In today's world, smart cards play an increasingly important role in everyday life. We encounter them as credit cards, loyalty cards, electronic purses, health cards, and as secure tokens for authentication or digital signature. Their small size and the compatibility of their form with the magnetic stripe card make them ideal carriers of personal information such as secret keys, passwords, customization profiles, and medical emergency information. This book provides a guide for the rapid development of smart card applications using Java and the OpenCard Framework. It gives you the basic information you need about smart cards and how they work. It shows in detail how to develop applications that use smart cards by guiding you through examples step by step. A smart card provided with the book will help you to quickly get some first hands-on experience.

Java developers have adapted to a world in which everything is an object, resources are reclaimed by a garbage collector, and multiple inheritance is replaced by interfaces. All of these things have prepared developers to thrive in Microsoft's new .NET environment using C#.

Despite similarities between Java and C#, complex differences still lurk. This book will walk you through both language and library differences, to help you develop enterprise applications requiring mastery. You will then be able to build applications that communicate with databases and include network components, web pages, and many other features.

Ordinarily, Java developers rely on Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) to provide these libraries, and C# developers rely on the .NET Framework. At first glance, there seems little similarity between the two, but author Paul Gibbons shows how a Java developer's J2EE skills transfer smoothly when tackling the .NET Framework.

Early chapters highlight C#'s differences from Java, and discuss differences between the .NET CLR and JVM. Subsequent chapters cover various technologies in which J2EE development translates into .NET enterprise development. These middle chapters also explain .NET technologies that Java developers can begin using immediately. The final chapter examines migration of existing Java applications to C#, and the available tools and techniques. By the end of ."NET Development for Java Programmers," a professional Java developer will be able to tackle a real software project in .NET, using C#.

"XML Programming: Web Applications and Web Services with JSP and ASP" provides a fast-moving introduction to the XML family of technologies for programmers. Although written with a focus upon JSP- and ASP-based XML solutions, the book presents the material from a language-independent point of view that benefits all developers, whatever their language. The code is written to be readable by all.

Chapters 1 through 3 cover the foundations of XML well-formed and valid documents, DTDs and namespacesbut XLink, XPointer, and elements of XSLT are introduced early so the examples can be interesting and useful. Chapters 4 through 6 cover XML processing using SAX, DOM, and XSLT, separately and in various combinations. Each chapter progresses from simple to advanced examples.

Chapter 7 is devoted to the development of a real world project involving the use of various XML technologies to create an information repository. In the context of the project, the authors present RDF and the Dublin Core; revisit XPath, XLink, and XPointer; and show how XML data can live inside a relational database. Chapter 8 introduces the newer validation technologies (RELAX NG and XML Schema), in preparation for the final chapter on Web services. In the concluding chapter, the authors not only explain the specifications, but also build working examples: You're shown, step-by-step, how to convert a software module into a Web service, how to generate a WSDL description from code, how to use WSDL to generate stubs and skeletons for distributed language-independent applications, and how to register such applications with a UDDI repository, either local or on the Internet.

"XML Programming: Web Applications and Web Services with JSP and ASP" is an indispensable resource for programmers who wish to become proficient in XML technologies and use them for solving large-scale, real-life problems.

Das Buch Unternehmensportale Grundlagen, Architekturen, Technologien ist das erste deutschsprachige Grundlagenwerk uber modernes Informations- und Geschaftsprozessmanagement mit Hilfe von Unternehmensportalen.

Das umfassende Kompendium ist Grundlagenwerk, Kochbuch und Wegweiser fur alle fachlich-inhaltlichen, technischen und betriebswirtschaftlichen Aspekte von Unternehmensportalen. Diese ganzheitliche Sichtweise bietet dem Leser einen umfassenden Uberblick und versetzt ihn grundsatzlich in die Lage, die Einfuhrung eines Unternehmensportals fur das eigene Unternehmen zu kalkulieren, zu planen und durchzufuhren sowie den Betrieb des Unternehmensportals zu organisieren. Checklisten und Best Practices geben dabei konkrete Hilfestellungen."

Leitlinie dieser Einfuhrung in die Informatik ist die Frage, welche Vorgehensweisen einem Problem informatische Kontur verleihen und welche Techniken zur Verfugung stehen, um Informatiksysteme analysieren oder entwerfen zu konnen.

