Week 10: ASP vs PHP

Summarize the difference between ASP and PHP in a from of table such as following:



ASP
(Activity server pages)


VERSUS

PHP
(Hypertext preprocessor)

ASP requires
- initial cost
- ongoing cost
for maintenance and debugging,.
- ASP libraries will come with a price tag.

Terms of Price
PHP is free.
ASP developers is limited
Developer community
-PHP developers have contributed to a variety of open source projects.

-PHP has a fairly large developer community that is active in reporting bugs and creating additional PHP libraries.

MS-SQL that  is a product of Microsoft

Database Connectivity

-Uses MySQL

ASP can only work with
-Window based platforms.

Platform compatibility

PHP programs can also run in  
-Windows, Solaris, Unix and Linux

ASA uses
-Visual Basic as base language and limited to some product of Windows.



Base Language

PHP uses
- C/C++ as base language and most syntax.

To connect to database, the users ASP
--need to purchase MS-SQL, which is a Microsoft product.



Costs

To connect to databases of which the most commonly used is the MySQL. Note that MySQL
- would not cost a thing to use.


ASP
-uses an overhead server
- and is uses a COM based architecture,
so ASP runs slowly.



Speed

PHP
-codes runs much quickly, it runs in
-own memory space



THE NUMBERS

The following charts and benchmarks are taken from WrenSoft and quite simply show the difference. This first graph shows the time taken to generate and display results for a search a small website.





As you can see, the average time for the php site: 0.1500 seconds, the time for Asp.Net: 0.0150 seconds... that is a HUGE difference, the php search takes 10 times as long! The next one does the same with a larger site, and the results are not much different.

Week 8: Group Assignment 1: By Fatemeh


I turn in the last part of the assignment that it related to my section, and another parts of this assignment turn in by my partners of our group, they are Zune and Faridanura.

Flash Video offers technological and creative benefits that let us fuse video together with data, graphics, sound, and interactive control. Flash Video lets us easily put video on a web page in a format that almost anyone can view.

I make an effort to mention as following procedure:

CREATING AND PUBLISHING FLASH VIDEO

We can incorporate video into Flash in the following ways:
1- Streaming video content: Import video clips stored locally into your Flash documents, and later upload them to the server, to more easily assemble and develop Flash content.
2-Progressively downloading video from a web server: If don’t have access to Flash Media Server or FVSS, you can still download video from an external source when you use progressive downloading.
3-Importing embedded video: An embedded video file becomes part of the Flash document. When you load FLV files dynamically, adjust the dimensions of the movie clip to match the actual dimension of the FLV and scale the video by scaling the movie clip.


To import an FLV file into the Library, do one of the following:
Select File > Import > Import To Library.

Select any existing video clip in the Library panel, and select Properties from the Library Panel menu. Click Import. Locate the file to import, and click Open.
4-Importing video in QuickTime format: format Import video clips in QuickTime format as a Flash documents that contain linked QuickTime video must be published in QuickTime format.
5-Importing FLV files in the Library: Library Import video clips in Flash Video (FLV) format from Adobe directly into Flash. When you import FLV files, you use the encoding options already applied to the files.
6- Controlling video playback in the Timeline: To control video playback, write custom ActionScript.
