Chappell, David: Understanding .NET: A Tutorial and Analysis
Book Number: 46011
Addison-Wesley Professional 2002 8vo softcover 348pp index, b/w illus. very good, owner's signature on fep. From Library JournalnGuides to Microsoft's .NET technologies abound (see Computer Media, LJ 4/1/01), but most focus on only one piece of the colossus. Chappell's book is different because it offers a lucid overview of every aspect of .NET. Intended for developers and technology managers but accessible to lay readers, it describes how existing languages and technologies (such as ASP) are transformed in the .NET environment and explains the reasoning behind creating new languages such as C#. Touchy topics like the privacy issues created by .NET My Services and .NET's seeming similarity to Java are also squarely addressed. Highly recommended for all libraries.nCopyright 2002 Cahners Business Information, Inc. nnProduct DescriptionnThis book offers the deep, conceptual grounding in .NET technology every developer and technical manager needs to evaluate and work with Microsoft's platform for building next-generation Windows applications and Web services. Drawing on the live .NET seminars he has taught worldwide, leading consultant and author David Chappell shares powerful independent insights into every facet of .NET: its goals, components, tools, languages, standards compliance, and much more. Chappell starts with a high-level overview of everything that's encompassed in the .NET "brand," from Web services to the .NET framework, the Visual Studio.NET development environment to the .NET Enterprise Servers. Then, one element at a time, he introduces the essence of each .NET technology, including the Common Language Runtime (CLR), CLR-based languages such as C# and Visual Basic.NET, the XML-based Web Services Description Language, Microsoft's new unified class library, ASP.NET's support for building and deploying Web services, and ADO.NET's powerful new tools for data access. For every Windows developer, and for every Web or enterprise developer and technical manager evaluating .NET technology.

Dudney, Bill: J2EE AntiPatterns
Book Number: 46012
Wiley 2003 8vo softcover 602pp index, b/w illus. very good. Product Descriptionn�"The flip-side of Patterns, AntiPatterns provide developers with formal descriptions of common development gaffes that can derail a project along with practical guidelines on how to avoid them. In this book, the authors present dozens of Java AntiPatterns that tackle many of Java's biggest trouble spots for programming with EJB, JSP, Servlets, and more. Each AntiPattern is documented with real-world examples, code, and refactored (or escape-route) solutions, and the book uses UML (where appropriate) to diagram improved solutions. All code examples from the book are available to the reader on the book's companion Web site." nnFrom the Back Covern"The insights in this book are based on proven solutions from experts. They will ensure the success of your J2EE implementations."n-Bill Brown, AntiPattern Evangelist nnAll too often delivered software is full of bugs and poorly performing processes. Unfortunately, uncovering exactly what has gone wrong and what needs to be done to correct it can be a difficult process. Focusing on J2EE, this innovative book will give you the tools you'll need to recognize and correct AntiPatterns-bad habits of code and design. The authors explore the common mistakes that are made while developing J2EE applications and clearly show you how to refactor your way out of them. nnThey first capture the AntiPatterns in a template that simply describes their symptoms and consequences as well as their typical causes. Then they guide you through the process of transforming the implementation of code to make the design better. nnFor each AntiPattern, the authors present you with real-world examples, code, and at least one refactoring. This approach will help you write J2EE programs that work better, quicker, and with less effort. You'll find more than fifty J2EE AntiPatterns that tackle many of Java's biggest trouble spots for programming including: nnMiscalculating bandwidth requirements nToo much data in a JSP session nCommon functionality in every servlet nOverloading destinations in message driven beans nChoosing the wrong level of detail in J2EE servicesnnnnThe companion Web site contains the code examples from the book.

Hicks, Mike: Managing Distributed Applications: Troubleshooting a Heterogeneous Environment
Book Number: 46013
Prentice Hall PTR 2001 8vo softcover 310pp index, b/w illus. very good. Product DescriptionnPresents detailed graphical flowchart templates and case studies for tracking down important issues in distributed applications. Coverage includes Web and e-commerce systems, file, print, and directory services, and more. The CD-ROM contains network troubleshooting trialware that provides simulation of network faults. Softcover. DLC: Electronic data processing. nnFrom the Inside FlapnPrefacennComing from an entirely network-centric background, I would like to believe that it is the network (on its own) that is totally responsible for the business bottom line, but over the years, I have come to accept that the real power lies in the application.nnI started to come to this conclusion as the faults I was asked to track down moved away from simple link failures and configuration issues to more subtle "poor performance" issues. I began to see that these problems were seldom caused entirely by overloaded WAN or LAN links. As a result, I began to see a need to actually profile the application (from a network point of view), that is, to understand the client/server traffic needed to actually complete the transaction. I quickly observed that this system was dependent on many outside influences and that any one discrepancy in the process could cause the whole system to crumble.nnThis understanding of the process helped to close the gap between the application developers and support staff. If we could show them the interaction between their application and the infrastructure components and protocols, then together we could expedite resolution, eliminate the majority of finger-pointing associated with cross-group issues, and (probably most importantly) provide baseline information. Armed with this information, the developers could then scale their application for deployment and provide the network architects with realistic figures to design and upgrade the underlying infrastructure.nnThis had obvious implications to the enterprise world, and with the advancements in policy-based networking and application-aware networking, we began to see these profiles as an integral part of a network architect�s skill set. Consider this: If we can manage the application, we are no longer restricted to delivering (or selling) bandwidth between sites�we can just deliver applications. Because, let�s face it, the end-user ultimately doesn�t care if their data traverses a 2MB or 622MB circuit as long as the response meets their expectations (and business needs). So in theory, our underlying infrastructure can become more cost-effective, and in a sense, dynamic.nnThis book is divided into two parts. The first describes a methodology and set of rules that can be used when both baselining and troubleshooting an application. The second concentrates on what I consider to be the main application sets, and details their physical and logical make-ups, the interaction between the various components, and their associated dependencies. All this is then combined to demonstrate application management from a network point of view in the delivery of the case studies.nnThe information in this book should provide you with a good starting point. It would be impossible to explore and detail every possible configuration and scenario, so hopefully, this book gives you a basic understanding of application operation.
