Developing Distributed and E-Commerce Applications, 2/e

The growth of interest in distributed systems which address the business needs of companies, and which use network technology ¿ primarily the technology employed in the internet - has been dramatic.  This book describes the development of the new technologies that have emerged or have matured over recent years, such as web servers, CORBA, HTML, XML and Java.  It looks in particular at more challenging applications where major problems in performance and reliability need to be addressed. Using a ¿bottom-up¿ approach, the book discusses client/servers and distributed development paradigms before moving on to more specific technologies that are examples of these concepts. The final part of the book covers advanced topics, such as internet security, concurrency, agents, and ubiquitous/mobile computing.

近年來，對於解決企業需求並使用網路技術（主要是互聯網技術）的分散式系統的興趣急劇增長。本書描述了近年來出現或成熟的新技術的發展，例如網頁伺服器、CORBA、HTML、XML和Java。特別關注在性能和可靠性方面需要解決的較具挑戰性的應用。本書以自下而上的方式討論了客戶端/伺服器和分散式開發範式，然後轉向這些概念的具體技術示例。書的最後一部分涵蓋了高級主題，例如網路安全、並行性、代理和普遍/移動計算。
