Q

name 4 subsets of the java standard edition and there capabilities

A
  • Embedded version of java - This is aimed at the internet of things and offers web-based interfaces and a database facility (java DB)
  • Java card - A version of java that runs on smart cards such as sim cards. It offers encryption and running applications in small JVMs which are isolated from other applications
  • Micro edition (ME) - Used for programming on mobile phones but has been mostly superseded by android which also uses java
  • Java for televisons and set top boxes - This version can be used to create electronic program guides, games, menus, and access data over the internet

Q

what are the two editions of the
Java development kit (JDK)

A
  • Java Enterprise Edition, known as Java EE. The word ‘Enterprise’ refers to large, distributed programming environments. This is the Java used on the server side.
  • Java Standard Edition, known as Java SE. This is used on the client side.

Q
  • Platform independence – Java is a language that is run on a JVM on each device. Compiled Java code can be ported from one JVM to another.
  • Familiarity – the syntax of the language is based on C and C++, two other widely used languages.
  • Robustness – Java was designed to incorporate strong syntax checks, and to avoid the main causes of failure in C and C++.
  • Security – the JVM incorporates a secure runtime environment, which is important in anetworkedcontext.
  • Object-orientation – the object-oriented approach fits well with networks, where clients and servers interact by sending communications to each other.

Q

describe the difference between public and private Java runtime environments

A

java runtime environments (JRE) are public meaning that they will by default run any java code
java development kits include a private JRE meaning that it will only run java code when we ask it to do so

Q

describe the structure of an
object-oriented program

A
  • made up of objects that can hold there own data and know how to process that data
  • objects can share information between each other

Q

what is the advantage of using bytcode and a virtual machine

A

by using these the bytcode can be ran on any type of machine as long that machine has the correct virtual machine installed on it

the advantage is that no changes are required in either the source or bytecode when porting to different machines

Q

give three sidenotes concerning java versions and editions

A
  • Java 1.0 was released in 1996 and is used on both client and server side
  • The java standard edition is updated every six months usually just bug fixes and new libraries nothing code breaking
  • Java 8 was the last update that had significant changes

A

a layer of software that mimics a computer.

35
Q

compiler

A

translates entire source code to either machine code or bytecode

36
Q
  • Memory management
  • Process scheduling
  • Communicating with peripherals
  • Provide a user interface
  • Provide APIs so that applications and programs an access features of the OS

name 5 roles that are carried out by the operating system

37
Q

what are three methods for

executing bytecode

A

this includes
* interpretation - an interpreter can be included in the virtual machine that can interpret the code at runtime
* static compilation - the virtual machine can translate all code to machine code before the program is then executed using the machine code
* dynamic / just-in-time (JIT) compilation - this mixture of interpretation and static comilation includes interpreting at run time but at the same time saving the machine code any subsequent executions then use the saved machine code
