The more effort you show in trying to solve problems yourself, the more helpful answers you are going to get.

For example, Googling "webservice endpoint interface" or reading the free J2EE 1.4 manual (that has been linked to you in your post requesting materials) could answer some of these. Similarly, home/remote/local interfaces are very basic concepts and in any article/book on EJB 2.1.

Since I'm feeling extra helpful, I will give one hint on the first question:

1) Are you only allowed to pick one answer? Hint, there are more correct answers.

In my earlier post I asked which *ONE* question you would like to explore. Preferably with something that shows you have spent some time investigating it. Otherwise, we are back to it sounding like you are asking someone to do your homework for you.

who may feel difficult reading this and you may not get answers, it is just suggestion

It's not that I can't read your post, it's that I don't see answers. Now if you posted a smaller number of questions, all of which had answers, I'd be more likely to help. As it stands, you are asking people to read a long post - most of which has "answer my question for me" type answers. Maybe this isn't your intent, but that's how it is coming across. Especially since most people who have long question lists have them for homework/interviews. Someone who is just learning is more likely to have one (or a couple related) questions.

Remember than anyone posting here is doing so in their free time. As such, they are likely to spend a limited time on each thread. All of the time I spent on this thread has been looking for the question. There are three things you can do to make it more likely to get an answer:
1) Ask less questions in the post.
2) Show you have tried to answer them - maybe a link to the internet supporting your answer
3) Acknowledge feedback. In this thread (and one of your other ones), you have been directed to the J2EE 1.4 tutorial which contains many of these answers. I still haven't seen any indication that you have looked there for answers.

See http://faq.javaranch.com/java/ShowSomeEffort for more on this.

Now, I have given you a clue on #1 which is that it is only partially correct. Which means that choice is correct, but not the only correct answer. To find out why, you would look up the definitions for all 5 choices. Have you done that? What did it say? What left you confused? I'm happy to work with you on understanding things. However, I'm going to do it one question at a time and only if you show that you are trying to answer the questions rather than just wait for someone to tell you what they are.

Hi Jeanne and Ranchers,
Could you please corrrect me if im wrong for the below set of questions.Below are the set of questions of Brain bench Mock exams,and since im new to EJB 2.1 please help me out.

#1> Which one of the following is not a Session bean?
a>Stateful Session bean
b>Stateless Session bean
c>CMP Entity bean

#2> An Application has 3000 tickers and each ticker has 20 ratios(double values),How would you optimize the performance of this application. ???----->Can any rancher tell me how to approach this problem.???

#3> what is an Webservice Endpoint Interface ?
My initial Analysis:
An Endpoint interface or Service Endpoint interface, is a term used in Java Platform, Enterprise Edition when exposing Enterprise JavaBean as web service.

A web service client accesses a stateless session bean through the bean's web service endpoint interface. Like a remote interface, a web service endpoint interface defines the business methods of the bean.

In contrast to a remote interface, a web service endpoint interface is not accompanied by a home interface, which defines the bean's life-cycle methods.

b> Enterprise Tier
c> Business Tier
