JavaScripts uses a hierarchical structure that applies to the objects in a document. There are some objects that show the relationship of one object to another using the language.

Window object: This is the topmost object in the hierarchy. It represent the content area of browser window that consists of HTML documents. Each frame is also a window that has some actions inside it.

Document object: This object gets loaded in a window and consists of objects of different kind in the model. It consists of the content that will be written in the script.

Form object: Form objects are used for more interaction with the users. It represents the form elements inside <FORM>...</FORM> tag.

XML, Extensible Markup Language, is an open, text based markup language that provides structural and semantic information to data. XML is a metalanguage that can be used to create other language. It is used to structure and describe data that can be understood by other applications. Using XML, we can separate the user interface from data.

Features of XML :

- XML is a generalized markup language that means one can define his/her own tag sets.

- A valid XML document contains rules and is self-describing.

- The rules that are found in DTD allow the documents to be validated.

The JVM performs three main tasks:

• Loads code

• Verifies code

• Executes code

- SVG is the abbreviation for Scalable Vector Graphics and is recommended by W3C. 

- It is used to define vector-based graphics for the Web

- The graphics are defined in XML format

-An important quality of SVG graphics is that their quality is maintained even when they are zoomed or resized. 

- All the element and attributes of SVG files can be animated

With HTML5, it is possible for the web pages to store the data locally in the user's browser. This web storage is much faster and secured than the cookies. Also, a larger amount of data can be stored without causing any adverse effect to the performance of the website. 

The data here is not included with every server request. It is used ONLY when it is asked for. It is only that particular web page that can access the data stored by itself.

- The Dictionary class is an abstract class.

- Classes like Hashtable which map keys to values inherit from this class. 

- An object can be looked for if a dictionary and a key is provided.

- Any non-null object can be used as a key and as a value.

The status of an activity can be start and stop only. The start means the activity is up and running. It is in execution state and performing some actions. Whereas the stop state defines that the activity is being stopped and performing no action on the system. To see or check the status of an activity there is a command that has to be used like NEW_TASK_LAUNCH flag that keeps the track of all the activities that are running and the main command under which the flag resides is given as startActivity() call. To bring the activity stack in front of the process that is already running require the command mentioned above to be used. The activity can be started remotely by using the remote services. These services allow easy interaction with the client and provide the sample to show it on the local server.

Service oriented architecture (SOA) is an architectural style that supports service oriented methodology that is being added in the cloud architecture as a mandatory component. Cloud architecture support the use of on-demand access to resources and it provides lots of other facilities that are being found in SOA as well. SOA makes these requirements optional to use. But, to get the full functionality and more performance based efficiency there is a requirement for the mixture of SOA and cloud architecture.
