"Today's challenges" need "Today's solutions". The way this applies to real-word, it equally applies to programming world. To create solutions that meet today's expectations, one needs to use a modern language like Java. Learning Java can be challenging for anyone. This is where you would find this book immensely useful. It follows simple and easy narration style. It doesn't assume any programming background. It begins with the basics and steadily builds the pace so that the reader finds it easy to handle complex topics towards the end. Each chapter has been designed to create a deep and lasting impression on reader's mind. Object Oriented Programming has been covered in detail to give a strong foundation for Java programming. Well thought out & fully working example programs and carefully crafted exercises of this book, cover every aspect of Java programming. Some of the highlighting features of this book are: Data types & Control Instructions; Object Oriented Programming; Classes & Objects; Arrays & Strings; Interfaces; Packages; Inheritance & Polymorphism; Exception Handling; Effective I/O; and, Bitwise Operators.

Embedded Systems have become part of our everyday life. They are used in Mobile Phones, Microwave Ovens, Washing Machines, Automobiles, Aeroplanes, etc. Rather than just appreciating their usage, it is much more exciting to learn how to create them. However, learning Embedded Systems without an Embedded Systems board is like learning programming without a compiler. Hence rather then discussing Embedded Systems in general this book shows you how to create working Embedded Systems for a KSET Embedded Systems Development Board. In this book you will learn how to create and burn programs on the KSET Embedded Systems board in the following areas: EEPROM Programming; Programming Censors; Serial Communication; Interactive Embedded Systems; Flash Programming; Blinking LEDs; RTC PROGRAMMING; Interrupts & Timers; Using LCD Display; and, I C Bus Programming.
