Description

This course will explore the more practical aspects of enabling E-commerce through the World Wide Web. By investigating the most popular technologies used by organizations to track inventory on-line, students will get hands-on experience implementing a Web-enabled system. This year's course will focus on incorporating environmental data (weather, hydrology, ocean circulation, marine biology, etc.) made available daily from the PRISM project active on the UW campus. Students will gain skills through rigorous use of four popular technical standards: HTML, XML, CGI, and SQL.
