- Java applet
- A small program written in the Java programming language that can be included on an HTML page, much in the same way an image is included. When someone uses a Java-enabled browser to view a page that contains an applet, the applet's code is transferred to that user's system and executed by the browser's Java virtual machine (JVM). For example, if you access a Web page that shows a virtual stock ticker streaming by with live data, that might be enabled by a Java applet.
