About the Book

This book shows developers how to use JavaSpaces to build practical, scalable, distributed systems.  The authors are pioneers in the use of JavaSpaces to build real systems that solve real problems. It will increase the understanding of where JavaSpaces are applicable, and how to use them effectively within your system architecture. Well written and clearly presented, practical implementation guide for JavaSpaces. The book is endorsed by Jim Waldo: Distinguished Engineer at Sun Microsystems, lead architect for the Jini networking technology and JavaSpaces. Follows on from Bishop and Warren's classic: Java in Practice. Audience: Programmers with some experience in Java. User level: Intermediate. Philip Bishop specializes in the design and implemenation of large scale systems for organizations ranging from utility companies to investment banks. Nigel Warren is co-founder and Director of Technology at IntaMission Ltd, where he researches and designs agile and evolvable  software infrastructures for next generation distributed systems.

Review :
Phil Bishop and Nigel Warren have been pioneers in the use of JavaSpaces to build real systems that solve real problems. This book is an excellent distillation of their accumulated wisdom on this subject, and will save any programmer using the technology far more time than it will take to read. It is also well written and clearly presented, a rarity in technical books these days. I learned a lot reading it. Jim Waldo, "Distinguished Engineer at Sun Microsystems, lead architect for the Jini networking technology and JavaSpaces."