Modelle enstehen in der Zusammenschau unterschiedlicher Ansichten eines Systems, die durch pragnante Diagramme beschrieben werden: Entity-Relationship-, Systemstruktur-, Zustandsubergangs- und Sequenzdiagramme. Inharenter Bestandteil dieser grafischen Beschreibungstechniken ist die Charakterisierung der zugrundeliegenden Daten (z.B. in funktionaler Programmierung). Die Autoren verwenden in Ihrem Werk AutoFOCUS zum Diagramm-orientierten Systementwurf, zur Konsistenzprufung und zur Simulation. Sie gehen den Fragen nach, wie sich Diagramme in formale Spezifikationen ubertragen lassen, woher eine Systementwicklung ihre Argumente nimmt, nach welchen Methoden verifiziert wird und wie interaktive Theorembeweiser, wie z.B. Isabelle/HOL, arbeiten."

"J2EE FrontEnd Technologies: A Programmer's Guide to Servlets, JavaServer Pages, and Enterprise JavaBeans" concisely and accurately describes what you need to know about effective enterprise development based on servlets, JSPs, and EJBs. Servlets, JSPs, and EJBs are the most important aspects of Java as it is used in the production of enterprise Web applications today. Lennart Jorelid 's book concentrates on teaching programmers how to fit the various technologies together while spending as little time as possible on "plumbing."

Jorelid discusses servlet development and architecture, and he teaches developers how to integrate servlets into distributed enterprise systems with illustrated examples. He explains the architecture and implementation of JSPsincluding introductory concepts such as using all built-in facilities of the JSP library and advanced topics such as creating your own custom actions using the JSP Tag Library API.

Jorelid also addresses the open-source Struts framework from the Apache Software Foundation, which provides a powerful framework for J2EE Web application development by combining servlets and JSPs. And, finally, Jorelid explores the EJB programming paradigm, covering development and architecture of EJBs and J2EE integration and deployment.

"J2EE FrontEnd Technologies: A Programmer's Guide to Servlets, JavaServer Pages, and Enterprise JavaBeans" provides developers with a unique approach to understanding the profound relationship between servlets, JSPs, and EJBs. Developers will gain a clear understanding of all three and will be able to harness this knowledge for their own real-world applications.

"The .NET Languages: A Quick Translation Guide" answers two questions posed by the introduction of the .NET Framework: "How do I quickly upgrade my skills to this new language?" and "How do I understand the code that another developer has written?"

Author Brian Bischof offers a complete translation guide for converting programs among the three primary Microsoft languages: Visual Basic 6.0, Visual Basic .NET, and C#. Bischof makes it easy for the thousands of Visual Basic 6.0 programmers to take the knowledge they already have and use it to write for the .NET platform.

Each chapter is laid out in a clear and concise format. Most chapters begin with a syntax conversion chart displaying how each language translates into the other languages. Included are detailed points explaining these conversions. Each chapter ends with a fully comprehensive example, written in each language, that demonstrates that particular chapters concepts. This provides you with all the information you need for converting your programs: quick lookup charts, detailed explanations, and thorough examples. Nothing is left out.

Apache Jakarta-Tomcat, the official reference implementation for the Java servlet and JavaServer Pages technologies, has long been heralded as an excellent platform for the development and deployment of powerful Web applications. Version 4.0 offers not only numerous enhancements in flexibility and stability, but also an array of features thatexpand upon the Tomcat developer's already wealthy toolset.

In this namesake title, best-selling author James Goodwill provides readers with a thorough introduction to Jakarta-Tomcat, offering instruction on topics ranging from the basic installation and configuration process and Web application deployment to advanced concepts of integration with other popular Apache Foundation projects such as the Apache Web server, Struts, Log4J, and the Apache XML SOAP Project.

In addition to an already comprehensive introduction to core Tomcat functionality, readers also benefit from a valuable primer of what is offered in version 4.0, as Goodwill takes care to thoroughly discuss new features such as valves, security realms, persistent sessions, and the Tomcat Manager Application. In summary, Apache Jakarta-Tomcat offers both novice and advanced Jakarta-Tomcat users a practical and comprehensive guide to this powerful software.

