Javascript Web worker

Web worker is a powerful concept in javascript, which is used to improving performance of applications and it is running as Asynchronously.

A web worker is a JavaScript that runs in the background, independently of other scripts, without affecting the performance of the page.

Usages for real-time:
If you are doing the complex operation in DOM, sometimes you feel like browser freezing or non functional.
Such case you can use Web workers

Coding:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<p>Count numbers: <output id="result"></output></p>
<button onclick="startWorker()">Start Worker</button>
<button onclick="stopWorker()">Stop Worker</button>

<p><strong>Note:</strong> Internet Explorer 9 and earlier versions do not support Web Workers.</p>

<script>
var w;

function startWorker() {
if(typeof(Worker) !== "undefined") {
if(typeof(w) == "undefined") {
w = new Worker("demo_workers.js");
// you can add operational code in demo_workers.js

}
w.onmessage = function(event) {
document.getElementById("result").innerHTML = event.data;
};
} else {
document.getElementById("result").innerHTML = "Sorry, your browser does not support Web Workers...";
}
}

function stopWorker() {
w.terminate();
w = undefined;
}
</script>

</body>
</html>


Note: sending and receiving data in the form of string only.
Once you get string you can parse do the opetations

Applications of Insulating Materials

All electrical systems require some kind of insulation to prevent short circuits and leaking currents. 3 forms of insulators: solid, liquid and gaseous Performance of these insulators depend on the temperature Classification according to their temperature rating. Impregnation: Letting the solid material absorb some liquid With the advent of new materials, the classification has been modified by International Electrotechnical Commission: The transformer insulation: (a) conductor or turn-to-turn insulation, (b) coil-to-coil insulation, (c) low voltage coil-to-earth insulation, (d) high voltage coil-to-low voltage coil insulation, and (e) high voltage coil-to-ground insulation. Transformer oil -- provides the required dielectric strength and insulation -- cools the transformer by circulating itself through the core and the coil structure. -- should be in the liquid state over the complete operating range of temperatures between -40°C and+50°C. -- gets o...
