Rangsit University, M.S.I.T. Program

ITE695 Special Topic in Web Services and .NET

Section 81, Saturdays, 13.00 – 16.00 HRS

General Information

Course Description and Goal

A transformation has been occurring in the architectural model for computer-based application systems. This model centers on component development and deployment as represented by ‘Web Services.’ This course will explore concepts related to Web Services such as the ability to integrate code written in different programming languages and the emerging platforms, architectures and technologies (such as XML, SOAP and WDSL) that have arisen to support this new view of software deployment.

Emphasis is placed on development and use of Web Services, which are data centric; therefore, students will learn techniques for manipulating database and XML data. Topics covered are .NET technologies (ASP.NET and C#), object-oriented programming, server-side scripting and programming, advanced database programming with ADO.NET, state management in the web environment, and distributed architecture and web services, and .NET security. Basic programming experiences are expected.
