Description

The course will introduce concepts in programming web application servers. We will study the fundamental architectural elements of programming web sites that produce content dynamically. The primary technology introduced will be java servlets and java server pages (JSPS), but we will also cover the related topics as necessary so that students may build significant applications. Such topics include: http; html and xml; JavaBeans; design patterns (e.g., abstract factories and model-view-controller); tag libraries (JSTL); relational databases (MYSQL and JDBC); object-relation mapping tools; security (including SSL); Ajax; web services (SOAP, WSDL and UDDI); frameworks; internationalization; scalability and performance issues.
