Synopsis

Jini is a simple set of Java Classes and services that allows devices (i.e., printers) and services (i.e., printing) to access each other seamlessly, adapt to a continually changing environment, and share code and configurations transparently. Jini has the potential to radically alter our use of computer networks, since it allows and encourages totally new types of services and new uses of existing networks. Jini in a Nutshell is a quick reference guide to developing services and clients using Jini. It covers everything an experienced Java programmer needs to know to implement Jini, including tutorial chapters to get you up to speed quickly and reference chapters that analyze and explain every Java package related to Jini. Over the course of the book the authors develop a complete example program--with samples of both server and client applications. Topics covered include: Setting up the Jini programming environment RMI Basic and advanced Jini programming Jini services, including JavaSpaces Jini utilities Security The Sun Community Source License Jini in a Nutshell covers the Jini 1.0 specification and requires the Java 2 Platform.

Author Bio
Scott Oaks is a Java technologist at Sun Microsystems, where he has worked since 1987. While at Sun, he has specialized in many disparate technologies, from the SunOS kernel to network programming and RPCs to the X Window System to threading. Since early 1995, he has been primarily focused on Java and bringing Java technology to end users. He is the author of Java Security and coauthor of Java Threads, both from O'Reilly. Around the Internet, Scott is best known as the author of olvwm, the OPEN LOOK window manager. Scott holds a bachelor of science in mathematics and computer science from the University of Denver and a master of science in computer science from Brown University. Prior to joining Sun, he worked in the research division of Bear, Sterns. In his other life, Scott enjoys music (he plays flute and piccolo with community groups in New York), cooking, theatre, and traveling with his husband, James. Henry Wong is a tactical engineer at Sun Microsystems, where he has worked since 1989. Originally hired as a consultant to help customers with special device drivers, kernel modifications, and DOS interoperability products, Henry has also worked on Solaris ports, performance tuning projects, and multithreaded design and implementations for benchmarks and demos. Since early 1995, Henry has been involved in developing Java prototypes and supporting customers who are using Java. He is a coauthor of Java Threads from O'Reilly. Prior to joining Sun, Henry earned a bachelor of science degree in chemical engineering from The Cooper Union in 1987. He joined a small software company in 1986, working on SCSI device drivers, image and audio data compression, and graphics tools used for a medical information system. When not in front of a computer, Henry is an instrument-rated private pilot, who also likes to dabble in archery, cooking, and traveling with his wife, Nini.
