Description

Features

• Flexible, convenient presentation  – The JVM is not a physical chip but a piece of software found on every computer in the world, so students can write and run their exercises on any computer without worrying about compatibility; ideal for commuter or distance education, or schools with limited resources.

• Focus on the JVM Language — Explains how the Java language actually causes things to happen.

• Presentation of alternate architectures – Compares the JVM to the original IBM-PC chip, the Pentium, the Power PC, and an embedded controller chip to explore how other computers express the same principles.

• Principle-based approach — Allows transfer between machines.

• Multi-Language Examples — Integrate several computer operating systems, including Windows, Linux, Mac, BeOS and Solaris; students do not need a prior understanding of Java.

• Tested code examples – Eliminates errors that could confuse students.

• Optional chapters that are tunable to individual equipment.

• Key Issues — Summarizes each chapter with a brief review of important concepts.
