Virtual credit card processing system

ABSTRACT

The Institute of Technology Blanchardstown decided in 1999 to teach Java to our computing students from 1^st year. Java is now being used to support the practical component of all our subjects. This paper presents a project implemented by two of our third year students as a case study of what students can achieve after 3 years of Java programming. The virtual credit card processing system is an e-business system which provides a secure and universal mechanism for making purchases over the Internet. The system uses Remote Method Invocation(RMI), Java Server Pages(JSP), Java Servlets and Java Database Connectivity(JDBC).
