Aims
Learning by the students the fundamental, low and middle level, technologies for implement distributed applications. All these technologies are Java based, especially by j2sdk1.4.0 şi j2sdkee1.4 distridutions. Them are directly used in little and medium distributed applications. The middleware - high level - technologies use these technologies in them.
