Information Modeling and Relational Databases
Information Modeling and Relational Databases, Second Edition, provides an introduction to ORM (Object-Role Modeling)and much more. In fact, it is the only book to go beyond introductory coverage and provide all of the in-depth instruction you need to transform knowledge from domain experts into a sound database design. This book is intended for anyone with a stake in the accuracy and efficacy of databases: systems analysts, information modelers, database designers and administrators, and programmers. Terry Halpin, a pioneer in the development of ORM, blends conceptual information with practical instruction that will let you begin using ORM effectively as soon as possible. Supported by examp...
Database Modeling and Design
Database Modeling and Design, Fifth Edition, focuses on techniques for database design in relational database systems. This extensively revised fifth edition features clear explanations, lots of terrific examples and an illustrative case, and practical advice, with design rules that are applicable to any SQL-based system. The common examples are based on real-life experiences and have been thoroughly class-tested. This book is immediately useful to anyone tasked with the creation of data models for the integration of large-scale enterprise data. It is ideal for a stand-alone data management course focused on logical database design, or a supplement to an introductory text for introductory database management. - In-depth detail and plenty of real-world, practical examples throughout - Loaded with design rules and illustrative case studies that are applicable to any SQL, UML, or XML-based system - Immediately useful to anyone tasked with the creation of data models for the integration of large-scale enterprise data
Data Mining
Data Mining, Second Edition, describes data mining techniques and shows how they work. The book is a major revision of the first edition that appeared in 1999. While the basic core remains the same, it has been updated to reflect the changes that have taken place over five years, and now has nearly double the references. The highlights of this new edition include thirty new technique sections; an enhanced Weka machine learning workbench, which now features an interactive interface; comprehensive information on neural networks; a new section on Bayesian networks; and much more. This text is designed for information systems practitioners, programmers, consultants, developers, information technology managers, specification writers as well as professors and students of graduate-level data mining and machine learning courses. - Algorithmic methods at the heart of successful data mining—including tried and true techniques as well as leading edge methods - Performance improvement techniques that work by transforming the input or output
Physical Database Design
The rapidly increasing volume of information contained in relational databases places a strain on databases, performance, and maintainability: DBAs are under greater pressure than ever to optimize database structure for system performance and administration. Physical Database Design discusses the concept of how physical structures of databases affect performance, including specific examples, guidelines, and best and worst practices for a variety of DBMSs and configurations. Something as simple as improving the table index design has a profound impact on performance. Every form of relational database, such as Online Transaction Processing (OLTP), Enterprise Resource Management (ERP), Data Min...
Geographic Information Science
This section gives a description of notions used throughout this study. Current achievements in developing action-centered ontologies are also discussed. 2.1 Ontologies In the context of information extraction and retrieval, different kinds of ontologies can be distinguished [15]: • Top-level ontologies describe very general concepts like space and time, not depending on a particular domain, • Domain ontologies and task ontologies describe the vocabulary related to a generic domain or kind of task, detailing the terms used in the top-level ontology, • Application ontologies describe the concepts that depend on the particular domain and task within a specific activity. Several investiga...
Advances in Spatial and Temporal Databases
The refereed proceedings of the 8th International Symposium on Spatial and Temporal Databases, SSTD 2003, held at Santorini Island, Greece in July 2003. The 28 revised full papers presented together with a keynote paper were carefully reviewed and selected from 105 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on access methods, advanced query processing, data mining and data warehousing, distance-based queries, mobility and moving points management, modeling and languages, similarity processing, systems and implementation issues.
On the Move to Meaningful Internet Systems 2005
This book constitutes the joint refereed proceedings of nine international workshops held as part of OTM 2005 in Agia Napa, Cyprus in October/November 2005.The 145 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 268 submissions. Topics addressed are agents, Web services and ontologies merging (AWeSOMe 2005), context-aware mobile systems (CAMS 2005), grid computing and its application to data analysis (GADA 2005), inter-organizational systems and interoperability of enterprise software and applications (MIOS+INTEROP 2005), object-role modeling (ORM 2005), a PHD symposium (PhDS 2005), semantic-based geographical information systems (SeBGIS 2005), Web semantics (SWWS 2005), and ontologies, semantics and e-learning (WOSE 2005).
On the Move to Meaningful Internet Systems 2006: OTM 2006 Workshops
This two-volume set LNCS 4277/4278 constitutes the refereed proceedings of 14 international workshops held as part of OTM 2006 in Montpellier, France in October/November 2006. The 191 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 493 submissions to the workshops. The first volume begins with 26 additional revised short or poster papers of the OTM 2006 main conferences.
Transactional Information Systems
This book describes the theory, algorithms, and practical implementation techniques behind transaction processing in information technology systems.
Advances in Spatial Databases
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Symposium on Spatial Databases, SSD'99, held in Hong Kong, China in July 1999. The 17 revised full papers presented were carefully selected from 55 submissions. Also included are short papers corresponding to three invited talks and industrial applications presentations. The papers are organized in chapters on multi-resolution and scale, indexing, moving objects and spatio-temporal data, spatial mining and classification, spatial join, uncertainty and geological hypermaps, and industrial and visionary application track.
