  "definition": "A Java(TM) servlet is a Java(TM) program that runs within the context of a server, analogous to a Java(TM) applet that runs within the context of a Web browser. Servlets are easy to implement since they take advantage of the support provided by the Java-enabled Web Server (e.g. parsing HTTP requests, handling connections to Web clients). They are also efficient since they run as separate light weight threads of the Java-enabled Web Server process rather than as separate heavy weight processes (e.g. CGI programs). For more information on Java Servlets refer to the Agency's Java(TM) Servlet Documentation (http://intranet.epa.gov/java/).",
