JAVA: Core Concepts and Applications

Developing application software plays a crucial role in an enterprise and thus knowledge of programming language has become more essential. This book offers a comprehensive study package of the core concepts of Java Programming, with real-world examples from the industry, varieties of concepts like Marker Interface, Serialization, Externalization, Multithreading, Collection Framework etc., making it well-suited for OCJP/SCJP programs. Special coverage of utilities as (a) internet programming concepts, (b) benefits of executing Java programs, (c) advantages of updating new features, (d) ways of increased user performance, (e) security features and enhancements, and (f) improved developer productivity. With its coverage and design, it will serve as a textbook for beginners for students of BE and B. Tech in Computer Science & Engineering and Information Technology, and Diploma in Computer Science. It will also be a good reference for BCA, MCA, BSc and MSc in Computer Science and Information Technology, DOEACC courses and for Java software professionals. Salient Features: Annotation: A new feature in Java Programming provided by JDK5.0 version. It can be used to describe metadata (data about data) in Java programming. Collection Framework: All collection frameworks contain the Interfaces, Implementations and Algorithms. Enhanced for loop: Introduced in Java5. The advantage of for-each loop is that it eliminates the possibility of bugs and makes the code more readable. Serialization & De-Serialization Externalization Debugging Exercises: In every chapter debugging exercise has been given which will help for OCJP. Contents : 1. Object Oriented Programming (OOP) 2.
