About the Book
With the emergence of the Internet
and heterogeneous computing environments, message-passing technology has
gone from obscure to mainstream. Cell phones, pagers, PDAs, and browser-based
network clients have made messaging technology accessible to everyone.
This book targets developers interested
in implementation, engineers migrating into communications, and network
administrators interested in deployment issues. This book is an extensive
guide to constructing a fully functional message-passing engine, complete
with deployment and management tools.
With short, step-by-step tutorials,
Bill Blunden moves smoothly from explaining basic theory to designing and
implementing high-level subsystems. Background material is presented in
a way that will appeal to novice engineers, but the sophisticated approach
will make advanced developers feel right at home. The companion CD contains
source code for original implementation, in addition to system management
utilities.
