Web portals often function as a point of access to information on the World Wide Web. Web portals, such as Yahoo!, present information from diverse sources in a unified way. Aside from the search engine standard, web portals offer other services such as e–mail, news, stock prices, infotainment, and various other features. Portals provide a means for enterprises to supplJames Crowleyhttp://www.developerfusion.com/book/11246/pro-spring-dynamic-modules-for-osgitrade-service-platforms/Pro Spring Dynamic Modules for OSGi Service Platforms2009-02-12T00:00:00.00ZSpring and OSGi's features are a natural fit; they are orthogonal to each other: OSGi is about packaging, deployment, and versioning issues, while Spring is about providing the necessary foundation to wire up Java classes in their most basic form using dependency injection and aspect orientation to fulfill an application's purpose. Pro Spring Dynamic Modules for OSGi™ Service Platforms by Daniel Rubio is the first book to cover OSGi as practically implemented by the world's moJames Crowleyhttp://www.developerfusion.com/book/12597/the-definitive-guide-to-grails-second-edition-experts-voice-in-web-development/The Definitive Guide to Grails2009-01-15T00:00:00.00ZThe rise of Ruby on Rails has signified a huge shift in how we build web applications today; it is a fantastic framework with a growing community. There is, however, space for another such framework that integrates seamlessly with Java. Thousands of companies have invested in Java, and these same companies are losing out on the benefits of a Rails–like framework. Enter Grails. Grails is not just a Rails clone, it aims to provide a Rails–like environment that is more familiar to JavaJames Crowleyhttp://www.developerfusion.com/book/11295/groovy-and-grails-recipes-recipes-a-problemsolution-approach/Groovy and Grails Recipes2008-12-02T00:00:00.00ZGroovy and Grails Recipes is the busy developers' guide for developing applications in Groovy and Grails. Rather than boring you with theoretical knowledge of “yet another language/framework,” this book delves straight into solving real–life problems in Groovy and Grails using easy–to–understand, well–explained code snippets. Through learning by example, you will be able to pick up on Groovy and Grails quickly and use the book as an essential reference wJames Crowleyhttp://www.developerfusion.com/book/11298/beginning-javatrade-me-platform-beginning-from-novice-to-professional/Beginning Java ME Platform2008-10-23T00:00:00.00ZHave you thought about building games for your cell phone or other wireless devices?

The framework improves productivity by addressing three major pain–points facing web application developers: user interface navigation control, state management, and modularity. The Definitive Guide to Spring Web Flow covers Spring Web Flow in detail by explaining its motivation and feature set, as well as providing practical guidance for using the framework to develop web applications successfullyJames Crowleyhttp://www.developerfusion.com/book/17644/beginning-databasedriven-application-development-in-javatrade-ee-using-glassfishtrade-from-novice-to-professional/Beginning Database-Driven Application Development in Java EE: Using GlassFish2008-09-22T00:00:00.00ZBeginning Database-Driven Application Development in Java™ EE: Using GlassFish™ focuses on the open source GlassFish persistence engine. This book shows Java programmers how to develop applications utilizing relational database technologies with examples using Oracle and MySQL and the GlassFish application development framework and deployment platform all based on Java EE.James Crowleyhttp://www.developerfusion.com/book/17645/the-definitive-guide-to-apache-myfaces-and-facelets/The Definitive Guide to Apache MyFaces and Facelets2008-09-22T00:00:00.00ZThe Definitive Guide to Apache MyFaces and Facelets is an ideal reference if youre looking to develop real–world applications with the open source lightweight Apache MyFaces and Dojo (the Ajax API). The book focuses less on theory and more on aspects like scalability, design, optimization, and configurability. This book emphasizes meeting real–world requirements for performance and scalability. It includes lucid code samples that reflect the pattern being described.James Crowleyhttp://www.developerfusion.com/book/31299/beginning-google-web-toolkit-from-novice-to-professional-beginning-from-novice-to-professional/Beginning Google Web Toolkit: From Novice to Professional2008-09-17T00:00:00.00ZThe open source, lightweight Google Web Toolkit (GWT) is a framework that allows Java developers to build Rich Internet Applications (RIA), more recently called Ajax applications, in Java. Typically, writing these applications requires a lot of JavaScript development. However, Java and JavaScript are very distinctively different languages (although the name suggests otherwise), therefore requiring a different development process.James Crowleyhttp://www.developerfusion.com/book/31332/pro-spring-25/Pro Spring 2.5 (Books for Professionals by Professionals)2008-08-15T00:00:00.00ZThe Spring Framework 2.5 release reflects the state of the art in both the Spring Framework and enterprise Java frameworks as a whole. A guidebook to this critical tool is necessary reading for any conscientious Java developer. — Rob Harrop, author of Pro Spring The move from so–called heavyweight architectures, such as Enterprise JavaBeans, toward lightweight frameworks, like Spring, has not stopped since Pro Spring was published by Rob Harrop and Jan Machacek in 2005; in fact, itJames Crowley
