Inspired by the success of their best-selling introductory programming text, Java Software Solutions, authors Lewis, DePasquale, and Chase now release Java Foundations, Third Edition. This text is a comprehensive resource for instructors who want a two-or three-semester introduction to programming textbook that includes detail on data structures topics. Java Foundations introduces a Software Methodology early on and revisits it throughout to ensure students develop sound program development skills from the beginning. Control structures are covered before writing classes, providing a solid foundation of fundamental concepts and sophisticated topics.

With the development of Web 2.0 technologies, the internet has become a huge platform for information and data sharing. As such, web services provide an important foundation for branching technologies in end-user computing and applications. To make online technology more accessible for users, it is important to optimize web services to function properly or offer a personalized experience. Innovative Solutions and Applications of Web Services Technology is a collection of innovative research on the methods and applications of existing technologies for web service usability and accessibility. Highlighting a range of topics including business processes, cyber-physical systems, and recommendation accuracy, this book is ideally designed for IT professionals, researchers, graduate-level students, software developers, academicians, and computer engineers seeking current research on adapting online information and services to user needs.

Is Internet software so different from "ordinary" software? This book practically answers this question through the presentation of a software design method based on the State Chart XML W3C standard along with Java. Web enterprise, Internet-of-Things, and Android applications, in particular, are seamlessly specified and implemented from "executable models." Internet software puts forward the idea of event-driven or reactive programming, as pointed out in Boner et al.'s "Reactive Manifesto" (http://www.reactivemanifesto.org). It tells us that reactiveness is a must. However, beyond concepts, software engineers require effective means with which to put reactive programming into practice. This book's purpose is to outline and explain such means. The lack of professional examples in the literature that illustrate how reactive software should be shaped can be quite frustrating. Therefore, this book helps to fill in that gap by providing in-depth professional case studies that contain comprehensive details and meaningful alternatives. Furthermore, these case studies can be downloaded for further investigation. Internet software requires higher adaptation, at run time in particular. After reading Reactive Internet Programming, the reader therefore will be ready to enter the forthcoming Internet era.

Although the majority of information that is published by the current web is aimed at human consumption, the browsers which contain this information are only able to interpret HTML mark-up to visualize this content. Semantic web intends to address the stability between human and machine. Advancing Information Management through Semantic Web Concepts and Ontologies provides an analysis and introduction on the concept of combining the areas of semantic web and web mining. Emphasizing semantics in technologies, reasoning, content searching and social media, this book aims to be an essential source for practitioners, researchers and academics alike.

When deployed as infrastructure components of real-time business processes, service computing applications we rely on for our daily activities elicit the proper addressing of performance and dependability issues. While recent developments in service-oriented architectures have come a long way in many aspects, ranging from semantics and ontologies to frameworks and design processes, performance and dependability remains a research demanding field. Performance and Dependability in Service Computing: Concepts, Techniques and Research Directions highlights current technological trends and related research issues in dedicated chapters without restricting their scope. This book focuses on performance and dependability issues associated with service computing and these two complementary aspects, which include concerns of quality of service (QoS), real-time constraints, security, reliability and other important requirements when it comes to integrating services into real-world business processes and critical applications.

As Web service technologies have matured in recent years, an increasing number of geospatial Web services designed to deal with spatial information over the network have emerged. Geospatial Web Services: Advances in Information Interoperability provides relevant theoretical frameworks and the latest empirical research findings and applications in the area. This book highlights the strategic role of geospatial Web services in a distributed heterogeneous environment and the life cycle of geospatial Web services for building interoperable geospatial applications.

This comprehensive Guide to Web Development with Java introduces the readers to the three-tiered, Model-View-Controller architecture by using Spring JPA, JSPs, and Spring MVC controllers. These three technologies use Java, so that a student with a background in programming will be able to master them with ease, with the end result of being able to create web applications that use MVC, validate user input,and save data to a database. Topics and features: * Presents web development topics in an accessible, easy-to-follow style, focusing on core information first, and allowing the reader to gain basic understanding before moving forwards * Contains many helpful pedagogical tools for students and lecturers, such as questions and exercises at the end of each chapter, detailed illustrations, chapter summaries, and a glossary * Uses existing powerful technologies that are freely available on the web to speed up web development, such as Spring Boot, Spring MVC, Spring JPA, Hibernate, JSP, JSTL, and Java 1.8 * Discusses HTML, HTML forms, and Cascading Style Sheets * Starts with the simplest technology for web development (JSP) and gradually introduces the reader to more complex topics * Introduces core technologies from the outset, such as the Model-View-Controller architecture * Includes examples for accessing common web services * Provides supplementary examples and tutorials

For college-level Computer Science courses in Python Basic Programming and Problem Solving in Python As one of the most widely used programming languages in the software industry, Python is desirable to both learn and teach. Introduction to Programming Using Python is designed for students eager to learn about the world of programming. Applicable to a range of skill levels, this First Edition textbook provides students with the tools to harness the powerful syntax of Python and understand how to develop computer programs. The compactly written text leverages highly focused chapters, diving deep into the most significant topics to give students an in-depth (rather than superficial) understanding of the language.
