- Java programs run inside your web browser if you have.
- When Java programs are run inside a browser they are called applets.

ACTIVEX
- It is a technology from Microsoft Corporation allow an internet programmer to create a programme.
- Like Java applets, these controls are downloaded to your computer and run there.
- They can do anything that a normal application can do.
- To run these controls, a browser that supports ActiveX, such as Internet Explorer, is needed.
- One benefit of ActiveX controls is that they are written as components, which means they can be put together, much like building blocks, to build larger and more complex applications.
- When you visit a page with a complex Actix application on it, you may need to download only a small portion of it because you may already have the other components on your computer.
INTERNET PHONE

The building of networks and the establishment of communication protocol have contributed to distributed systems in which computer linked in a network on different Co-operative.
Collaborative computing facilitates the team-based organization through its ability to allow the geographically.
Collaborative computing Environment include at a minimum the following functions ;
i) Facilities to create organised and distribute documents and data-based such as credit card data basis.
ii) E-mail
iii) Developed and application to interface in different Co-operate and other computing systems.
