Practical .NET 2.0 Networking Projects

Network communication is one of the fastest growing technology areas in today's industry. This book addresses the market demand of novice .NET programmers to learn about, and build, networked applications - a subject very often omitted from traditional computer programming books and only dealt with at a high level inaccessible to the majority of the market. This book rectifies that trend by bringing cutting-edge technologies such as GPS communication, Bluetooth and Radio Frequency ID (RFID) within reach of the mass-market. The .NET 2.0 Framework and .NET 2.0 Compact Framework provide a number of APIs for communicating through these technologies and this book demonstrates these in the form of a number of practical projects that readers can undertake to build their own network additions.
