Web Services are the building blocks for platform-independent distributed application architecture. Leveraging open Internet standards such as HTTP, XML and SOAP, Web Services make it possible to build system integrations and data exchange regardless of the language or development environment. Microsoft's .NET platform provides the best support for building and deploying Web Services, bar none.
This online course focuses on creating Web Services with .NET, and in the process educates you on related technologies. You'll learn how to:
- design, architect implement, and deploy Web Services
- control object serialization through attributes
- manage XML payloads through SOAP extensions in a variety of scenarios
You'll also learn how to consume Web Services building .NET clients, and we'll compare this to how other languages would consume your .NET services. |

There is an abundance of data that is rapidly being generated. Intelligent software tools are increasingly needed to process and filter the data, detect new patterns and similarities. Large databases of information create great opportunities for the application of data mining methods. Conventional computer science algorithms even though useful are not powerful enough in solving many of the knowledge discovery and other problems.
Data mining approaches (e.g., neural networks, decision trees, regression trees, clustering) are ideally suited for domains characterized by the presence of large amounts of noisy data, and the absence of general theories or hypothesis about the data. The fundamental idea behind these approaches is to learn automatically from the data, creating a theory, hypothesis or a model, through a process of inference, model fitting, or learning from examples. |
