JSP workshop
Opis tehnologij in področij:

• Web application architecture is based on communication (request, reply) between server and client;
•Server Jakarta Tomcat is among the most extensive JSP containers;
•Servlets are java technology for serving a dynamical content to a client;
•JSP is an upgrade of Servlet technology and enables a division of interfaces from business logic, which consequently speeds up and simplifies a development and maintenance of web applications.
•.war files are packet web applications, ready to be installed on a server:
•Users defined tags substitute java scriptlets and this way enable a strict division of java code and HTML generated code.
•Jakarta Struts is a framework for implementing web applications after MVC paradigm. This simplifies implementation and maintenance of web applications even more.

 

Organiser of the festival is Multimedia center Kibla, Maribor

 



Data accessibility and up-to-date information today is of an extreme importance. Therefore computer applications are moving into completely different environments (Internet, PDA devices and even household appliances). Allocation and linkage of applications have a key meaning. High level of allocation ensures us to obtain data from many data sources, better application accessibility and effective usage of system sources. And the high level of linkage enables cooperation of applications and increases the flow of data and information.

Web applications have many advantages compared to usual desktop applications. They enable distance working, access to remote and allocated sources, they are quite easy to link and easier to maintain, etc. But it is important to give special attention to security.

Web applications are made of dynamical web site (user's inteface) and components, which implement business logic. Most frequently used technologies at the moment are PHP, ASP and JSP.

JSP (JavaServer Pages) technology was chosen because it is based on java, which enables higher level of portability, use of extremely strong programming language and simple linkage with other technologies.

JSP workshop will introduce java technologies for implementing web applications. We will get to know architecture of web applications, server Jakarta Tomcat, java servlets, JSP pages, packing and installing web applications, user defined tags and Jakarta Struts framework.
