| | Java Network Programming FAQ |
 | | Not to be confused with an O'Reilly book of the same name, Java Network Programming covers a wide range of topics, from datagrams to sockets, from message streams and encryption to remote method invocation (RMI), CORBA, Java servlets, and a heavy dose of cryptography and security. |
 | | Remote method invocation (RMI), is a mechanism for invoking an object's methods, even though the object is executing on a foreign Java Virtual Machine (JVM). |
 | | Apart from the obvious (they are written in the Java programming language, a big plus after all), servlet based applications are far easier to write than CGI scripts. |
