Java Training Overview
This session, designed for IT management and programmer/analysts alike, provides an overview of Java and its impact on our industry. Understand why Java is still one of the hottest industry topics and how to prepare your organization for the learning curve. If time permits, demonstrations of Java applets at work will supplement the lecture.
Java Training Background
Java is a broad software technology for developing sophisticated computing systems. Java emphasizes:
- Standardization, so developers don't have to keep reinventing the wheel.
- Dynamism, so applications can be assembled and connected quickly and flexibly.
- Security, so users are protected from malicious intent of unknown parties.
At the heart of the Java technology is Java the programming language. Java is a general purpose object-oriented language that borrows the best features of C and C++ while eliminating certain arcane and error-prone features of those languages. Designed from the ground-up, it introduces a number of built-in features not found in other languages. Java's appeal coincided with the phenomenal growth of the Internet, largely due to its ability to produce applets - fully functional platform-independent interactive programs embedded in otherwise static web pages.
