Java Applets at Other Web Sites (Beta)
This page lists WWW sites
(other than ours)
that have Java(tm) applets that conform to the Beta API.
You will be able to view them in the Netscape Navigator(tm) 2.0 browser.
You can also view these applets
with the Applet Viewer,
a tool that is distributed in the
JDK release.
To run one of these applets with the Applet Viewer,
just specify the URL with the appletviewer
command, like this:
appletviewer http://www.intrepid.com/~robertl/option-pricer3.html
Note:
To find applets that the 1.0 Alpha 3 HotJava(tm) browser can run,
see our list of Alpha applets.
This page is split into sections:
Within each section, links are sorted from newest to oldest.
The most recent additions are marked by the
symbol.
Note:
We're no longer adding to this page --
it's gotten too hard to keep up with the volume of requests!
See the Gamelan website
to find more applets.
We've converted some of the applet contest entries
to the new applet API.
See the Applet Programming Contest Results
for more information about the applet contest.
- Pythagoras' Haven:
applets/contest/Pythagoras/index.html
- An animated graphical proof of the famous theorem.

This applet takes a while to load completely.
First Prize.
- Chernobyl Reactor:
applets/contest/NuclearPlant/index.html
- Don't try this at home!
This applet lets you control a nuclear power plant.
Excellent use of animation, audio, images, and graphics.
It is really nice that you can actually avoid a meltdown
by correctly operating the various valves and pumps.

- KV Diagram and Logic Minimization Demo:
http://tech-www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/applets/kvd/index.html
- Creates or lets you edit a random logic function,
and displays the KV diagram for the function.
You can draw KV loops to combine terms and
minimize the logic needed to realize the function.
- Learn to Dance:

(slow waltz, tango, slow fox, foxtrot)
in real time with audio.
The link above is to the English version.
There's also a
German
one.
- CMOS Gate Demonstration:
http://tech-www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/fun/javademo/cmosdemo/cmosdemo.html
- Beta and alpha applets that demonstrate CMOS basic and complex gates --
inverter, NAND, NOR, etc.
(The applets require a color display.)
The link above is to the English version.
There's also a
German one.
- Telemedicine:
http://www.acl.lanl.gov/~rdaniel/classesJDK/PickTest2.html
