Here is a article about Java
The way Java works is simple. Unlike ordinary software applications,
which take up megabytes on the hard disk of your PC, Java
applications, or "applets," are little programs that reside on the network in centralized servers. The network delivers them to your machine only when you need them; because the applets are so much smaller than conventional programs, they don't take forever to download.Say you want to check out the sales results from the Southwest region.You'll use your Internet browser to find the corporate intranet website that dishes up financial data and, with a mouse click or two, ask for the numbers. The server will zap you not only the data, but also the sales-analysis applet you need to display it. The numbers will pop up on your screen in a Java spreadsheet, so you can noodle around with them immediately rather than hassle with importing them to your own spreadsheet program.
