The MOST likely explanation for the use of applets in an Internet application is that:
A.
it is sent over the network from the server.
Acceptance testing is to be managed by users.
B.
the server does not run the program and the output is not sent over the network.
Since JAVA virtual machine (JVM) is embedded in most web browsers, the applet download
through the web browser runs on the client machine from the web browser, not from the web server,
making choice D incorrect.
QUESTION 499
A company has contracted with an external consulting firm to implement a commercial financial
system to replace its existing system developed in-house. in reviewing the proposed development
approach, which of the following would be of GREATESTconcern?
A quality plan is not part of the contracted deliverables.
C.
they improve the performance of the web server and network.
Not all business functions will be available on initial implementation.
D.
it is a JAVA program downloaded through the web browser and executed by the web server of the
client machine.
Prototyping is being used to confirm that the system meets business requirements.
B.
the server does not run the program and the output is not sent over the network.

Explanation:
An applet is a JAVA program that is sent over the network from the web server, through a web
browser and to the client machine; the code is then run on the machine. Since the server does not
run the program and the output is not sent over the network, the performance on the web server
and network-over which the server and client are connected-drastically improves through the use
of applets. Performance improvement is more important than the reasons offered in choices A andA quality plan is an essential element of all projects. It is critical that the contracted supplier be
required to produce such a plan. The quality plan for the proposed development contract should
be comprehensive and encompass all phases of the development and include which business
functions will be included and when. Acceptance is normally managed by the user area, since they
must be satisfied that the new system will meet their requirements. If the system is large, a phased-in approach to implementing the application is a reasonable approach. Prototyping is a valid
method of ensuring that the system will meet business requirements.
