small, medium or large, without modification. It
has been promoted for and geared heavily to the
Web, both for public web sites and Intranets.
When a Java programme runs from a web page,
it is called a "Java applet." When it is run on a

MMS (Multimedia Message Service)
A message service for the mobile environment,
standardized by the WAP Forum and the 3rd
Generation Partnership Program (3GPP). For
phone users, MMS is similar to Short Message
Service (SMS) - it provides automatic, immediate
delivery of user-created content from phone to
phone. The message addressing used is primarily
phone numbers, thus the traffic goes from phone
to phone. MMS also provides support for e-mail
addressing, so that messages can also be sent by
e-mail. In addition to the text content of SMS,
MMS messages can contain still images, voice or
audio clips, and later also video clips and
presentation information.
