* Pro Apache Beehive should be the first and only book on Apache Beehive including its Eclipse Pollinate plug-in at the time it is published. * Covers this much anticipated open source SOA-driven J2EE alternative framework, originally created by BEA and later contributed to Apache. * In-depth, hands-on coverage including Comparison between PageFlows in Workshop to the Standard.
60-80% of Java developers require only simple Java Web applications. For these advanced, specialized users, the optimal deployment tool for simple Java-based Web applications is the open source Tomcat Web application server, which has graduated from Jakarta to become a topline Apache project, Apache Tomcat. Pro Apache Tomcat 6 fills an important need in the very large, very under-served Tomcat tech market. Unlike beginner manuals, this book wastes no time on Java or JSP introductions, and discusses JSP and Java code minimally. Instead, it gets right to the point and teaches you to use the newest Tomcat, version 6.
In this book, the authors take an application-centric approach: the development of an application drives the Struts along with Ajax coverage, rather than the other way around. Chapter titles include: What We Do Wrong: Web Antipatterns Explained; Managing Business Logic with Struts; Architecting the Data Access Tier with ObjectRelationalBridge; Building Flexible Front-Ends with the Tiles Framework; Dynamic Forms using Ajax and the Struts Validator Framework; Speeding Struts Development with XDoclet, and Logging and Debugging. Appendices discuss JavaEdge setup, Struts development tools, and Apache Struts Ti/WebWork. The end result: you will learn to use Struts very effectively!
As the majority of Java developers are only Web-tier developers; Java technologies like JavaServer Pages (JSP), JavaServer Faces (JSF), and Apache Tomcat are mainly applicable and relevant to their needs. This comprehensive and user-friendly book is the first and maybe even the only starter-level work of its kind combining the naturally complimentary JSP, JSF and Tomcat Web technologies into one consolidated treatment for developers focusing on just Java Web application development and deployment. This book is examples-driven using practical, real-time e-commerce case studies and scenarios throughout.
*Exploits the finer points of core and standard editions of Java 2 *Updated to include the final Java 2SE 5.0 (Tiger) release * *Ideal for experienced non-Java and Java programmers who need intermediate level book

Welcome to the proceedings of ECOOP 2009! Thanks to the local organizersfor working hard on arranging the conference — with the hard work they put in, it was a great success. Thanks to Sophia Drossopoulou for her dedicated work as PC Chair in assembling a ?ne scienti?c program including forward-looking keynotes, and for her e?orts to reduce the environmental impact of the PC meeting by replacing a physical meeting with a virtual meeting. I would also like to thank James Noble for taking the time and e?ort to write up last year’s banquet speech so that it could be included in this year’s proceedings. One of the strong features of ECOOPis the two days of workshopspreceding themainconferencethatallowsintenseinteractionbetweenparticipants.Thanks to all workshop organizers. Lastyear’ssuccessfulsummerschooltutorialswerefollowedupthisyearwith seven interesting tutorials. Thanks to the organizers and speakers. This year’s Dahl-Nygaard award honored yet another pioneer in the ?eld, namely, David Ungar for his contributions includingSelf. I appreciate his e?orts in providing us with an excellent award talk. The world is changing and so is ECOOP. Please contemplate my short note on the following pages entitled On Future Trends for ECOOP.
Process-Driven SOA: Patterns for Aligning Business and IT supplies detailed guidance on how to design and build software architectures that follow the principles of business-IT alignment. It illustrates the design process using proven patterns that address complex business/technical scenarios, where integrated concepts of service-oriented architecture (SOA), Business Process Management (BPM), and Event-Driven Architecture (EDA) are required. The book demonstrates that SOA is not limited to technical issues but instead, is a holistic challenge where aspects of SOA, EDA, and BPM must be addressed together. An ideal guide for SOA solution architects, designers, developers, managers, and students about to enter the field, the book: Provides an accessible introduction to basic and more advanced concepts in process-driven SOA Illustrates how to manage the complexities of business aligned IT architectures with detailed examples and industry cases Outlines a step-by-step design process using proven patterns to address complex business/ technical scenarios Integrates SOA, BPM, and EDA into practical patterns promoting SOA 2.0 Describing how to synchronize parallel enterprise processes, the authors explain how to cope with the architectural and design decisions you are likely to encounter when designing and implementing process-driven SOA systems. The decisions are described in the form of software patterns to provide you with a practical guideline for addressing key problems using time-tested solutions.
