45. User interface - is the system by which people (users) interact with a machine. The user
interface includes hardware (physical) and software (logical) components. User
interfaces exist for various systems, and provide a means of: 1) Input, allowing the users
to manipulate a system, and/or 2) Output, allowing the system to indicate the effects of
the users' manipulation.
46. VB.NET – is a redesigned, object-oriented dialect of Visual Basic.
47. Web application - is an application that is accessed over a network such as the Internet
or an intranet. The term may also mean a computer software application that is hosted in
a browser-controlled environment (e.g. a Java applet) or coded in a browser-supported
language (such as JavaScript, combined with a browser-rendered markup language like
HTML) and reliant on a common web browser to render the application executable.
48. Windows Forms - is the name given to the graphical application programming interface
(API) included as a part of Microsoft's .NET Framework, providing access to the native
Microsoft Windows interface elements by wrapping the existing Windows API in
managed code. While it is seen as a replacement for the earlier and more complex C++
based Microsoft Foundation Class Library, it does not offer a paradigm comparable to
model–view–controller.
49. Windows Forms application - is an event-driven application supported by Microsoft's
.NET Framework. Unlike a batch program, it spends most of its time simply waiting for
the user to do something, such as fill in a text box or click a button.
