Advanced Java

Concurrency is a hard to master topic. This Java course takes you from the basics you already know, (runnable and synchronization) to the next level: the java.util.concurrent API.

Expanding on the world's best-selling Java textbook, Advanced Java™ 2 Platform How to Program includes an in-depth discussion of advanced topics, aiding developers in producing significant, scalable Java applications and distributed systems.

Advanced Java Game Programming teaches you how to create desktop and Internet computer games using the latest Java programming language techniques. Whereas other Java game programming books focus on introductory Java material, this book covers game programming for experienced Java developers.

Advanced Java Networking gives the reader a well-rounded and fairly detailed introduction to Java networking technologies. The subjects Sridharan covers sound like a seminar list from a software development conference: IDL/CORBA, RMI, JDBC/SQL, JavaBeans, Castanet, JMAPI, servlets, and JavaOS, to name a few. But this isn't a dilettantish cursory look at each of many technologies. Rather, this book provides the programmer with the kind of information needed to make solid design and implementation decisions. In the chapter on RMI, for example, Sridharan spends a little time explaining the attractions and shortcomings of the specification. Then, while walking you through the creation of a calendaring application, shows you some of the ins and outs of actual program design with RMI.
