Abstract

This paper addresses the justification, design, and implementation of a computer science undergraduate course in ecommerce. Our course starts with the basics of web pages (HTML, HTTP, and hyperlinks) then introduces simple (non-database) servlets, and concludes with n-tier web-based systems that include servlets, a middle-tier, a data access layer, and a database. We use Tomcat (Servlet API enabled server) and MySQL (JDBC enabled) database. Our paper includes a discussion of ecommerce issues, course design, syllabus, implementation tools and technologies, student projects, and our experience in teaching this course.
