There's no sense spending a lot of time explaining that the World Wide Web (WWW) has had exponential growth over past several years . Just about everyone has at least heard about www.this or www.that. It's really inescapable. It's gone from a tool designed primarily for researchers to share their research information, to a completely new paradigm for business exploration and channeling goods and services. Along with this explosion in Internet development, Java has been moving right along at the same speed and has become an extremely critical component to the future of Internet development. This is not to claim that Java is the only language that is or will be used for development of e-business on the Net, but it is and will remain a dominant technology as the growth continues. |
