The Android Os.

 The Android OS is an open source operating system

primarily used in mobile devices. Written primarily in Java and based on the
Linux operating system, it was initially developed by Android Inc. and was
eventually purchased by Google in 2005.

The Assembly Language. An Assembly Language is a low-

level programming language designed for a specific type of processor. It may
be produced by compiling source code from a high-level programming
language (such as C/C++) but can also be written from scratch. Assembly code
can be converted to machine code using an assembler.

Blog Website. Short for "Web Log," this term refers to a list of journal
entries posted on a Web page. Anybody who knows how to create and
publish a Web page can publish their own blog. Some Web hosts have made
it even easier by creating an interface where users can simply type a text
entry and hit "publish" to publish their blog.

The C Programming Language. C is one of the most powerful "modern"

programming language, in that it allows direct access to memory and many
"low level" computer operations. C source code is compiled into stand-a-lone
executable programs. C is sometimes criticized because it assumes the
"programmer is always right" and allows many "questionable" programming
practices. It is also a very powerful and widely used language. It is used in
many scientific programming situations. It forms the core of the modern
languages Java and C++. It allows you access to the bare bones of your
computer.

The C Sharp or C#. C# is a programming language developed and launched

by Microsoft in 2001. C# is a simple, modern, and object-oriented language
that provides modern day developers flexibility and features to build software
that will not only work today but will be applicable for years in the future.

The Cable Modem. A cable modem is a hardware device that allows your
computer to communicate with an Internet service provider over a landline
connection. It converts an analog signal to a digital signal for the purpose of
granting access to broadband Internet. A cable modem works by connecting
a coaxial cable and then a Cat 5 (Ethernet) cord from the modem to a computer
or network router..
Chat Room. A chat room is a designated virtual channel where users
communicate with each other through the Internet, traditionally in plain text
only. More recent developments in Web technology now allow the
transmission of images and emoticons in a chat room as well. The term can
mean online chatting, instant messaging and online forums using either
synchronous or asynchronous conferencing. Some chat rooms require a
username and password combination in order to log in or join a conversation,
allowing for privacy among the users.

Chat. A real-time communication via keyboard between two or more users on

a local network (LAN) or over the Internet. Non-verbal, a computer chat is
like sending text messages back and forth. Either characters are transmitted
after each key is pressed, or all the text is sent when the user presses Enter.

Computer Programming Language. A programming language is a set of

commands, instructions, and other syntax use to create a software program.
Languages that programmers use to write code are called "high-level
languages." This code can be compiled into a "low-level language," which is
recognized directly by the computer hardware.

C++ Programming Language. it has object-oriented features, which allow the

programmer to create objects within the code. This makes programming easier,
more efficient, and some would even say, more fun. Because of the power and
flexibility of the language, most software programs today are written in C++.

Database. A database is a data structure that stores organized information.

Most databases contain multiple tables, which may each include several
different fields. For example, a company database may include tables for
products, employees, and financial records. Each of these tables would have
different fields that are relevant to the information stored in the table. Java was
designed to have the look and feel the C++ programming language, but is
simpler to use and enforces an object-oriented programming model. It can be
used to create complete applications that may run on a single computer or be
distributed among servers and clients in a network. It can also be used to
build a small application module or applet for use as part of a webpage.

Dial-up Access. The Dial-Up Access is a form of internet access that uses
the facilities of the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) to establish
a connection to an Internet Service Provider (ISP) by dialing a telephone
number on a conventional telephone line. Dial-up connections use modems to
decode audio signals into data to send to a router or computer, and to encode
signal from the latter two devices to send to another modem.
Domain Name. A domain name is an identification string that defines a realm
of administrative autonomy, authority or control within the Internet. Domain
names are used in various networking contexts and for application-specific
naming and addressing purposes. In general, a domain name identifies
a network domain, or it represents an Internet Protocol (IP) resource, such as a
personal computer used to access the Internet, a server computer hosting
a website, or the web site itself or any other service communicated via the
Internet

Domain Name System (DNS). The domain name system (DNS) is a naming
database in which internet domain names are located and translated into
internet protocol (IP) addresses. The domain name system maps the name
people use to locate a website to the IP address that a computer uses to locate a
website. In short it is the system by which internet domain names and addresses
are tracked and regulated.

High Level Language. A high-level language is a programming

language designed to simplify computer programming. It is "high-level" since
it is several steps removed from the actual code run on a computer's processor.
High-level source code contains easy-to-read syntax that is later converted into
a low-level language, which can be recognized and run by a specific CPU.

Hypertext Preprocessor (PHP). A Hypertext Preprocessor is a extremely

popular scripting lannguage that is used to create dynamic web pages.
Combining syntax from the C, Java annd Perl languages, PHP code is
emmbedded within HTML pages for server size execution. It commonly used
to extract data out of a database on the web server and present it on the Wb
page.

Internet. The Internet is a global wide area network that connects computer

systems across the world. It includes several high-bandwidth data lines that
comprise the Internet "backbone." These lines are connected to major
Internet hubs that distribute data to other locations, such as web
servers and ISPs.

Internet2. The second generation of the Internet, developed by a consortium of

more than 200 universities, private companies and the U.S. government. It was
not developed for commercial use or to replace the Internet, but is the
reincarnation of it, intended primarily for research. Whereas the Internet was
first designed to exchange text, Internet2 is designed for full-motion video and
3D animations.
Interpreter.An interpreter is a computer program that is used to directly
execute program instructions written using one of the many high-level
programming languages. The interpreter transforms the high-level program into
an intermediate language that it then executes, or it could parse the high-level
source code and then performs the commands directly, which is done line by
line or statement by statement.
Java Programming Language. Java is a widely used programming language
expressly designed for use in the distributed environment of the internet. It is
the most popular programming language for Android smartphone applications
and is also among the most favored for the development of edge devices and
the internet of things.

