This book is an introduction to NeWS: the Networked, Extensible, Window System from Sun Microsystems. It is oriented towards people who have a basic knowledge of programming and window systems who would like to understand more about window systems in general and NeWS in particular. A significant portion of the book is devoted to an overview and history of window systems. While there is enough detail here to allow readers to write simple NeWS applications, the NeWS Reference Manual [SUN87a] should be consulted for a more complete treatment. This book was written to refer to the NeWS 1. 1 product, available from Sun and also available from several non-Sun suppliers. Shortly after this book is ...
This is a step-by-step guide to successful wireless application design and development with Sun's Java 2 Micro Edition platform. Authored by one of Sun's leading wireless application consultants, it covers every key feature of the J2ME platform, and every step of the process -- from architecture through deployment. Piroumian begins by introducing the J2ME computing platform, key terminology, basic concepts, and application development process. Next, you'll walk through creating, compiling, preparing, executing, and debugging J2ME applications. One step at a time, you'll master J2ME MIDP platform's high-level and low-level APIs, user interface components, persistent storage mechanisms, and services for networking and distributed processing. The book teaches how to build applications from the ground up, using running examples. All topics are introduced in a logical order where each concept builds upon the ones that precede it. Piroumian also covers architecture and its impact on the developer; and introduces key elements of a complete wireless solution, including gateways, Internet portal interfaces, and wireless application interfaces.
foreword by Ralph E. Johnson and drawings by Duane Bibby 'This is a book of 'why' not 'how.' If you are interested in the nature of computation and curious about the very idea behind object orientation, this book is for you. This book will engage your brain (if not your tummy). Through its sparkling interactive style, you will learn about three essential OO concepts: interfaces, visitors, and factories. A refreshing change from the 'yet another Java book' phenomenon. Every serious Java programmer should own a copy.' -- Gary McGraw, Ph.D., Research Scientist at Reliable Software Technologies and coauthor of Java Security Java is a new object-oriented programming language that was developed by...
The example-rich guide to J2ME for experienced Java developers, this volume covers everything developers need to get started with J2ME and achieve powerful results. Includes over 50 well-designed examples--all clearly commented, and thoroughly explained.
In a business where great risks, huge fortunes, and even bigger egos are common, Larry Ellison stands out as one of the most outspoken, driven, and daring leaders of the software industry. The company he cofounded and runs, Oracle, is the number one business software company: perhaps even more than Microsoft's, Oracle's products are essential to today's networked world. But Oracle is as controversial as it is influential, as feared as it is revered, thanks in large part to Larry Ellison. Though Oracle is one of the world's most valuable and profitable companies, Ellison is not afraid to suddenly change course and reinvent Oracle in the pursuit of new and ever more ambitious goals. Softwar ex...
