functionality to Beans-aware applications, while
`developers can quickly create applications by combining Bean
`comporlents.
