Success of HTML5

Success of HTML5

Presentation of User Interface (UI) is developed using HTML and HTML is executed by browser which is a client. This browser has a layout engine which processes HTML and executes the code. Its important to know that HTML is not executed on server side which is a web server. HTML enhances the User Experience on browser. HTML technology can be used in browsers and non-browser systems as well (eBook, Help , E-mail etc). Its a rich internet application technology.
Examples of HTML usage online is:
  • Flip-kart
  • snap-deal
  • gaana.com and many more.
These sites heavily rely on HTML.


Web applications using HTML on client side:
  • Google - search engine
  • Facebook - social media
  • You tube - videos
  • Times of India - news
  • Yahoo - search engine
  • Bing - search engine
  • Apple - for phones
  • Flip kart - Business to Customer (B2C)
Offline use of HTML:
  • Mainly in representation of document formats in  help application or system.
  • msdn integrated with Visual studio is a form of Offline complied HTML.
  • java documentation integrated with Eclipse
  • Windows help which is available on windows Operating system (OS).
  • MS office documentations.
HTML also used in eBook formats:
  •  Popular eBook is Amazon Kindle  which has extension of .azw3 (latest one). 
  • CHM is a complied HTML used in help books.
  • Other popular format is MOBI.
HTML also used in Emails. So emails heavily rely on HTML, since  email has to be opened in a browser (chrome / Firefox etc) on client side i.e emails use HTML to display rich text. 

HTML5 Features:
  • Its based on Open standards.
  • Not a proprietary technology.
  • Doesn't require any plugins.
  • Supported by all major browsers (Chrome, IE, Opera, safari, Firefox).
  • Provides capability for new widgets called as Web Forms (date, color, email, search etc widgets).
  • Canvas - Can develop Animations, Graphic application
  • Multimedia - YouTube streams video on browser using HTML 5.
  • Geo-location - can identify longitude and latitude to provide location based services.
  • Web-storage - Perform persistence at client site and develop parallel and threaded applications using web workers.
  • Web Socket- can develop connected applications.
  • It has enhanced support for drag and drop.
  • Search engine optimizations (SEO).
  • Its not restricted to main stream devices, can use in play station, smart TV, Sony reader, kindle, IOS, Android , windows.
  • HTML frameworks are Bootstrap, Toolkit, Foundation, motor framework etc. By using this applications can be developed quickly.

Introduction to Machine Learning – ML

Machine Learning – ML ML is one of the hot buzz word now, let me explain what it is and why it is? In traditional programming, we feed data and program to a computer to get output, but in Machine learning, we feed data and output to a system to generate algorithm or programming for that data to find a pattern. So that we can forecast the results of new set data by applying the pattern which has found on existing data. This is a simple definition to understand ML concept. ML gives computer systems the ability to learn the data, without being programmed explicitly. Day to day growing internet traffic makes human thinking and analysis of data to limited. To do this we need a machine which can analyze the huge data and find a pattern on that data. This is what machine learning does. It is a continuously developing field.  Example: Facial recognition technology allows social media platforms to help users tag and share photos of friends.  Python  if a popular language fo...

Anatomy of embedded Linux system

Linus Torvalds released 1st version of Linux kernel in 1991.  Much lower used as desktops and mainly used for embedded applications. In embedded systems, Linux has been ported to many architectures including ARM. It’s an open software, and some pros of open source software - reduces software costs, full control of source code, wide usage of components can improve quality, easy to evaluate new software. In the anatomy of embedded Linux system, these 4 items are very important - Tool chain, Boot loader, Kernel and File system. This is the basic diagram- we have 2 main components Host and Target.  Tool chain indicates the tools and software required for developing software on the target platform. Example compiler, Binutils, C library, debugger, kernel headers etc.  If we have to debug kernel headers, serial debugger can be used. If CPU wants to be debugged,  JTAG debugging tool must be used.  Please refer below image.  Binutils is a coll...

Introduction to Modelling and Simulation

What is about Today?    Modeling & simulation is use of the physical, mathematical or logical representation of a system , entity or process and these models  reduces the development time and cost of the system and it optimizes the design.  Simulation is the imitation of the real-world process or system. To simulate something, it requires a model to be developed, and these model represents the key characteristics, behaviors and functions of the selected system or process.Modelling an act of building a model and Simulation is act of using a model. Simulation software is based on the process of modeling a real phenomenon with a set of mathematical formulas.  Advantages: Allows to understand how the system operates in real-time system in virtual environment. Easy to make changes in to the system and their effect on the output. Can determine the system requirements by applying different configurations. Performing bottleneck analysi...
