Before the Java language was available, distributed systems engineering was greatly concerned with the problem of heterogeneity—the differences between CPUs, OSes, languages, and data formats. The challenge was to create architectureneutral formats and protocols which could be adapted to any architecture without burdening the programmer. RPC...
You might think more than enough design books exist in the programming world already. In fact, there are so many that it makes sense to ask why you would read yet another. Is there really a need for yet another design book? In fact, there is a greater need than ever before, and Practical API Design: Confessions of a Java Framework...
