Design and Architecture of Duke's Tutoring
Duke's Tutoring is a web application that incorporates several Java EE technologies. It ex-
poses both a main interface (for students, guardians, and tutoring center staff) and an ad-
ministration interface (for staff to maintain the system). The business logic for both inter-
faces is provided by enterprise beans. The enterprise beans use the Java Persistence API to
create and store the application's data in the database.
Figure 26-1
illustrates the architec-
ture of the application.
