This document discusses rapid application development in Java. It lists prerequisites like conditional statements, loops, variables and functions. It recommends using JDK 1.7 or later and NetBeans IDE 6 or later. Rapid application development allows working applications to be quickly delivered by reusing existing code rather than writing everything from scratch, focusing on speed of development and minimum effort. The session will cover frames, buttons, text fields, message boxes and processing text fields to create an interest calculating program. It also discusses how to deploy the created application and that the information was learned from online resources.
