Approved Textbook List
The following list specifies the textbooks that are to be used for the courses in
the ICS Department. To ensure uniform course content and uniform assessment
throughout the Park system, the department has chosen one required textbook or one
set of required textbooks for each course.
The 2008 spring and summer terms were the phase-out period for books that were
approved in the past and are no longer approved. Thank you to all ICS teachers for
sticking with the more limited list of approved books starting with the Fall
2008 terms.

CS 322 - Web Programming II
The content of this course will probably be revised starting Fall 2009.
Thus, for now, we will continue to allow flexibility for the JSP book, and
teachers are allowed to choose one JSP book from the following list of JSP books.
Teachers and students are encouraged to use Park's arrr server for JSP and Park's kidd
server for ASP.NET.
Park's arrr server has JSP 2.X installed on it. The Bai and Steelman books refer to JSP 1.X,
which is doable, but less than ideal.
The Bergsten, Chopra, and Metlapalli books refer to JSP 2.X. Bergsten and Chopra are reference books
(without exercises, of course), and so are less than ideal.
Choose one JSP book:
-
Bai, JavaServer Pages, Course Technology, 2003, ISBN 0-619-06343-2.
-
Steelman, Murach's Java Servlets and JSP, Mike Murach & Associates, 2003,
