applet [pronunciation at http://www.bartleby.com/61/95/A0379550.html] - 1. a small computer program that is automatically copied on to a computer when you look at a document that needs this program to enable it to work
2. A small application program written in the Java programming language developed by Sun Microsystems and distributed over the Internet. Applets run on any Java-enabled Web browser regardless of platform (Windows, Macintosh, UNIX, etc.).
3. A program designed to be executed from within another application. Unlike an application, applets cannot be executed directly from the operating system. With the growing popularity of OLE (object linking and embedding), applets are becoming more prevalent. A well-designed applet can be invoked from many different applications.
Web browsers, which are often equipped with Java virtual machines, can interpret applets from Web servers. Because applets are small in files size, cross-platform compatible, and highly secure (can't be used to access users' hard drives), they are ideal for small Internet applications accessible from a browser.
