2) What is the difference between application and an Applet?

An applet is a program written in the Java programming language that can

be included in an HTML page, much in the same way an image is included.
An application is a standalone Java program that runs as a true application,
outside of a browser. Both require a JVM (Java Virtual Machine).
The applet can be surrounded with HTML tags. It is performed on the Java compatible
platform . It is performed under strict regulations and has several limitations as
compared to applications. It doesnt have main() method and starts with init() and
stopped
via
stop()
or
destroy().
On the other hand Application has main(). It has no special HTML support. It can be
run wherever you save it as java.exe file. Applications dont have restrictions and strict
rules. It is a small program which can run on a single machine as well as several
machines.

3) Describe the semantic handling events in an Application as well as an Applet.

4) Describe the event handling process in GUI Application. With figure.
5) How to convert an Application to an applet explain with the help of example.
6) Describe the process of Drawing in a window using the co-ordinate systems in a component.
Explain with different examples like circle, rectangle etc.
7) Describe the basic components used in the GUI programming in JAVA.

8) Explain the life cycle of an Applet. Describe in Detail.

10) Describe the components and containers by showing the hierarchy and also explain the
attributes.

Differentiate between preemptive and non preemptive scheduling of processes.
http://careerride.com/OS-preemptive-scheduling.aspx
http://www.slideshare.net/punj25/final-18087303
The difference between 'Preemptive' and 'Non-preemptive scheduling', is that Nonpreemptive Scheduling occupies full control of the CPU whereas Preemptive Scheduling
allows the computer's Operating System, (OS), control over the states of processes.
