Web Server


Web Server
A Web Server can be defined as software that enables computer to deliver web pages written in html to client machine. Capabilities provided by a web server are:
1.       Security services
2.       FTP(File Transfer Protocol)
3.       Data capturing(Logs are maintained in web server)
1 Web server plays two roles static and dynamic.
1.       Static : A static web page is one that has been written once, like a word processing document, and then saved onto the web server. Static pages are created using tools like HTML, JavaScript, CSS and images. 
2.       Dynamic : A dynamic web page is created on the fly. It doesn’t actually exist on the web server until a web browser requests it. When a request is made, web server runs whatever program will create the web page. That program creates the page dynamically and returns it to the web server, which then passes it along to the web browser.
Eg: Xamp server is required for PHP
a)      First php page is retrieved
b)      Decode the page
c)       Convert output to simple html

Application Server
A web application server can be defined as software programs that provide specific business functionality required by a website. The objective is to isolate the business applications from the detail of display of pages. They can be defined as middleware software that provides ability to connect traditional cooperate system to customer as well as providing functionality to conduct e-commerce.

Big-M Method and Two-Phase Method

Big-M Method The Big-M method of handling instances with artificial  variables is the “commonsense approach”. Essentially, the notion is to make the artificial variables, through their coefficients in the objective function, so costly or unprofitable that any feasible solution to the real problem would be preferred, unless the original instance possessed no feasible solutions at all. But this means that we need to assign, in the objective function, coefficients to the artificial variables that are either very small (maximization problem) or very large (minimization problem); whatever this value,let us call it Big M . In fact, this notion is an old trick in optimization in general; we  simply associate a penalty value with variables that we do not want to be part of an ultimate solution(unless such an outcome is unavoidable). Indeed, the penalty is so costly that unless any of the  respective variables' inclusion is warranted algorithmically, such variables will never be p
