What does volatile do? This is probably best explained by comparing the effects that volatile and synchronized have on a method. volatile is a field modifier, while synchronized modifies code blocks and methods. So we can specify three variations of a simple accessor using those two keywords: int i1; int geti1() {return i1;} volatile int i2; int geti2() {return i2;} int i3; synchronized int geti3() {return i3;} geti1() accesses the value currently stored in i1 in the current thread . Threads can have local copies of variables, and the data does not have to be the same as the data held in other threads. In particular, another thread may have updated i1 in it's thread, but the value in the current thread could be different from that updated value. In fact Java has the idea of a "main" memory, and this is the memory that holds the current "correct" value for variables. Threads can have their own copy of dat...

The World Wide Web Consortium’s glossary defines SOA as "A set of components which can be invoked, and whose interface descriptions can be published and discovered". Clear as mud? We thought so, too. To understand the concept, let’s think for a moment how the evolution of software development has progressed over the years. In the beginning were languages like Pascal or C, where the user wrote a text file of code and used a compiler to make a machine-readable version that could be run on the computer. Sensible programmers (and the compiler writers, for that matter) placed commonly-used functions in “libraries” – modules that could be included at will in a developer’s program to save having to write the same lump of code over and over again. The problem with the traditional model was that a function could only work with data types that it had been written for. So it was no good having (say) a function printAsString() that handled decimal values if you wanted to ...

AJAX = Asynchronous JavaScript and XML AJAX is not a new programming language, but a new technique for creating better, faster, and more interactive web applications. With AJAX, a JavaScript can communicate directly with the server, with the XMLHttpRequest object. With this object, a JavaScript can trade data with a web server, without reloading the page. AJAX uses asynchronous data transfer (HTTP requests) between the browser and the web server, allowing web pages to request small bits of information from the server instead of whole pages. The AJAX technique makes Internet applications smaller, faster and more user-friendly. AJAX is based on Internet standards AJAX is based on the following web standards: JavaScript XML HTML CSS AJAX applications are browser and platform independent. AJAX is about better Internet-applications Internet-applications have many benefits over desktop applications; they can reach a larger audience, they are easier to install and...
