cgi-bin: The most common directory to store CGI programs on a web server. The "bin" part of "cgi-bin" is an abbreviation of "binary", dating back to when programs were referred to as "binaries".
DNS: (Domain Name Server) - A computer running a program that converts domain names into IP addresses and vice versa. Domain Name Servers (also known as Name Servers) are the backbone of the Internet.

Using small Java programs ("applets"), Web pages can include features such as animations, calculators and other fancy or interactive tricks.
JDK: (Java Development Kit) - A software development package from Sun Microsystems containing the basic tools needed to write, test, and debug Java applications and applets.
