About the Author

Alain Trottier observes the dot-com warfare of Southern California as a board member for Strategic Business Resources, Inc., an adjunct professor at Vanguard University, technical advisor to Que, and the associate director of Internet Services at Verizon Wireless, the largest U.S. wireless voice and data network, where he is responsible for software engineering standards, architecture, strategy, and implementation. Verizon Wireless is doing very well, partly because of the complex infrastructure and software built and maintained by the strong development team he is privileged to work with. His team services millions of customers online. He has authored Java Core Language (Paraglyph Press), Sun Certification Training Guide (310-080): J2EE Web Component Developer (Que Publishing), and Sun Certification Exam Cram: J2EE Web Component Developer (Que Publishing). When he isn't responding to pagers, cell phones, or email, he likes to spend time with his wife and son, and doesn't mind losing at chess, karate, and racquetball.
