This course provides the student with the necessary background knowledge of software technologies used for creating Internet services. Topics include: classical Internet protocols and services (e-mail, FTP, Whois, X.500, Usenet News, Gopher), WWW technology (HTML language, CGI applications, WWW servers, database interfaces, CSS style sheets, XML,X SL, XQL languages, JavaScript, WAP, VRML worlds), Java programming language (Java applets, Java servlets, JSP), Internet multimedia. Discussions on encryption techniques and character encoding are also included.
