    Java Web Start is kind of like a successor to applets – it allows Java programs to be run from your browser (though unlike applets, they don’t run within the browser). For a practical example, see the TopCoder Arena.

    http://www.topcoder.com/contest/arena/ContestAppletProd.jnlp

    Here, Java Network Launching Protocol (JNLP) is the protocol that defines how a Web Start application should be run (analogous to HTML telling a browser how a page should be rendered).

    See the Oracle tutorials:
