Harness the power of design patterns to build CORBA-based applications CORBA Design Patterns provides detailed guidance in the construction of distributed applications based on OMG's CORBA. Founded on a philosophy of designing for change, the design patterns provide essential, proven guidance in lowering the risk of developing software in a distributed environment. The authors introduce you to the essential principles of CORBA and design patterns. They provide a framework for design patterns in software design and show examples for designing OMG IDL interfaces and integrating legacy and Internet applications. On the CD-ROM you'll find: * IDL for all available CORBA and CORBA services * All the source code examples from the book * Animated demonstrations You'll get: * Clear, step-by-step guidance on how to architect real-world designs using the OMG interface definition language (IDL) * A complete design pattern catalog offering expert solutions for designing and building distributed object-oriented systems * Step-by-step examples that demonstrate how to use all the techniques described to build both legacy and Internet applications Visit our Web site at: http://www.wiley.com/compbooks/

"Java Programming with CORBA" - jetzt erscheint der Bestseller in der 3. aktualisierten und erweiterten Auflage. Anerkannte Experten zeigen anhand fortgeschrittener Techniken und Beispielen aus der Praxis, wie man einfache und komplexe Javaprogramme mit CORBA entwirft. Zunächst geben sie einen kurzen Überblick über CORBA, Java, Oject Request Brokers (ORBs) und EJB Komponenten und erläutern dann, wie man diese Technologien einsetzt, um komplette Java-Anwendungen zu entwickeln. Diese Neuauflage wurde um 50% neues Material erweitert, um den Neuerungen der kürzlich erschienenen 3. Version von CORBA Rechnung zu tragen. Topaktuelle Themen, wie z.B. Portabel Object Adaptor (POA), Remote Method Innovation (RMI) over IIOP und EJB werden ausführlich diskutiert. Mit einer Fülle detaillierter Codebeispiele. Der unverzichtbare Leitfaden für jeden Java-Entwickler und -Programmierer.

This revised and enlarged edition of a classic in Old Testament scholarship reflects the most up-to-date research on the prophetic books and offers substantially expanded discussions of important new insight on Isaiah and the other prophets.

Here is the CORBA book that every C++ software engineer has been waiting for. Advanced CORBA® Programming with C++ provides designers and developers with the tools required to understand CORBA technology at the architectural, design, and source code levels. This book offers hands-on explanations for building efficient applications, as well as lucid examples that provide practical advice on avoiding costly mistakes. With this book as a guide, programmers will find the support they need to successfully undertake industrial-strength CORBA development projects. The content is systematically arranged and presented so the book may be used as both a tutorial and a reference. The rich example programs in this definitive text show CORBA developers how to write clearer code that is more maintainable, portable, and efficient. The authors' detailed coverage of the IDL-to-C++ mapping moves beyond the mechanics of the APIs to discuss topics such as potential pitfalls and efficiency. An in-depth presentation of the new Portable Object Adapter (POA) explains how to take advantage of its numerous features to create scalable and high-performance servers. In addition, detailed discussion of advanced topics, such as garbage collection and multithreading, provides developers with the knowledge they need to write commercial applications. Other highlights In-depth coverage of IDL, including common idioms and design trade-offs Complete and detailed explanations of the Life Cycle, Naming, Trading, and Event Services Discussion of IIOP and implementation repositories Insight into the dynamic aspects of CORBA, such as dynamic typing and the new DynAny interfaces Advice on selecting appropriate application architectures and designs Detailed, portable, and vendor-independent source code

Designing application and middleware software to run in concurrent and networked environments is a significant challenge to software developers. The patterns catalogued in this second volume of Pattern-Oriented Software Architectures (POSA) form the basis of a pattern language that addresses issues associated with concurrency and networking. The book presents 17 interrelated patterns ranging from idioms through architectural designs. They cover core elements of building concurrent and network systems: service access and configuration, event handling, synchronization, and concurrency. All patterns present extensive examples and known uses in multiple programming languages, including C++, C, and Java. The book can be used to tackle specific software development problems or read from cover to cover to provide a fundamental understanding of the best practices for constructing concurrent and networked applications and middleware. About the Authors This book has been written by the award winning team responsible for the first POSA volume "A System of Patterns", joined in this volume by Douglas C. Schmidt from University of California, Irvine (UCI), USA. Visit our Web Page

A how-to guide for Java programmers who want to use design patterns when developing real-world enterprise applications This practical book explores the subject of design patterns, or patterns that occur in the design phase of a project's life cycle. With an emphasis on Java for the enterprise, Mark Grand guides Java programmers on how to apply traditional and new patterns when designing a large enterprise application. The author clearly explains how existing patterns work with the new enterprise design patterns and demonstrates through case studies how to use design patterns in the real world. Features include over 50 design patterns, each mapped out by UML, plus an overview of UML 1.4 and how it fits in with the different phases of a project's life cycle.

Software patterns have revolutionized the way developers think about how software is designed, built, and documented, and this unique book offers an in-depth look of what patterns are, what they are not, and how to use them successfully The only book to attempt to develop a comprehensive language that integrates patterns from key literature, it also serves as a reference manual for all pattern-oriented software architecture (POSA) patterns Addresses the question of what a pattern language is and compares various pattern paradigms Developers and programmers operating in an object-oriented environment will find this book to be an invaluable resource
