This book discusses the role of VisualAge in the development of transaction based applications. It presents different ways to connect a graphical user interface built with VisualAge to transactions residing on a host system, and shows how nonvisual parts may be used to act as an interface between host components and parts representing business logic.
For computer science courses focusing on distributed systems. This book systematically answers critical management and technical questions about the modern IT infrastructure, in particular, middleware.
For more than 20 years, Network World has been the premier provider of information, intelligence and insight for network and IT executives responsible for the digital nervous systems of large organizations. Readers are responsible for designing, implementing and managing the voice, data and video systems their companies use to support everything from business critical applications to employee collaboration and electronic commerce.
This book comes with trial versions of all the software users need to build sophisticated, Web-based, database-enabled applications--even Java Beans components. The authors offer expert advice on object-oriented development techniques, optimizing visual environments, and building real-world enterprise applications.
Berson, a recognized client/server authority, covers all the bases, providing the fundamentals of client/server, as well as sound implementation and performance tips. He discusses crucial new technologies such as massively parallel processors and how the impact distributed processing and client/server architecture.

Novell's Tuxedo provides the tools users need to develop cost-effective, high-performance client/server applications, especially in large and complex environments. Now, this book shows how to "suit it up". It presents an overview of transaction processing principles plus programming examples. Case studies are also included.
Explains some of the more important developments happening in this field and does so in a manner that even the newest practitioner can understand. Ties together all the diverse elements of client/server (C/S) computing. Discusses which applications can be downsized and how to go about it. Describes numerous software products available for implementing C/S architecture including front-end tools, back-end servers, networking software, application development environments, security and systems management tools. Contains a significant amount of case histories which illustrate exactly how C/S systems are implemented.

It is a complete tutorial and reference for writing Java applications and porting them to databases and the Web--with up-to-the-minute coverage of JFC, JavaBeans, servlets, and more. The CD-ROM includes trial versions of VisualAge for Java 2.0 and DB2 Universal Server.
The key to client/server computing.Transaction processing techniques are deeply ingrained in the fields ofdatabases and operating systems and are used to monitor, control and updateinformation in modern computer systems. This book will show you how large,distributed, heterogeneous computer systems can be made to work reliably.Using transactions as a unifying conceptual framework, the authors show howto build high-performance distributed systems and high-availabilityapplications with finite budgets and risk. The authors provide detailed explanations of why various problems occur aswell as practical, usable techniques for their solution. Throughout the book,examples and techniques are drawn from the most successful commercial andresearch systems. Extensive use of compilable C code fragments demonstratesthe many transaction processing algorithms presented in the book. The bookwill be valuable to anyone interested in implementing distributed systemsor client/server architectures.