Low Level Language. A Low Level Language is a type of programming

language that contains basic instructions recognized by a
computer. Unlike high-level languages used by software developers, low-level
code is often cryptic and not human-readable. Two common types of low-level
programming languages are assembly language and machine language.

Netiquette. Netiquette is short for "Internet etiquette." Just like etiquette is a

code of polite behavior in society, netiquette is a code of good behavior on
the Internet. This includes several aspects of the Internet, such as email, social
media, online chat, web forums, website comments, multiplayer gaming, and
other types of online communication.

Operating System. An operating system, or "OS," is software that

communicates with the hardware and allows other programs to run. It is
comprised of system software, or the fundamental files your computer needs
to boot up and function. Every desktop computer, tablet, and smartphone
includes an operating system that provides basic functionality for the device.

Program. Program is executable software that runs on a computer. It is similar

to a script, but is often much larger in size and does not require a scripting
engine to run. Instead, a program consists of compiled code that can run
directly from the computer's operating system.

Programmer. A programmer is an individual that writes/creates computer

software or applications by giving the computer specific programming
instructions. Most programmers have a broad computing and coding
background across multiple programming languages and platforms, including
Structured Query Language (SQL), Perl, Extensible Markup Language (XML),
PHP, HTML, C, C++ and Java. A programmer also may specialize in one or
more computing fields, like database, security or software/firmware/ Web
development. These individuals are instrumental to development of computer
technology and the field of computing.
Programming Language. A programming language is a set of commands,
instructions, and other syntax use to create a software program. Languages that
programmers use to write code are called "high-level languages." This code can
be compiled into a "low-level language," which is recognized directly by the
computer hardware.

System Software. Software used to control the computer and develop and run
applications. It includes programs such as operating systems, database
managers, compilers, Web servers, router operating systems and control
programs for other network devices. 

Web Browser. A web browser, or simply "browser," is an application used

to access and view websites. Common web browsers include Microsoft
Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Apple Safari.

Web Community. , is a whose members interact with each other primarily via
the Internet. For many, online communities may feel like home, consisting of a
"family of invisible friends". Those who wish to be a part of an online
community usually have to become a member via a specific site and thereby
gain access to specific content or links. An online community can act as
an information system where members can post, comment on discussions, give
advice or collaborate. Commonly, people communicate through social
networking sites, chat rooms, forums, e-mail lists and discussion boards.

Web Hosting. When a hosting provider allocates space on a web server for a

website to store its files, they are hosting a website. Web hosting makes the files that
comprise a website (code, images, etc.) available for viewing online. Every website
you’ve ever visited is hosted on a server.

Web Page. Web pages are what make up the World Wide Web. These
documents are written in HTML (hypertext markup language) and are
translated by your Web browser. Web pages can either be static or dynamic.
Static pages show the same content each time they are viewed. Dynamic pages
have content that can change each time they are accessed. These pages are
typically written in scripting languages such as PHP, Perl, ASP, or JSP. The
scripts in the pages run functions on the server that return things like the date
and time, and database information. All the information is returned as HTML
code, so when the page gets to your browser, all the browser has to do is
translate the HTML.

Web Publishing. Web publishing, or "online publishing," is the process of

publishing content on the Internet. It includes creating and uploading websites,
updating webpages, and posting blogs online. The published content may
include text, images, videos, and other types of media.

Web Server. A Web server is a computer system that hosts websites. It runs

Web server software, such as Apache or Microsoft IIS, which provides access
to hosted webpages over the Internet. Most Web servers are connected to
the Internet via a high-speed connection, offering OC-3 or faster data
transmission rates. A fast Internet connection allows Web servers to support
multiple connections at one time without slowing down.

Website. A website is a collection of publicly accessible, interlinked Web

pages that share a single domain name. Websites can be created and maintained
by an individual, group, business or organization to serve a variety of purposes.

Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi is a wireless networking technology that allows computers and

other devices to communicate over a wireless signal. It
describes network components that are based on one of the 802.11 standards
developed by the IEEE and adopted by the Wi-Fi Alliance.

Wiki Website. A wiki is a Web site that allows users to add and update content
on the site using their own Web browser. This is made possible by Wiki
software that runs on the Web server.

Wireless Internet Service Provider (WISP). A  wireless Internet service

provider (WISP) is an Internet service provider that allows users to connect to a
server through a wireless connection such as Wi-Fi. WISPs provide additional
services such as virtual private networking VoIP and location-based content.

Wizard. A wizard is a feature that guides the user through the installation or
setup of a software program or hardware device. Unlike a manual or on-line
help, a wizard guides you through the installation one step at a time and
asking a series of questions. A wizard is also a term used to describe an
individual who is very skilled with computers or programming.

Word Processor. A word processor, or word processing program, does

exactly what the name implies. It processes words. It also processes
paragraphs, pages, and entire papers. Some examples of word processing
programs include Microsoft Word, WordPerfect (Windows only),
AppleWorks (Mac only), and OpenOffice.org.

World Wide Web. The World Wide Web commonly referred to as WWW,
W3, or The Web is an interconnected system of public webpages accessible
through the internet. The World Wide Web (WWW) is a network of online
content that is formatted in HTML and accessed via HTTP. The term refers to
all the interlinked HTML pages that can be accessed over the Internet. The
World Wide Web was originally designed in 1991 by Tim Berners-Lee while
he was a contractor at CERN.
