| Building Scalable and High-Performance Java™ Web Applications Using J2EE™ Technology provides the concise roadmap Java developers and Web engineers need to build high-performance and scalable enterprise Web applications. It is unique in its focus on building efficient end-to-end solutions based on the widely adopted J2EE specification. Each of the relevant technologies is summarized and analyzed in terms of its scalability and performance implications. Special attention is also given to those parts of Web application design that extend beyond the J2EE specification, including strategies for efficient networking and database design.
Packed with general system architecture tips and balanced with succinct examples for each technology, this book allows you to focus on practical strategies for effective application design without getting overwhelmed with useless detail. As a result, you will quickly and easily be able to understand how to use J2EE technologies to build application systems that deliver scalability and high performance.
Coverage includes:
- Essentials of Web application architecture
- The J2EE standard
- General techniques for building scalable and high-performance systems
- The HTTP protocol, with special focus on features that maximize performance
- Java™ Servlets and JavaServer Pages™ (JSP)
- Enterprise JavaBeans™ (EJB)
- Java™ Message Service (JMS)
- Effective database design techniques
- Efficient database management with JDBC™ and SQL
- Essentials of Web Services, including XML, SOAP, WSDL, and UDDI

 Immunochemical Protocols (Methods in Molecular Biology)
Immunochemical techniques have been in use for many years with early examples of bacterial strain typing dating back to the 1940s. The basis for the science is the exquisite elegance of the mammalian immune system with its ability to recognize foreign proteins and to manufacture antibody m- ecules that strongly bind to the substances that... | | The Scanning WorkshopThe other day, I was talking to someone about this book, and he asked me, “Why are scanners so cheap? Is there some sort of catch?” (He’s my accountant, so he’s paid to ask skeptical questions about money.) The answer is no, there is no catch. Heck, with some scanner models, you don’t even need a computer! Desktop... | | Professional XML Development with Apache Tools : Xerces, Xalan, FOP, Cocoon, Axis, XindiceIf you’re a Java Programmer working with XML, you probably already use some of the tools developed by the Apache Software Foundation.
