ID2212 Network Programming with Java 7.5 credits

Nätverksprogrammering med Java

This course introduces the programming language Java and the techniques for network programming in it. It gives hands-on experience in writing distributed applications.

The aim of this course is to introduce advanced network programming tools and techniques on the level which enables one

to use Java Application Programming Interface and windowing toolkits (AWT, Swing)
to design GUI clients for network servers
to develop concurrent programs with threads, in particular, multithreaded servers
to program Java applets and servlets
to use sockets, URL connections and content handlers in network programming
to develop distributed applications with sockets, Java RMI, CORBA, servlets, JSP, JSF, EJB, JDBC, JXTA and J2ME (Java 2 platform, Micro Edition).
