About this title

Synopsis:

Java RMI contains a wealth of experience in designing and implementing Java's Remote Method Invocation. If you're a novice reader, you will quickly be brought up to speed on why RMI is such a powerful yet easy to use tool for distributed programming, while experts can gain valuable experience for constructing their own enterprise and distributed systems. With Java RMI, you'll learn tips and tricks for making your RMI code excel. The book also provides strategies for working with serialization, threading, the RMI registry, sockets and socket factories, activation, dynamic class downloading, HTTP tunneling, distributed garbage collection, JNDI, and CORBA. In short, a treasure trove of valuable RMI knowledge packed into one book.

About the Author:

William Grosso is a well-known speaker, Java SIG chair, and software architect currently residing in the San Francisco Bay area. He's been working with distributed systems since 1995, lectures for the University of California Berkeley Extension on Enterprise APIs, and is the principal engineer at Hipbone Inc. A former mathematician, he got into programming because it seemed like easy money. He got into distributed computing because he noticed that client-server gurus got the big bucks. And then he started programming in Java because he figured that's where the REAL money was. Having learned the error of his ways, he decided to write a book instead. When not programming or writing, he spends most of his time hiking, drumming, and trying to remember that it was he was about to say.
