Book description
To understand Jini, imagine that you could move to a new office across the world or check into any hotel--and could simply plug your notebook or Palm directly into the local network. Your device would immediately be recognized, and you would have access to the services at that location--transparently. Jini is Sun's Java-based technology, with potential to make transparent "universal plug and play" a reality.

Foundations of Jini 2 Programming, based on Jini 2.0, is an expanded, updated version of the most popular online tutorial for Jini. This is the perfect book for any Java programmer interested in learning and applying Jini toward their respective network applications (any Java-enabled device interoperable with another Java-enabled device).

Author Jan Newmarch covers comprehensive Jini advancements as well as other important concepts like how Enterprise JavaBeans blend in with the Jini framework and how CORBA fits in as well. This book contains revised chapters as well as several new chapters. New topics include Jeri, Config, Logging, ServiceStater, and advanced security.
