Teach Yourself Java in 21 Days

Based on the enormous amount of press Java is getting and the amount of excitement it has generated, you may get the impression that Java will save the world-or at least solve all the problems of the Internet. Not so. Java's hype has run far ahead of its capabilities, and while Java is indeed new and interesting, it really is another programming language with which you write programs that run on the Internet. In this respect, Java is closer to popular programming languages such as C, C++, Visual Basic, or Pascal, than it is to a page description language such as HTML, or a very simple scripting language such as JavaScript.

Data Structures and Algorithms with Object-Oriented Design Patterns in Java

This book was motivated by my experience in teaching the course E&CE 250: Algorithms and Data Structures in the Computer Engineering program at the University of Waterloo. I have observed that the advent of object-oriented methods and the emergence of object-oriented design patterns has lead to a profound change in the pedagogy of data structures and algorithms.

JavaTM Performance Tuning and Java Optimization Tips

This paper illustrates practical ways you can improve JavaTM performance, and presents 30 Java performance tuning and Java efficiency techniques. These techniques focus on Java language and library features. Performance is defined to include both speed and space issues, that is, how to make your programs run faster, while using less memory and disk space. Many of the techniques are illustrated by code examples.
