This subject introduces students to the specifics of the World Wide Web and internet-based programming. The evolution of the internet and its technical foundation is studied, as well as basic techniques for presenting data, text and pictures on the World Wide Web. The client/server paradigm is explored in detail, featuring website design and construction using HTML (hypertext markup language), CSS (cascading style sheets), PHP (hypertext preprocessor), MySQL (backend database), javascript, java, java servlets and java server pages. The subject also introduces the concept of concurrent programming. In the course, students learn how to use threading in java to design advanced graphical user interfaces. This subject also introduces some existing tools that can be used for website design and administration. It provides a sound basis for understanding how the WWW functions, how to construct webpages and how to write software for the WWW using scripting techniques and the java programming language.
