Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture, A System of Patterns
Book 1
Pattern - Oriented Software Architecture A System of Patterns Frank Buschmann, Regine Meunier, Hans Rohnert, Peter Sommerlad, Michael Stal of Siemens AG, Germany Pattern-oriented software architecture is a new approach to software development. This book represents the progression and evolution of the pattern approach into a system of patterns capable of describing and documenting large-scale applications. A pattern system provides, on one level, a pool of proven solutions to many recurring design problems. On another it shows how to combine individual patterns into heterogeneous structures and as such it can be used to facilitate a constructive development of software systems. Uniquely, the patterns that are presented in this book span several levels of abstraction, from high-level architectural patterns and medium-level design patterns to low-level idioms. The intention of, and motivation for, this book is to support both novices and experts in software development. Novices will gain from the experience inherent in pattern descriptions and experts will hopefully make use of, add to, extend and modify patterns to tailor them to their own needs. None of the pattern descriptions are cast in stone and, just as they are borne from experience, it is expected that further use will feed in and refine individual patterns and produce an evolving system of patterns.

Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture, Patterns for Concurrent and Networked Objects
Book 2
Designing application and middleware software to run in concurrentand networked environments is a significant challenge to softwaredevelopers. The patterns catalogued in this second volume ofPattern-Oriented Software Architectures (POSA) form the basis of apattern language that addresses issues associated with concurrencyand networking.

The book presents 17 interrelated patterns ranging from idiomsthrough architectural designs. They cover core elements of buildingconcurrent and network systems: service access and configuration,event handling, synchronization,

and concurrency. All patterns present extensive examples and knownuses in multiple programming languages, including C++, C, andJava.

The book can be used to tackle specific software developmentproblems or read from cover to cover to provide a fundamentalunderstanding of the best practices for constructing concurrent andnetworked applications and middleware.

About the Authors

This book has been written by the award winning team responsiblefor the first POSA volume "A System of Patterns", joined in thisvolume by Douglas C. Schmidt from University of California, Irvine(UCI), USA.

Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture, Patterns for Resource Management
Book 3
The first volume of the POSA pattern series introduced abroad-spectrum of general-purpose patterns in software design andarchitecture. The second narrowed the focus to fundamentalpatterns for building sophisticated concurrent and networkedsoftware systems and applications. This volume uses design patternsto present techniques for implementing effective resourcemanagement in a system.

The patterns are covered in detail making use of severalexamples providing directions to the readers on how toimplement the presented patterns. Additionally, the volume presentsa thorough introduction into resource management and a case studywhere the patterns are applied to the domain of mobile radionetworks. The patterns are grouped by different areas of resourcemanagement and hence address the complete lifecycle of resources:resource acquisition, coordination and release.

Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture, A Pattern Language for Distributed Computing
Book 4
The eagerly awaited Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture(POSA) Volume 4 is about a pattern language for distributedcomputing.

The authors will guide you through the best practices andintroduce you to key areas of building distributed softwaresystems. POSA 4 connects many stand-alone patterns, patterncollections and pattern languages from the existing body ofliterature found in the POSA series. Such patterns relate to andare useful for distributed computing to a single language.

The panel of experts provides you with a consistent andcoherent holistic view on the craft of building distributedsystems.Includes a foreword by Martin FowlerA must read for practitioners who want practical advice todevelop a comprehensive language integrating patterns from keyliterature.

