.NET System Management Services

TuE INTRODUCTION oF .NET Framework is, perhaps, one of the most exciting events in the history of software development. Modern, sophisticated, powerful, and sometimes overwhelming, .NET is destined to change the way Wmdows appli- cations are developed and deployed forever. This new platform is gaining worldwide acceptance by the hour, and today, shortly after its official release to the general public, it has already captured the hearts and souls of many profes- sionals throughout the software development industry. The Book Rapidly growing interest in .NET development has given birth to many new books that are designed to cover various aspects of .NET Framework and the lan- guages and tools associated with it. Unfortunately, not all the components and services of the new platform have received equal coverage in these texts. For instance, the new and enhanced .NET languages, such as C# and VB.NET, have attracted the most attention. As a result, the current book market seems to be reaching its saturation point with respect to .NET programming language books.