"Real World ASP.NET: Building a Content Management System" provides web developers with a cost-effective way to develop a content management system within Microsoft's .NET Framework. Unlike other .NET books on ASP.NET that teach technologies on a piecemeal basis, this book explains the underlying technologies and also shows how they are integrated into a complete ASP.NET application suitable for many organizations. Complete source code written in C# and ASP.NET is included, which will enable web developers to create a dynamic content site at a fraction of the cost of a commercial solution. You will learn about the following:

Content management system: This system used to manage the content of a website consists of the content management, metacontent management, and content delivery applications. C# and ASP.NET: These underlying technologies are introduced and then applied extensively. ADO.NET: All aspects relevant to dynamic content management are covered. XML: Extensible Markup Language (XML) is introduced and then applied in the programmatic updating of the config.web file. Authentication, authorization, and encryption: These topics are discussed in the book, especially with regard to protected content and system administration. Personalization: Many key technologies are used to make the CMS solution truly user-friendly.

"Real-World ASP.NET: Building a Content Management System" is the complete hands-on guide to mastering the art of content management systems and website development using the .NET Framework.

"Architecting Web Services" is targeted toward developers and technical architects who have heard about, and even started to work with, Web services. The book starts with a background on the evolution of Web services and their significance to future collaborative efforts via the Internet. It then reveals the architecture for Web services and the various relationships that can be established through their consumption.

Following a short technical primer on XML and related technologies, the Web services model is outlined to illustrate the decisions that have to be made in the areas of presentation, interface, and security before the design is even started. Topics ranging from content to state management to system infrastructures are discussed to help you understand the options and the pitfalls when developing robust Web services.

The life cycle of implementing Web services from start to finish is illustrated, taking existing processes and exposing their functionality through Web services. Examples extend both Java and COM objects as Web services before exposing an entire hotel reservation system through a Web services workflow. These exercises are followed by three application scenarios that consume these Web services, again with both Java and Visual Basic/ASP examples. Discussions cover the design, implementation, and testing of each solution to ensure a successful result.

Finally, the book takes a look ahead at the future of Web services by examining both the current strategies of the primary vendors and the standards initiatives that are presently under way. A companion website provides all the source code, and hosts the Web services and sample applications introduced in the book.

The Collections Framework is supplied with all versions of the Java 2 platform and provides programmers with incredibly efficient ways to manipulate data. However, given the large number of methods and classes in this library, using them correctly is hardly a cakewalk. Well-known columnist and bestselling author John Zukowski gives the Java professional exactly what he or she needs to know about this vital library in order to maximize productivity. This practical book contains comprehensive coverage of the important Collections Framework from the working programmer's point of view, while staying away from academic abstractions.

"Java Collections" leads you through the standard Java support for maintaining abstract groups of data, from the historical collection classes available since the inception of Java time, through the Collections Framework introduced with the Java 2 platform, and on to third-party alternative libraries for times when the standard support isn't enough. If you're working with data in Java programs, you need to understand the Collections Framework. Let Zukowski's "Java Collections" be your guide Table of Contents Java Collections Framework: An Overview Arrays The Vector and Stack Classes The Enumeration Interface The Dictionary, Hashtable, and Properties Classes The BitSet Class Collections Introduction Sets Lists Maps Sorting Special Collections Support Array Algorithm Support Custom Implementations Compatibility Issues Advanced Usages JGL Libraries util.concurrent Colt

Create more robust applications with a test-first approach to JavaScript Reliable JavaScript, How to Code Safely in the World's Most Dangerous Language demonstrates how to create test-driven development for large-scale JavaScript applications that will stand the test of time and stay accurate through long-term use and maintenance. Taking a test-first approach to software architecture, this book walks you through several patterns and practices and explains what they are supposed to do by having you write unit tests. Write the code to pass the unit tests, so you not only develop your technique for structuring large-scale applications, but you also learn how to test your work. You'll come away with hands-on practice that results in code that is correct from the start, and has the test coverage to ensure that it stays correct during subsequent maintenance. All code is provided both in the text and on the web, so you can immediately get started designing more complete, robust applications. JavaScript has graduated from field-validation scripts to full-scale applications, but many developers still approach their work as if they were writing simple scripts. If you're one of those developers, this book is the solution you need to whip your code into shape and create JavaScript applications that work. * Write more concise and elegant code by thinking in JavaScript * Test the implementation and use of common design patterns * Master the use of advanced JavaScript features * Ensure your code's conformance to your organization's standards If you're ready to step up your code and develop more complete software solutions, Reliable JavaScript is your essential resource.
