Databases, Information Systems, and Peer-to-Peer Computing
Peer-to-peer (P2P) computing promises to o?er exciting new possibilities in d- tributed information processing and database technologies. The realization of this promise lies fundamentally in the availability of enhanced services such as structured ways for classifying and registering shared information, veri?cation and certi?cation of information, content-distributed schemes and quality of c- tent, security features, information discovery and accessibility, interoperation and composition of active information services, and ?nally market-based me- anisms to allow cooperative and non-cooperative information exchanges. The P2P paradigm lends itself to constructing large-scale complex, adaptive...
Conceptual Modeling -- ER 2003
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 22nd International Conference on Conceptual Modeling, ER 2003, held in Chicago, IL, USA in October 2003. The 38 revised full papers presented together with abstracts of 4 invited talks and 7 industrial presentations were carefully reviewed and selected from 153 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on systems and data integration; workflows, patterns, and ontologies; metamodeling and methodology; view and XQuery approaches; web application modeling and development; requirements and evolution; data warehousing and OLAP; conceptual modeling foundations; data mining; innovative approaches; queries; and schema and ontology integration.
Ontologies and Databases
Ontologies and Databases brings together in one place important contributions and up-to-date research results in this fast moving area. Ontologies and Databases serves as an excellent reference, providing insight into some of the most challenging research issues in the field.
Databases, Information Systems, and Peer-to-Peer Computing
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed postproceedings of the 3rd and 4th International Workshop on Databases, Information Systems and Peer-to-Peer Computing, DBISP2P 2005 and DBISP2P 2006, held in Trondheim, Norway, in August 2005 and in Seoul, Korea, in September 2006, as satellite events of VLDB, the International Conference on Very Large Data Bases.
Database Systems for Advanced Applications
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Database Systems for Advanced Applications, DASFAA 2004, held in Jeju Island, Korea in March 2004. The 60 revised full papers and 18 revised short papers presented together with 2 invited articles were carefully reviewed and seleted from 272 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on access methods, query processing in XML, security and integrity, query processing in temporal and spatial databases, semi-structured databases, knowledge discovery in temporal and spatial databases, XML and multimedia and knowledge discovery on the Web, query processing and optimization, classification and clustering, Web search, mobile databases, parallel and distributed databases, and multimedia databases.
Agents and Peer-to-Peer Computing
Peer-to-peer (P2P) computing is currently attracting enormous public attention, spurred by the popularity of file-sharing systems such as Napster, Gnutella, Morpheus, Kaza, and several others. In P2P systems, a very large number of autonomous computing nodes, the peers, rely on each other for services. P2P networks are emerging as a new distributed computing paradigm because of their potential to harness the computing power and the storage capacity of the hosts composing the network, and because they realize a completely open decentralized environment where everybody can join in autonomously. Although researchers working on distributed computing, multiagent systems, databases, and networks h...
Pathology and Law
Almost all pathologists face legal issues when dealing with the specimens they work with on a day-to-day basis, whether it involves quality control and assurance in handling the specimens, facing the possibility of malpractice suits, or serving as an expert witness in a trial. Written in an easy to read, conversational tone, with a dose of good humor, this book fills the need for a handbook that discusses the full spectrum of legal issues that many pathologists face, written from a pathologist's point of view. Organized in 12 user-friendly chapters, the book begins with a comparison of Law and Medicine and explains the basics of the American Legal System. It continues with discussions of the...
Smart Data Pricing
A comprehensive text addressing the high demand for network, cloud, and content services through cutting-edge research on data pricing and business strategies Smart Data Pricing tackles the timely issue of surging demand for network, cloud, and content services and corresponding innovations in pricing these services to benefit consumers, operators, and content providers. The pricing of data traffic and other services is central to the core challenges of network monetization, growth sustainability, and bridging the digital divide. In this book, experts from both academia and industry discuss all aspects of smart data pricing research and development, including economic analyses, system develo...
