- A business requirement defines what the business believes to be important for the success of a project.
- The Smart client is deployed through a Web browser but runs it as a Windows application on a client’s computer.
- Use the appropriate criteria to evaluate the requirements for an application.
- The available ASP.NET client technologies are standard browser-based client, AJAX-enabled client, smart client, Microsoft office client, and Windows mobile client.
- Choose the appropriate security requirement with respect to security.
- An ASP.NET application can be divided into three logical layers: User Interface, Middle Tier, and Database layers.
- UML class diagram is a static structure that represents classes and relationships between the classes.
- Define relationships between entities so that the database can ensure that the data stored in the database is consistent and integral.
- The strings, numbers, date and time, and Boolean data types are used to determine the manner in which they are to be stored in a specific schema.
- Use the DROP TABLE Table_Name statement to remove a table from a database, commit all pending transactions, and drop all indexes that are based on the table.
- Use the TRUNCATE TABLE Table_Name statement to truncate a table.
- Use the Data Definition Language to create a new database on a database server.
- The UPDATE statement is a Data Manipulation Language (DML) statement, which is used to change the values of specified columns in one or more rows in a table or view.
- Use the ALTER TABLE [Table name] DISABLE VALIDATE PRIMARY KEY; statement to disable a constraint.
- Create a database trigger and fire it when an INSERT statement is issued on a table.
- The ON UPDATE CASCADE constraint specifies that if an attempt is made to update a primary key value in a row, the value for the foreign key referencing the key column will also be updated with the same value.
- Triggers are special classes of stored procedures that are defined to execute automatically when an UPDATE, INSERT, or DELETE statement is issued against a table.
- Use the ORDER BY clause to perform the following operations:
- Listing all the sales person’s identification numbers
- Sales amount
- Sales dates

Fundamental Object-Oriented Concepts
In Java, a narrowing conversion is also known as an explicit type conversion or casting.
A byte can represent values between -128 to 127.
An array, in Java, is an ordered collection of primitives, object references, or other arrays. All the elements of an array must be of the same type, except in case of polymorphism.
Array elements are initialized to default values, wherever they are created.
The increment operator can be used in either of the two forms given below:
- Prefix form: In the prefix form, it appears before the operand. For example, ++a;
- Postfix form: In the postfix form, it appears after the operand. For example, a ++;
Numeric promotions are used to convert the operands in a numeric expression to a common type before an operation is performed between the operands.
In Java, there are two kinds of numeric promotions as follows:
- Unary numeric promotion
- Binary numeric promotion

Microsoft has released a new three-tiered certification hierarchy. It consists of three series and four credentials that introduce an entry-level Technology Series composed of the “Technology Specialist” credential, a Professional Series composed of the “IT Professional” and “Professional Developer” credentials, and the Master Series composed of the “Master” credential. There also exists a new Architect Series composed of the “Microsoft Certified Architect” program, which consists of a Review Board interview.
Technology Series (MCTS)
The Technology Specialist certifications enable professionals to target specific technologies, and are generally the first step toward the Professional-level certifications. There are currently 20 MCTS certifications, which can be roughly grouped into the following specializations, each requiring certain examinations to be passed:

With the exception of Obsolete Certifications, Microsoft generally offers upgrade paths, which allow a person holding a previous generation certification to upgrade to the current generation paths by sitting upgrade exams. Typically this is a single normal exam, usually consisting of a mixture of questions from the composite exams making up the current certification path. Using this upgrade feature, professionals in the field can maintain their certification standards without having to start from scratch every few years.
With the introduction of the Professional Series your MCTS, MCITP, or MCPD certifications will retire when Microsoft discontinues mainstream support for the related technology. Typically, mainstream support is discontinued 7 to 10 years after the initial product release. When support ends, your related certification will retire.
Microsoft’s initial communications about the Professional Series certifications was announced that a “refresh” or recertification of the MCITP and MCPD credentials would be required within three years. This policy has changed. To address the needs of the worldwide customer base, the updated policy is to retire a certification when mainstream support for the related technology retires. There is no action required from you if you earned a Professional Series certification before the policy change; the updated policy applies to your certification, which will be valid until mainstream support for the related technology retires.
Technology Specialist Series (MCTS) Upgrades
There are no upgrade paths that lead only to an MCTS certification. All prior certification paths lead to either an MCPD or MCITS certification, which will indirectly confer the relevant prerequisite MCTS certification on the successful candidate.
