The increasing popularity and availability of multicore processors is creating a whole new set of challenges–although you can enjoy true concurrency, you’re now faced with higher contention and synchronization issues. Deploying an existing application on a multicore processor may bring out previously hidden concurrency issues. Java’s multi-threading facility by itself isn’t enough—it’s a very low level abstraction. Instead, you need a paradigm that provides a higher level of abstraction to deal with concurrency. It’s time to embrace Functional Programming.

Scala is a hybrid Object-Oriented/Functional Programming language on the JVM. Using Scala, you can create traditional imperative programs, intermix them with Java code, and at the same time take advantage of higher levels of abstraction. You can use features that lead to concise, highly expressive code that remove the pain of dealing with concurrency.

Programming Scala will show you the fundamentals of functional programming using Scala. Very quickly, you’ll learn how this statically typed language can give you dynamic capabilities to create concise, scalable, highly capable concurrent code.

Pragmatic programmers always use the right tool for the job. For concurrent programming on the Java VM, Scala is the tool, and Programming Scala by award-winning author Venkat Subramaniam is your guide.

A complete introduction for beginners to Sun’s powerful JavaFX scripting language

JavaFX is a scripting language which provides built-in properties for manipulating objects within a 2D coordinate system. A competing technology to Microsoft’s Silverlight, JavaFX provides the tools to fill and pen stroke colors, and create special effects, shapes and lines. It also manipulates images and play videos and sound and defines animations that affect objects over time. This complete introduction for any level doesn’t bury you with details. It starts quickly with an introduction to the power of JavaFX key features–scene node graphs, nodes as components, the coordinate system, layout options, colors and gradients, custom classes with inheritance, animation, binding, and event handlers. It then shows step-by-step how these features could be used in a real JavaFX application and will help an application look professionally designed. Commissioned by JavaFX product team and reviewed by renowned Java author, Brian Goetz, this guide is intended as the first and most accessible book for people new to JavaFX.

The Andersons are working directly with the JavaFX team at Sun for a complete and authoritative guide Gets you started on building rich Web apps quickly without having to sort through unnecessary details or search the Web for answers Focuses on most useful features and shows how to build apps that tap the full potential of JavaFX

J2EE Design Patterns by William Crawford, Jonathan Kaplan
Publisher: O’Reilly Media; 1 edition (September 30, 2003) | ISBN-10: 0596004273 | CHM | 1,2 Mb | 350 pages

Architects of buildings and architects of software have more in common than most people think. Both professions require attention to detail, and both practitioners will see their work collapse around them if they make too many mistakes. It’s impossible to imagine a world in which buildings get built without blueprints, but it’s still common for software applications to be designed and built without blueprints, or in this case, design patterns. A software design pattern can be identified as “a recurring solution to a recurring problem.” Using design patterns for software development makes sense in the same way that architectural design patterns make sense–if it works well in one place, why not use it in another?

Sybex | 2003-12-30 | ISBN: 0782142850 | PDF | Pages 400 | 3.43 MB

The problems encountered by a beginning Java programmer are many–and mostly minor.

The problems you encounter as an experienced Java programmer are far fewer—and far more serious.

Java Programming 10-Minute Solutions provides direct solutions to the thorny problems you’re most likely to run up against in your work. Especially when a project entails new techniques or draws you into a realm outside your immediate expertise, potential headaches abound. With this book, a veteran Java programmer saves you both aggravation and—just as important—time.

Here are some of the solutions you’ll find inside:

* Parsing XML using SAX and DOM, and using XSLT to transform XML to HTML
* Java file I/O: copying and deleting entire directories
* Using Java search algorithms
* Thread management
* Leveraging Java Web Services support in SOAP, XML-RPC, and XML over HTTP
* Low-level JDBC programming
* Using servlets and JSPs (including struts) for web applications
* Using Enterprise JavaBeans (EJBs) container managed persistence
* Generating EJB classes with ant and XDocolet
* Using JUnit for unit testing

Modeled after the straightforward Q&A approach of the DevX website, these in-depth, code-intensive solutions help you past obstacles right now and ultimately make you a smarter, more effective programmer.
