About The Book

An Introduction To Parallel And Distributed Computations Through Java is the first book brought out to develop the concept of parallel and distributed programming through Java. It uses a pedagogical structure designed to take advantage of the implementation of parallel programming as well as distributed programming in Java.

This book is designed for a one-semester course on concurrent programming.  This book provides a better understanding of high-performance computing and will help to improve computation or execution speed through concurrency techniques. This book will help software developers, programmers, students to learn theoretical skills of parallel and distributed computer system architecture, memory architecture, programming models and how to design a parallel and distributed program This book deals with wrapped parallel and distributed computer system architecture, memory architecture and programming models, which will enable the reader to design parallel and distributed programs.

Also, it deals with the new development in concurrent programming, client/server architecture, web framework with service-oriented architecture and cloud computing by giving a detailed description of important parallel and distributed programming using Java.

The book starts with core Java concepts and deals with object-oriented programming, exception handling, file concepts and databases with its transactions, multithreaded programming, GUI programming and Applets. Expertise in these fields will give the reader practical experience in Java programming with multithreaded programming to execute parallel programming and TCP/IP, UDP, RMI and CORBA to execute distributed programming. The distributed programming experience extends to cover all major components of the Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) such as Java Persistence API and Java Messaging Services, Java Servlets, Java Server Pages (JSP), Java Server Faces (JSF), Facelets, AJAX, JAX-RPC, JAX-WS, JAX-RS, SAAJ.

Parallel and distributed computing, with the focus on both theory and practical methods. Sample programs provided for parallel and distributed memory architecture, programming model and design issues such as data dependency and parallel input and output. Example programs included in appendices for parallel concepts such as parallel sorting, searching, bouncing balls, traffic lights; examples programs also included for distributed concepts such as TCP/IP based multiuser chatting, file transfer using RMI, concurrent database access using RMI, concurrent database using TCP/IP.

Features:

  • Step by step instructions given on how to use NetBeans IDE tool to develop programs for EJB, Java Servlets, Java Server Pages (JSP), Java Server Faces (JSF), Facelets, AJAX, Java Persistence API, Java Messaging Services, JAX-RPC, JAX-WS, JAX-RS, SAAJ.
  • Covers core Java concepts, especially multithreaded programming.
  • Encompasses parallel and distributed computer system architecture, memory architecture and programming models.
  • Emphasizes how to designing parallel and distributed programs.
  • How to achieve JDBC with transactions, rowsets and parallelism in database processing.
  • Covers distributed programming with TCP/IP, UDP, RMI, and CORBA. Extends distributed knowledge with Java Servlets, Java Server Pages (JSP), Java Server Faces (JSF), Facelets and AJAX. Provides business logic application with Java Persistence API and Java Messaging Services.
  • Deals with cloud computing, its applications and web services.
  • Service Oriented Architectures towards to cloud computing with JAX-RPC, JAX-WS, JAX-RS, SAAJ. The complete guide to all major components of the Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) Sample programs provided for most parallel and distributed computing concepts.
