In this chapter, you'll learn about OOP (Object-Oriented Programming) and how it relates to JavaScript. As an ASP.NET developer, you probably have some experience working with objects, and you may even be familiar with concepts such as inheritance.

Data Modeling

Information systems and computer sciences use data modeling to manage and organize large quantities of structured and unstructured data. A data model describes the information to be stored in vast data management systems like relational databases. Data models do not include unstructured data such as email messages, word processing documents, digital video, audio or image files. Furthermore, data modeling establishes implicit and explicit constrains and limitations of the structured data. A data model is formally known as data model theory.

MainFrame

The term �MainFrame� brings to mind a giant room of electronic parts that is a computer, referring to the original CPU cabinet in a computer of the mid-1960�s. Today, Mainframe refers to a class of ultra-reliable large and medium-scale servers designed for carrier-class and enterprise-class systems operations. Mainframes are costly, due to the support of symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) and dozens of central processors existing within in a single system. Mainframes are highly scalable. Through the addition of clusters, high-speed caches and volumes of memory, they connect to terabyte holding data subsystems.

VBScript

Microsoft�s VBScript (Visual Basic Script) is a scripting language used to create dynamic and interactive web pages. VBScript is a subset of Visual Basic, a more developed scripting language, and is commonly used on the Web as a client side scripting language and server-side processing in ASPs (Active Server Pages). The interpreted script language VBScript is designed for Web Browser interpretation. VBScript is similar to scripting languages, including; Netscape�s JavaScript, Sun Microsystem�s Tcl, IBM�s Rexx and the UNIX-derived Perl. These scripting languages have been designed to be used as an extension for html language. A Web Browser receives the scripts for websites through web page documents that are then parsed and processed.

AJAX

Asynchronous JavaScript And XML�, otherwise known as AJAX, is a programming language that allows a web page to receive miniscule amounts of data from a web server without reloading the complete web page. Ajax works together with JavaScript. AJAX permits Web pages to be dynamic, interactive and behave as local applications. This combination of features is known as �rich client� applications. AJAX is similar to Dynamic HTML and allows synchronous and asynchronous access to remote services by using the XMLHTTPRequest object.

UML

UML (Unified Modeling Language) is an object-oriented analysis and design language defined by the Object Management Group (OMG). UML is used in the software engineering field and describes a programming language used as a graphical designation to create an abstract model that can be used in a system (UML model).

jQuery

What exactly is jQuery anyway?� Well simply put jQuery is an extensive and vast JavaScript library that offers a tier of functions that are meant to ease and simplify normally complicated JavaScript development. Learning jQuery: Better Interaction Design and Web Development with Simple JavaScript Techniques is a wonderful introduction to JQuery framework. The book offers many informative code samples and extremely helpful tutorials about how to make JQuery work for you and how to deal with common issues as well as not so common issues such as; acquiring information with the use of AJAX and manipulating tubular data.

Web 2.0

The term �Web 2.0� refers to the idea of the �New Internet�, or the second wave of the World Wide Web. Web 2.0 is not a specific application or technology, but explains two paradigm shifts within Information Technology, �user-generated content� and �thin client computing�.

OOPS

Object-oriented programming (OOP) is a computer science term used to characterize a programming language that began development in the 1960�s. The term �object-oriented programming� was originally coined by Xerox PARC to designate a computer application that describes the methodology of using objects as the foundation for computation. By the 1980�s, OOP rose to prominence as the programming language of choice, exemplified by the success of C++. Currently, OOPs such as Java, J2EE, C++, C#, Visual Basic.NET, Python and JavaScript are popular OOP programming languages that any career-oriented Software Engineer or developer should be familiar with.
