Bluetooth For Java

Book Description

March 26, 2003 1590590783 978-1590590782 1
Bluetooth is a technology for wireless communication that functions in much the same way that home/office laptops connect to the Internet. It is typically used for short burst communications instead of a continuous connection. Because of this difference, Bluetooth is more typically found supported in wireless phones and personal devices.
Bluetooth for Java is not an overview of Bluetooth. In the book, Bruce Hopkins and Ranjith Antony describe how to develop wireless Java applications using Bluetooth for a variety of platforms. This includes an API overview of the Java library, development of Bluetooth-based services, highlights of security concerns, and walkthroughs for development with some of the different tools available. Programs will not be just J2ME (micro devices)-based, but will also be for J2SE (client/desktop).

About the Author

Ranjith Antony earned his bachelor's degree in computer engineering from the College of Engineering, Chengannur, Kerala, India, an institute affiliated with Cochin University of Science and Technology. He became a lecturer in the Department of Computer Engineering of the Government Model Engineering College. In June 1998, he joined Atinav as a software engineer. Presently, he is working as a senior technical manager and is managing the Bluetooth-related Java products from Atinav.

Bruce Hopkins is a 6-year Java veteran with experience in distributed computing and wireless networking. He has an electrical and computer engineering degree from Wayne State University in Detroit and has interest in robotics, microcomputing, and electronics. He has worked in Java since JDK 1.0a, and his research studies include distributed computing, clustering, encryption, and pervasive computing. He currently works as an independent consultant in the Detroit area.

Wireless Java: Developing with J2ME (2nd Edition)

Book Description

March 5, 2003 1590590775 978-1590590775 2nd
Although Java is incredibly popular, the standard edition of Java is way too big and bulky to build applications for wireless devices such as PDAs and phones. Thus, Sun has released Java 2 Platform, Micro Edition (J2ME). J2ME has the potential to be as revolutionary in the wireless space as Java has been in the server space.
Wireless Java: Developing with J2ME, Second Edition is updated to include coverage of the next version of programs for mobile Java devices. MIDP 2.0 contains many exciting new features, such as sound HTTPS support, lots of user interface API enhancements, a Game API, and much more. Also, author Jonathan Knudsen makes clear what material is new, so readers can still use the book for MIDP 1.0/CLDC 1.0.

About the Author

Jonathan Knudsen is a Java developer and noted author of several books, including Wireless Java: Developing with J2ME, Second Edition, Mobile Java, The Unofficial Guide to LEGO MINDSTORMS Robots, Learning Java, and Java 2D Graphics. Jonathan began his object-oriented programming career in Objective-C on the NeXT OS, soon thereafter suffering through a couple of purgatorial years in Microsoft's Visual C++, before graduating to Java in 1996. He has written extensively about Java and LEGO robots, including five books, a monthly online column called "Bite-Size Java," and articles for JavaWorld, EXE, NZZ Folio, and the O'Reilly Network. Jonathan holds a degree in mechanical engineering from Princeton University. You can find him at www.jonathanknudsen.com.

Ajax on Java

Book Description

March 1, 2007 0596101872 978-0596101879 1
This practical guide shows you how to make your Java web applications more responsive and dynamic by incorporating new Ajaxian features, including suggestion lists, drag-and-drop, and more. Java developers can choose between many different ways of incorporating Ajax, from building JavaScript into your applications "by hand" to using the new Google Web Toolkit (GWT).
Ajax on Java starts with an introduction to Ajax, showing you how to write some basic applications that use client-side JavaScript to request information from a Java servlet and display it without doing a full page reload. It also presents several strategies for communicating between the client and the server, including sending raw data, and using XML or JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) for sending more complex collections of data.
The book then branches out into different approaches for incorporating Ajax, which include:
  • The Prototype and script.aculo.us Javascript libraries, the Dojo and Rico libraries, and DWR
  • Integrating Ajax into Java ServerPages (JSP) applications
  • Using Ajax with Struts
  • Integrating Ajax into Java ServerFaces (JSF) applications
  • Using Google's GWT, which offers a pure Java approach to developing web applications: your client-side components are written in Java, and compiled into HTML and JavaScript

About the Author

Steven Olson has been a software developer for 20 years, starting in 1984 with ForTran, Pascal, Basic, and, later, C at a company called Signetics. In 1991, he went to work for Novell, writing C. He began dabbling in Java, and in 1995 was one of the first to join the Java development group at Novell. Since then, he has consulted or worked directly for eight other companies writing primarily in Java. Currently, he works for logoworks.com, where his programming adventures continue.

Ajax gives web developers the ability to build applications that are more interactive, more dynamic, more exciting and enjoyable for your users. If you're a Java developer and haven't tried Ajax, but would like to get started, this book is essential. Your users will be grateful.

Design Patterns Java™ Workbook

Book Description

April 4, 2002 0201743973 978-0201743975 1
This new workbook complements the classic Design Patterns, giving Java developers hands-on experience in transforming pattern concepts into working designs and code. Steven John Metsker presents nearly 90 practical pattern exercises, encompassing all 23 patterns first introduced in Design Patterns, and others that have since been identified. Metsker organizes Java design patterns by five categories of "intent": interfaces, responsibility, construction, operations, and extensions. Each section of the book focuses on one category, identifying the relevant challenges facing Java developers, and showing how specific patterns can be used to solve problems that recur in Java development and cannot easily be solved without their use. A Solutions chapter provides Metsker's detailed solutions to each problem, including -- where necessary -- UML diagrams. The accompanying CD-ROM contains all code from the book, plus additional bonus code not included in the book. For all Java developers who want to use patterns to improve their software.
