This book, Java Server Programming: Java EE 6 (J2EE 1.6) Tutorials, aids you to learn the Java EE 6 technologies and simultaneously assists you to implement these technologies in developing the automated Hospital Management System (HMS) project. This book is the amalgamation of conceptual and practical implementation of the Java EE 6 technologies, such as JDBC, Java Servlet, JavaServer Pages (JSP), Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB), and Java Persistence API (JPA).
The complete deployment and execution of the HMS project, being developed using each and every Java EE 6 concept, is the highlighting aspect of the book. All this, as the book explores the Java EE 6 concepts with appropriate examples and executable applications-no doubt, every aspect of the book is worth its price.
