Word: Adobe Flash
Definition:
Is a multimedia and software platform used for
creating vector graphics, animation, games and rich
Internet applications (RIAs) that can be viewed, played and executed
in Adobe Flash Player. Flash is frequently used to serve streaming
media, advertisement and interactive multimedia content on web
pages and Flash-enabled software. However, in recent years, the usage of
Flash on websites has declined.
Flash manipulates vector and raster graphics to provide
animation of text, drawings, and still images. It allows bidirectional streaming
of audio and video, and it can capture mouse, keyboard, microphone and camera
input. Interactive Flash animations are created using
the object-oriented language called ActionScript. Flash content
can be developed using an IDE such Adobe Flash Professional.
Adobe's attempt to foster open source Flash development appears to
have been abandoned.
Adobe Flash Player makes Flash contents accessible
on Windows, OS X and Linux,
some smartphones and tablets, and a few other electronic
devices using Flash Lite. It is available free of charge for web
browsers as a plug-in. Flash-enabled computer programs can be created
with the Adobe AIR framework.
