performance and scalability, as well as configuration flexibility, is one of
the leading products of the application server generation.
For the experienced J2EE developer, this book details how to develop, deploy
and manage enterprise applications for version 5.0 of IBM's WebSphere Application
Server. Over the course of the book a large-scale e-commerce application is
developed that demonstrates the use of WebSphere Application Developer Studio
for the creation of J2EE applications, as well as functionality of the application
server, including Web Services, Application Profiles, and Enterprise Workflows.
The book also addresses other enterprise-level issues such as security, deployment
topology and server administration.
This book is written by IBM's WebSphere Experts and Architects: Rob High is
the Chief Architect for WebSphere foundation; Eric Herness is the Senior Architect
for WAS Enterprise; Jim Knutson is the Senior Architect for WAS J2EE; Chris
Vignola is the Lead Architect for WAS for zOS; Tim Francis the Senior Architect
for WebSphere Studio Application Developer; and Kim Rochat is an Architect for
WAS Web Services.

About the Authors
Tim Francis is a Senior Technical Staff Member, Tech Lead, and
Development Manager working on the WebSphere Studio product at the IBM Canada
Toronto Lab. He has been one of the lead architects for the Eclipse-based WebSphere
Studio since it was first conceived, and has played a key role in its evolution
and development since then. Tim currently leads the development of the WebSphere
deployment tools, including the EJB deployment codegen and the server tools
unit test environment.
Previously Tim has led development teams for a number of different products,
including VisualAge for Java, and the Component Broker Object Builder. Tim holds
a Bachelor of Applied Science in Electrical Engineering and Master of Mathematics
in Computer Science, both from the University of Waterloo (Canada).
Eric Herness is a Distinguished Engineer with IBM in Rochester,
Minnesota. He is currently the lead architect for WebSphere Application Server
Enterprise. Eric has also been involved in implementing the EJB 2.0 specification
in the base application server, especially those parts that enable container-managed
persistence.
Eric has been involved in object tech nology and servers that host objects since
the late 1980's. In the early years, he drove work on object analysis and design
methods, defining how to practically leverage these concepts in large-scale
software projects within and outside IBM. Eric played a lead role in the implementation
of Component Broker and in the associated component model definition work that
planted many of seeds we now see flourishing in J2EE.
Eric holds a Masters in Business Administration from the Carlson school of Management
at the University of Minnesota. He has also been an adjunct computer science
faculty member at Winona State University in Rochester, MN.
Rob High Jr. is a Distinguished Engineer and the Chief Architect
for the WebSphere Application Server product family. He has 26 years of programming
experience and has worked with distributed, object-oriented, component-based
transaction monitors for the last eight years, including SOMObject Server and
Component Broker prior to WebSphere. He helped to define, and then later refine
the basic concepts of container-managed component technology, which is now intrinsic
to the EJB specification and implemented by WebSphere and other J2EE application
servers.
Rob started his career with IBM in 1981 in Charlotte, NC. During his 12 years
in Charlotte, Rob primarily worked in Finance Industry as a developer on the
4700 controller, in 4730 and 4736 ATM microcode development with responsibility
for the device access methods, led the development of Application Foundation
PC software for Retail Branch computing, and culminating in responsibility for
the Financial Application Architecture. He moved to Austin, TX in 1993 to lead
IBM's participation in the Open Software Foundation's Object Management Framework,
which lead eventually to his involvement in SOMObjects, and later Component
Broker and WebSphere.
Rob has a bachelor degree in Computer and Information Science from the University
of California at Santa Cruz. He graduated from UCSC in 1981.
Jim Knutson is WebSphere's J2EE Architect. He has been responsible
for delivering EJB and J2EE technology in IBM products such as Component Broker
and WebSphere since the technology's inception and his accomplishments include
the first CORBA-based EJB server.
Prior to this, Jim led IBM's BeanExtender project, a rapid development environment
for JavaBeans component-based distributed applications, and has been building
distributed object systems for over ten years.
Kim Rochat is a Senior Software Engineer at IBM's WebSphere development
lab in Austin, TX. He was the project leader for the Web Services Technology
Preview and participated in the JSR-101 and JSR-109 standards efforts. Prior
to WebSphere Web Services, he implemented Java and CORBA support for WebSphere's
predecessor, Component Broker. He has worked for a number of companies in his
27 years in the industry, and joined IBM in 1994.
Chris Vignola is a senior software engineer with IBM in Poughkeepsie,
NY. He is presently a lead architect for the WebSphere Application Server product,
specializing in WebSphere integration on the z/OS and OS/390 platform and systems
management. His experience with WebSphere includes work in the areas of EJB
persistence, EJB Container, and JNDI. Chris has been working on distributed,
object-oriented, transaction systems since 1995, including work on Distributed
SOMObjects and Component Broker, where he lead the team that first brought WebSphere
EJB technology to the z/OS and OS/390 platform. His prior experience includes
ten years developing the MVS operating system, where he worked on operations
console, sysplex, and workload manager. Chris joined IBM in 1984 after graduating
from the State University of New York with a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer
Science. Chris lives and works in New York state, where he resides with his
wife and three children.
