Simulation Techniques and Applications

This workshop will introduce the Java Abstract Window Toolkit. We will provide a simple framework for applet development that encompasses placement of components, display of graphical elements, and event handling. We will also introduce the Model-View-Control paradigm and apply it to the applet context, thereby bringing an important tool from object-oriented methodology to this area and laying the foundation for a study of the newer Java Swing package. Participants should be familiar with the Java programming language, though presumaly not the AWT. In addition, some familiarity with object-oriented language concepts including classes, methods, messages, inheritance, interfaces, and polymorphism (method overriding) is required.
