History In the 1990s, most web sites were based on complete HTML pages; each user action required that the page be re-loaded from the server (or a new page loaded). This process is inefficient, as reflected by the user experience: all page content disappears then reappears, etc.

Layer interaction in service-oriented Architecture In software engineering , a Service-Oriented Architecture ( SOA ) is a set of principles and methodologies for designing and developing software in the form of interoperable services . These services are well-defined business functionalities that are built as software components (discrete pieces of code and/or data structures ) that can be reused for different purposes. SOA design principles are used during the phases of systems development and integration . SOA generally provides a way for consumers of services, such as web-based applications, to be aware of available SOA-based services. For example, several disparate departments within a company may develop and deploy SOA services in different implementation languages; their respective clients will benefit from a well-understood, well-defined interface to access them.

Web service
The W3C defines a "Web service" as "a software system designed to support interoperable machine-to-machine interaction over a network ". It has an interface described in a machine-processable format (specifically Web Services Description Language, known by the acronym WSDL ). Other systems interact with the Web service in a manner prescribed by its description using SOAP messages, typically conveyed using HTTP with an XML serialization in conjunction with other Web-related standards." [ 1 ] The W3C also states, "We can identify two major classes of Web services, REST -compliant Web services, in which the primary purpose of the service is to manipulate XML representations of Web resources using a uniform set of "stateless" operations; and arbitrary Web services, in which the service may expose an arbitrary set of operations."

Adobe Flash manipulates vector and raster graphics to provide animation of text, drawings, and still images. It supports bidirectional streaming of audio and video, and it can capture user input via mouse, keyboard, microphone, and camera. Flash contains an object-oriented language called ActionScript and supports automation via the JavaScript Flash language (JSFL).
