Glossary:
| Browser/Client: | Web browsers are also known as clients. The two most common are Internet Explorer and Firefox. |
| Java plug-in: | Browsers/clients use a Java plug-in to run Java applets. The plug-in is also known as the JRE, Java Runtime Environment, or Java Runtime Engine. |
| Java applet: | Small Java programs linked into web pages. A web page loads in the browser, then an applet runs on the client machine and the browser displays the output. |
| Java SDK: | Web servers use a Java SDK to run Java programs at the server. The SDK, or software development kit is also known as the JDK or J2SDK. |
| Java versions: | Java version numbers come in multiple forms: Java 5uN or 1.5.0_n is Java 5 update N, a subset of Java 5. Java 6uN or 1.6.0_n is Java 6 update N, a subset of Java 6. Java 5 and Java 6 are subsets of the Java 2 platform. |
| J2SE: | J2SE and Java SE refer to the Standard Edition, which is adequate for SDS VitalSigns products. J2EE means Enterprise Edition, a larger package than necessary for SDS products. |
