Product Description
Product Description
Practical .NET 2.0 Networking Projects demonstrates some of the key networking technologies that are being made easily accessible through .NET Framework 2.0. It discusses communication between wired machines and between networks and mobile devices. The book teaches you about the technologies by walking you through sample projects in a straightforward and direct way.
The book begins by discussing background theory so youll get comfortable with the layout of the .NET Framework and Compact Framework from a networking perspective. Then youll use the APIs within these frameworks to build a variety of cutting-edge networking applications that cover everything from Bluetooth and RFID communication to sockets programming and chat servers. Youll build working examples for each project, which you can also customize and use for your own purposes. The featured projects cover
- Basic introduction to network programming in .NET 2.0
- Sockets programming
- Serial communication
- Bluetooth and GPS
- Infrared networking to mobile devices
- RFID

Good overview of a number of serial interfaces techniques
10 Aug 2007
Format:Paperback
Mr. Lee's book is a good refresher for those who are looking to brush up on their serial interface communications .NET programming skills. When I think of networking, the things that come to mind are sockets, servers and clients or, in other words, communicating between multiple systems through the Ethernet, but this book goes beyond this. I would like to have seen more depth the areas of sockets (Chapter 1) and serial communication (Chapter 2). Instead, we see more of an introduction to these and many more serial-based interfaces, such as RFID, Bluetooth, GPS, infrared and fingerprint recognition. Still the book is very informative and well worth reading. For the hobbyists among us, the author offers a number of low cost methods to investigate each interface method. Thank you Mr. Lee and I look forward to your advanced user edition.

Good Stuff!
26 April 2007
Format:Paperback
Whether you're a hobbyist looking for a fun time, or a professional working on your latest project, Practical .NET 2.0 Networking Projects has relevant and timely info for home and office.
This book walks the reader through several projects, detailing hardware setup and code for integrating with: a GPS receiver, a fingerprint reader, IR devices, RFID, webcam, and an ultrasonic sensor. While the book is a fun read and feels geared towards hobbyists, its projects have definite applications in the professional world as well.
One of the most interesting projects in the book details an RFID attendance application using the $39 Parallax RFID Reader and $2 Parallax Tag. Lee uses the $119 Javelin Demo Board to hook the reader to his PC but also mentions cheaper solutions. It's amazing how mainstream and inexpensive this technology is.
