Java was conceived in 1991 at Sun Micro-systems by:
James Gosling
Patrick Naughton
Ed Frank
Chris Warth
Mike Sheridan
Java was initially called as OAK, it was renamed Java in 1995. Much of the characteristics of Java is inherited from C and C++. Java derives its syntax from C & Object Oriented features from C++.
Originally, the aim of developing Java was to develop a platform independent language that could be used to create softwares to be embedded in various consumer electronic devices. At about the same tme world-wide-web (internet) came into existence & was facing the problem of portability. This realization caused focus on Java to switch from consumer electronics to internet programming. Thus environmental change that prompted Java was the read from platform independent programs destined for distribution on the Internet.
