Java has evolved into a robust, high performance programming language that is well suited to a range of different environments, be it on a middle tier Application Server or a client browser. Regardless of the architecture of your application you are using, it will almost certainly need to make use of data that is stored in some form of database. Relational databases are the data store of choice in the vast majority of businesses, and have also evolved enormously over the recent years, into powerful and feature-rich data management systems. This book aims to teach you how to use these two powerful technologies to build successful Java database applications. You will find out how relational databases work and how you can use them in your Java programs, through the JDBC interface. Topics include: Using the JDBC API to build database-driven Java applications; SQL and relational database design; Object-relational mapping frameworks and techniques.

A second edition Beginning Java title is now required because: In quarter one, 2000, Sun has released version 1.3 of their Java Developers Kit (JDK 1.3). This is significant because: The fastest Java platform performance ever is now available for download, and is coming to your mailbox from America Online (AOL), thanks to an agreement between Sun and AOL to deliver the Java Runtime Environment on the AOL CD-ROM. The newest version of J2SE technology, v 1.3, will deliver momentous performance gains and improved Web deployment for enterprise-grade, client-side applications. And just about everything else developers have been asking for. Client-side users now enjoy the speed advantage of the new Java HotSpot compiler which has been tuned for client performance. The result is much faster thread handling, improved scalability and rapid memory allocation for objects, smaller RAM footprint, and has gained a much more efficient garbage collection.
BlueJ is a Java development environment that runs on top of the Sun Microsystems Java Development Kit making use of the standard compiler and virtual machine. It allows readers to create objects of any class and interact with their methods. For the first time, the traditionally difficult concepts of objects and classes are brought alive in an easily manipulable visual form. This truly "objects first" approach within the customized BlueJ environment will revolutionize the way programming is learned. The book includes a copy of BlueJ. Takes a project driven approach to problem solving, the book is structured along the lines of fundamental development tasks providing readers with clear coverage of the principles of object-oriented programming. Programmers and non programmers who want to learn Java with a state of the art approach and user-friendly programming environment.

An Introduction To Object-Oriented Programming With Java by C. Thomas Wu takes students with no programming background and gets them programming quickly. Wu's object-oriented approach allows students to build their own programs right from the start. Wu's Javabook Package provides students with predefined objects that they can use to build programs right from the beginning, and eventually they learn to create their own objects. Wu uses diagrams extensively in his first edition and has enhanced this aspect of his text in the new edition by use of a second color to improve the pedagogy. Also new to this edition is coverage of vectors in the Arrays chapter. A new website complete with On-Line Learning Center supports the second edition. Some of the features include: Animated PowerPoints, Automated Self-Tests, Handouts on How To Use Popular Compilers, Source Code for the javabook Package, and solutions for instructors.
Didier Besset's Object-Oriented Implementation of Numerical Methods offers a wide-ranging set of objects for common numerical algorithms. Written for the math-literate Java and Smalltalk programmer, this volume demonstrates that both languages can be used to tackle common numerical calculations easily. This title bridges the gap between pure algorithms and object design. By tackling issues like class design, interfaces, and overcoming floating-point rounding errors in both Java and Smalltalk, the code can be used as-is or as a model for your own custom numerical classes. Topics covered include: Introduction to numerical methods and objects in Java and Smalltalk; Numerical precision and rounding errors; Comparing floating-point numbers; Functions in Smalltalk and Java; Evaluating polynomials; The error, gamma, and beta functions; Interpolation algorithms (Lagrange, Newton, Neville, Burlirsch-Stoer, and cubic spline interpolations); and more.
This book introduces readers to Java 1.3, covering all of the language, its standard libraries and utilities, and the prospects it offers for the future. In terms of programming, it covers object-orientation, software design, structured programming, graphical user interfacing, and networking, and finishes with an introduction to algorithms and data structures. The third edition includes many enhancements to its approach, including: the use of a UML-like notation with regard to class diagrams; an improved and simplified introduction to object-oriented concepts (Ch. 2); input/output is expressed through a GUI interface using the Display class (a technique Bishop used in her other book Java Gently for Engineers and Scientists); an introduction to the graphical elements of Swing via a cell phone simulator (Ch. 14); and more in the way of pedagogy and reference material. This book is intended for novice programmers who need to learn the Java language.
