Synopsis

Illustrates how to put the Jini framework to use in the development of everyday Java applications. The author describes the service proxies that carry the code needed to use Jini services, the lookup service that finds and accesses services, and the discovery process that finds proxies for the lookup service. The Joinmanager utility class, landlords and leases, the Jini event model, the JavaSpace approach to distributed applications, and the activation service are covered. Annotation c.
