Capability Description Projects
Swing Interactive application graphical user interface layout, input processing, event monitoring
HTML generation Programmatic production of web pages as a response to a browser request or as a scheduled event.
Numerical calculations and analysis Applying numerical formulas to basic data to create new value added data
XML Parsing XML files to extract data or creating XML files from stored data; use of SAX or DOM
Servlet Creation of HTML or XML pages using a J2EE server in response to application or browser requests
Screen scraping Data collection from publically available Internet sites by reading the HTML file, and pulling relevant data from its position in the file by its relative position from a distinctive pattern
Data Visualization A technique of inspecting data that exploits the fact that the human brain is able to very quickly recognize visual patterns or outliers in expected patterns. This extreme parallel processing capability allows the brain to analyze large quantities of information that complements the computer's greater serial capabilities and its ability to organize large quanties of data into coherent sets
JDBC Relational database access; SQL programming
EJB Enterprise Java Beans for client/server access to a remote database.
Threads Enabling programs to run more quickly by putting similar tasks in parallel threads while protecting shared code and data from concurrent access and deadlock
Fine grained screen painting Dynamically drawing detailed images to display data
On line user help Embedding programming instructions inside the application
Data indexing Use of metadata to locate bulky data externally on the Internet instead of collecting and storing data internally
Text parsing and translation "Reading" text to translate prose into logical states.
JavaScript Use of HTML script code to modify the content of the page and provide dynamic effects to the page.
