A Network of Objects Thomas C. Tsai What do you get when you combine the benefits of client/server computing with the power of object-oriented programming? Lower application development costs, broader access to data, more reliable decision support, and much more. That is the fundamental premise of A Network of Objects--an important new addition to the literature on client/server computing and business process reengineering. This comprehensive text gives you the benefits of hiring a full-time rightsizing consultant, without sacrificing control over your systems, and your budget. A Network of Objects provides the strategic roadmap that IS professionals need to execute a smooth transition to the client/server architecture. It includes cogent discussions of the technologies and products that are shaping the corporate computing environment today. And it offers a potent new model for object-oriented application development--to eliminate the barriers to data access, integrity, presentation, and analysis that hinder most client/server networks today. Topics covered include:

Objective insights into the benefits of the most common network topologies and operating systems--with real-world implementation strategies
A detailed introduction to the seven-layer OSI reference model architecture, and detailed comparisons of various commercial network products
An analysis of the benefits of C++ programming in the network environment, including numerous C++ examples
An in-depth review of the key utilities--file server, relational database server, transaction manager, directory server, and message server--that are required for mission critical client/server applications.
Plus, a detailed plan for migrating from legacy systems and applications to the client/server architecture, with advice on every step from architecture analysis to application roll-out
