The Developing Applications With the Java SE Platform course provides students with practical experience in designing a vertical solution for a distributed, multi-tier application. Students use graphical user interface (GUI) design principles and network communications capabilities to code a functional Java application that interacts with a networked database server. The blended approach of designing and developing programs for applications has been clearly emphasized in this course. New features that blend with the special IDE GUI building capabilities, such as Matisse, are covered. The Java Management Extensions (JMX) and the JUnit tool are also covered. The course features the Java Platform, Standard Edition 6 (Java SE 6) technology and utilizes the Java SE Development Kit 6 (JDK 6) product. The students perform the course lab exercises using the NetBeans Integrated Development Environment (IDE) 5.5.
