Abstract
With the increasing usage of high-speed internet technologies during the past few years, the concept of cloud computing has become more popular. A growing number of organizations are adding to the cloud concept by releasing Web-based operation system. The Web Desktop goes beyond basic desktop functionality because it does not only include the basic desktop functionality but also across platforms from any device with internet access. Currently, some available Web Desktops, like EyeOS, DesktopTwo, or G.ho.st, are based on Flash, Ajax, PHP, or JavaScript. The way to develop Web Desktop application is also limited among these languages. The objective of this thesis is to release the restriction for Java programmers and bring the power of Java technology into the Web Desktop. As a result, we develop a Java-based Web Desktop platform called MojoDesktop provides specifications for programmer to develop an application on it. Moreover, we also use the bytecode editing technique to port existing swing program to this platform. We hope this platform can encourage more Java programmer to develop interesting application on Web Desktop.
