With Java maturing and branching out into so many different APIs, programmers are finding it difficult to find good, solid coverage of the many new need-to-know APIs in the numerous "catch all" Java books on the market. This title answers that need by presenting no-nonsense, nuts-and-bolts coverage of the new "niche" APIs like JNI, JTAPI, and the Java Wallet in a task-oriented reference format that gives coders the answers they need.

Langr, a veteran software developer, has compiled the definitive guide for writing readable, maintainable Java code. The text features detailed patterns and "best practices" code for the challenges every Java developer faces, the ideal reference for team-based development and covers behavior, state, collections, classes, and formatting with both JDK 2 and JDK 1.1.

This handbook delivers a complete and practice-oriented overview of the fundamentals of today's telecommunications networks and the future prospects for next generation networks (NGN). The very clear and concise text is supplemented by many colour illustrations and embedded into a functional four-colour layout.

If you want an up-to-date, in-depth understanding of next generation intelligent networks (IN), this book is essential reading. It provides you with a comprehensive survey of current and emerging intelligent telecommunications networks, including underlying software, implementation, deployment and standards. It assesses the influence of mobile networks and IP technology on the directions that IN is taking now, and looks at the way middleware is reducing the dependence of service logic on the underlying network protocols. Moreover, it discusses the role of IN in tomorrow's network. Next Generation Intelligent Networks investigates how service creation is taking on board state-of-the-art distributed object-oriented programming techniques. The book focuses on emerging software architectures for programming and deploying value-added services, and proposes a vision of value-added services in the network of the future. Learn how new initiatives such as Soft switches, JAIN, Parlay, OSA, TINA and CAMEL help you to more effectively handle the new challenges brought on by the rapid growth of cellular mobile networks and the Internet.

Since the publication of the first edition, the CTI world has changed significantly. Where it was once focused on the integration of voice systems with computers, the focus is now on IP-based voice, or converged networks and services. Today, the telcos are upgrading their systems from circuit-switched to IP-based packet-switched networks. Companies
