Overview

What is a Computer?
From the Webster’s New World Dictionary:
1. A person who computes.
2. A device used for computing (an
electronic machine which by means of
stored instructions and information,
perform rapid, often complex calculations
or compiles, correlates, and selects data).
What is a program and what is programming?
Programs:
stored computer instructions for data
processing.
Programming
= Data Structures + Algorithms

What is Windows Programming?
Windows Programming:
Program for the Windows platform?
Program for the Internet on the
Windows platform!
What is .NET?
.Net is a framework for developing OSplatform-independent, programminglanguage-independent, web-enabled,
distributed applications.
Traditional Compilation (Linking)

Common Binary Code?
OS-Independent Code:
Intermediate Languages
The trend to support OS-independent binary
code is to compile the source code into the binary
format of an intermediate language.
And to provide an interpreter for the
intermediate language on each OS to translate the
binary code of the intermediate language into the
native binary code of the OS.

Program statements are interpreted one at a time during the run-time.
JIT Compiler
An interpreter interprets intermediate code one
line at a time. Slow execution.
A JIT (Just-In-Time) Compiler compiles the
complete code all at once just into native binary
code before execution. Faster execution.

JIT Compilation in .NET
All MSIL code are JIT-compiled to native binary
code before execution. No run-time interpretation,
faster execution.
A Common Language?
.NET Common Language Runtime
To make .NET language independent, CLR (Common Language
Runtime) is defined as the runtime environment.
CLR defines CTS (Common Type System) which should be
followed by all languages to be used in the .NET framework.
Syntax: int, for, ..
Semantics: multiple inheritance is not allowed in CTS
The code that follows CTS standard is called managed code.
regular C++ supports multiple inheritance
managed C++ does not support multiple inheritance

CLI (Common Language Infrastructure)
CLR/CTS for Everyone?
CLI : Common Language Infrastructure
A specification defines an environment for multiple
high-level languages to be used on different computer
platforms.
Created by Microsoft based on .NET, standardized by
MS, Intel, HP and others, ratified by ECMA and ISO.
.NET is an implementation of CLI for desktop systems.
.NET Compact Framework is an implementation of CLI
for portable devices.
Open Source implementations: Mono development
platform (Novell), Portable .NET (dotGNU)

Even though, CLI/CTS/CLR can make a program
written in any language to run on any platform, the
entire program (including all libraries used) has to be
on the platform before running.
Can we have part of a program on one computer and
another part of the same program on another
computer?
Distributed Computing. A program is divided into
multiple parts and different parts are distribute on
different computers.
e.g. virtual surgery.
Web Enabled & Distributed
.Net is Web-enabled and Distributed
To run distributed code on the web, we need a
standard way to register the code and a standard
way to access the code.
Registration:
UDDI Registry: Universal Description,
Discovery, and Integration.
Access:
SOAP: Simple Object Access Protocol
WSDL: Web Service Description Language

Web Service Example
.NET Passport (one login for the whole Internet)
www.passport.com (run by Microsoft)
www.ubid.com (An online auction shop using
Passport web service)
Windows Live (one location to get all you need
from the Internet)
http://get.live.com/ (run by Microsoft)
Windows Live ID is replacing Passport ID.
.NET Framework Compositions
Common Language Runtime (CLR ): provides
the runtime environment for MSIL code.
.Net Framework Class Library (FCL) : provides
standard code for building common .Net
applications.
Classes in FCL are grouped into namespaces.

.Net Framework Class Library
The most important groups are “the gang of four”:
• Windows Forms: for building GUIs for .Net
applications, language independent.
• ASP.NET: Active Server Pages for .Net, for
building web-accessible applications.
• ADO.NET: ActiveX Data Objects for .Net, for
accessing data in a database.
• Enterprise Services: for accessing COM+
services (transactions, object pooling).
