HAVi Example By Example: Java Programming for Home Entertainment Devices
HAVi Example By Example Java Programming for Home Entertainment Devices Author:Simon Gibbs, Ravi Gauba, Ram Balaraman, Rodger Lea The new HAVi (Home Audio/Video Interoperability) standard will allow virtually any digital consumer electronics device or home appliance to communicate, supporting applications ranging from digital video to shared broadband Web access. HAVi Example by Example is the first practical, hands-on guide to HAVi. In this book, two leading Sony implemen... more »ters and HAVi standards community participants review every key element of the HAVi specification, providing extensive sample Java code and in-depth insight into HAVi's applications and planned evolution. This book introduces the HAVi software architecture, explains the concept of HAVi services, and shows how HAVi can be used to build portable, distributed applications optimized for a networked home environment. The book contains extensive Java sample code. It goes far beyond the specification, demonstrating both first-generation and future HAVi applications, and showing how HAVi can operate over high-speed IEEE 1394 (FireWireaA A ) connections. For all software designers and developers building applications for next-generation consumer-electronics devices.« less
