Java revolution reveals an exciting trend on network computing where computers become peripherals to the Internet and the Web. Java is not only a programming language, but provides a means for a number of Internet-based services such as real-time financial trading, interactive shopping, networked database access, and simulation-oriented education.

For this purpose, we focus on real-time financial database access and remote medical diagnosis. Such remarkable applications are progressively expanded in a world-wide level.