missions in fact also treat an envisaged mutual impact among them. As for the 2002 edition in Irvine, the organizers wanted to stimulate this cross-pollination with a program of shared famous keynote speakers (this year we got Sycara, - ble, Soley and Mylopoulos!), and encouraged multiple attendance by providing authors with free access to another conference or workshop of their choice. We received an even larger number of submissions than last year for the three conferences (360 in total) and the workshops (170 in total). Not only can we therefore again claim a measurable success in attracting a representative volume of scienti?c papers, but such a harvest allowed the program committees of course to compose a high-quality cross-section of worldwide research in the areas covered. In spite of the increased number of submissions, the Program Chairs of the three main conferences decided to accept only approximately the same number of papers for presentation and publication as in 2002 (i. e. , around 1 paper out of every 4–5 submitted). For the workshops, the acceptance rate was about 1 in 2. Also for this reason, we decided to separate the proceedings into two volumes with their own titles, and we are grateful to Springer-Verlag for their collaboration in producing these two books. The reviewing process by the respective program committees was very professional and each paper in the main conferences was reviewed by at least three referees.
Head First Java: A Brain-Friendly Guide, Edition 2
Kathy Sierra
Learning a complex new language is no easy task especially when it s an object-oriented computer programming language like Java. You might think the problem is your brain. It seems to have a mind of its own, a mind that doesn't always want to take in the dry, technical stuff you're forced to study.

The fact is your brain craves novelty. It's constantly searching, scanning, waiting for something unusual to happen. After all, that's the way it was built to help you stay alive. It takes all the routine, ordinary, dull stuff and filters it to the background so it won't interfere with your brain's real work--recording things that matter. How does your brain know what matters? It's like the creators of the Head First approach say, suppose you're out for a hike and a tiger jumps in front of you, what happens in your brain? Neurons fire. Emotions crank up. Chemicals surge.

That's how your brain knows.

And that's how your brain will learn Java. Head First Java combines puzzles, strong visuals, mysteries, and soul-searching interviews with famous Java objects to engage you in many different ways. It's fast, it's fun, and it's effective. And, despite its playful appearance, Head First Java is serious stuff: a complete introduction to object-oriented programming and Java. You'll learn everything from the fundamentals to advanced topics, including threads, network sockets, and distributed programming with RMI. And the new. second edition focuses on Java 5.0, the latest version of the Java language and development platform. Because Java 5.0 is a major update to the platform, with deep, code-level changes, even more careful study and implementation is required. So learning the Head First way is more important than ever.

If you've read a Head First book, you know what to expect--a visually rich format designed for the way your brain works. If you haven't, you're in for a treat. You'll see why people say it's unlike any other Java book you've ever read.

By exploiting how your brain works, Head First Java compresses the time it takes to learn and retain--complex information. Its unique approach not only shows you what you need to know about Java syntax, it teaches you to think like a Java programmer. If you want to be bored, buy some other book. But if you want to understand Java, this book's for you.

Object-Oriented Technology. ECOOP 2003 Workshop Reader: ECOOP 2003 Workshops, Darmstadt, Germany, July 21-25, 2003, Final Reports
Frank Buschmann
This volume represents the seventh edition of the ECOOP Workshop Reader, a compendiumofworkshopreportsfromthe17thEuropeanConferenceonObject- Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2003), held in Darmstadt, Germany, during July 21–25, 2003. The workshops were held during the ?rst two days of the conference. They cover a wide range of interesting and innovative topics in object-oriented te- nology and o?ered the participants an opportunity for interaction and lively discussion. Twenty-one workshops were selected from a total of 24 submissions based on their scienti?c merit, the actuality of the topic, and their potential for a lively interaction. Unfortunately, one workshop had to be cancelled. Special thanks are due to the workshop organizers who recorded and s- marized the discussions. We would also like to thank all the participants for their presentations and lively contributions to the discussion: they made this volume possible. Last, but not least, we wish to express our appreciation to the members of the organizing committee who put in countless hours setting up and coordinating the workshops. We hope that this snapshot of current object-oriented technology will prove stimulating to you. October 2003 Frank Buschmann Alejandro Buchmann Mariano Cilia Organization ECOOP 2003 was organized by the Software Technology Group, Department of Computer Science, Darmstadt University of Technology under the auspices of AITO (Association Internationale pour les Technologies Objets) in cooperation with ACM SIGPLAN. The proceedings of the main conference were published as LNCS 2743.
