COURSE DESCRIPTION:

This course is designed for programmers already familiar with the Java language and class libraries. Java-related topics include a broad and in depth coverage of the following areas:

· Advanced Java language features (e.g., threads, exception handling and assertions), and upcoming (“Tiger” 1.5) new features (e.g., generics).

· Java tools (e.g., JPDA, Javadoc, Java Help, ECPerf, JavaCC, Ant, JUnit, Cactus), Java IDEs (e.g., Eclipse, NetBeans, Sun ONE Studio, JBuilder, Visual Age for Java, VisualCafé, Codewarrior for Java, WebGain Studio, ModelJ, J2ME Wireless Toolkit) and mainstream software engineering techniques (e.g., Model Driven Architectures, Agile Modeling, Extreme Programming, Aspect-Oriented Programming, Refactoring, CMM and Business Process Improvement Lifecycles, Team Software Process, Project Management, Environments Setup, Resources Selection, and Packaging).

· J2SE core technologies and optional packages (e.g., JFC, Swing, Collections Framework, Drag and Drop, JavaBeans, JNI, JMF), and Java Generative Programming Technology.

· Distributed enterprise communications via J2EE (e.g., Java IDL, CORBA, RMI/IIOP, JAF, JNDI, JMS, JTA/JTS, security via JAAS/JCE/JSSE).

· Enterprise Web and application enabling (e.g., Java Web Start, servlets, JSPs, Java Server Faces, Jakarta Struts, EJBs, J2EE Connector Architecture, Java XML Pack, JAXB), Web Services Developer Pack, EAI/B2Bi, J2ME CLDC and CDC technology, J2EE implementations (e.g., JBOSS, Sun ONE Application Server, BEA WebLogic, WebSphere), and related blueprints programs.

· Database technologies (e.g., JDBC, Java Data Objects, SQLJ, EJB-QL, Jakarta-OJB).

· Operating systems and networking technologies (e.g., Java Hotspot VM, Jini, JXTA, Jiro, Java agents, JMI, JavaSpaces, JMX).

Students will experiment with various Java tools and technologies to create Java programs on various platforms. All instruction and development will be based on the J2SE 1.4.1, J2EE 1.4, and J2ME CLDC/CDC 1.0. Through a set of assignments and projects, students will implement the various components of a sample web-enabled and Java-based enterprise application.
