Advanced Transaction Models and Architectures
Motivation Modem enterprises rely on database management systems (DBMS) to collect, store and manage corporate data, which is considered a strategic corporate re source. Recently, with the proliferation of personal computers and departmen tal computing, the trend has been towards the decentralization and distribution of the computing infrastructure, with autonomy and responsibility for data now residing at the departmental and workgroup level of the organization. Users want their data delivered to their desktops, allowing them to incor porate data into their personal databases, spreadsheets, word processing doc uments, and most importantly, into their daily tasks and activities. They want to...
Workflows for e-Science
This is a timely book presenting an overview of the current state-of-the-art within established projects, presenting many different aspects of workflow from users to tool builders. It provides an overview of active research, from a number of different perspectives. It includes theoretical aspects of workflow and deals with workflow for e-Science as opposed to e-Commerce. The topics covered will be of interest to a wide range of practitioners.
Service-Oriented Computing – ICSOC 2005
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing, ICSOC 2005, held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands in December 2005. The 32 revised full papers and 14 short papers presented together with 8 industrial and demo papers were carefully reviewed and selected from over 200 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on vision papers, service specification and modelling, service design and validation, service selection and discovery, service composition and aggregation, service monitoring, service management, semantic Web and grid services, as well as security, exception handling, and SLAs.

Big Data Computing
Due to market forces and technological evolution, Big Data computing is developing at an increasing rate. A wide variety of novel approaches and tools have emerged to tackle the challenges of Big Data, creating both more opportunities and more challenges for students and professionals in the field of data computation and analysis. Presenting a mix of industry cases and theory, Big Data Computing discusses the technical and practical issues related to Big Data in intelligent information management. Emphasizing the adoption and diffusion of Big Data tools and technologies in industry, the book introduces a broad range of Big Data concepts, tools, and techniques. It covers a wide range of research, and provides comparisons between state-of-the-art approaches. Comprised of five sections, the book focuses on: What Big Data is and why it is important Semantic technologies Tools and methods Business and economic perspectives Big Data applications across industries
Cloud Computing
Cloud computing has created a shift from the use of physical hardware and locally managed software-enabled platforms to that of virtualized cloud-hosted services. Cloud assembles large networks of virtual services, including hardware (CPU, storage, and network) and software resources (databases, message queuing systems, monitoring systems, and load-balancers). As Cloud continues to revolutionize applications in academia, industry, government, and many other fields, the transition to this efficient and flexible platform presents serious challenges at both theoretical and practical levels—ones that will often require new approaches and practices in all areas. Comprehensive and timely, Cloud ...
High Speed and Large Scale Scientific Computing
Summary: This work combines selected papers from a July 2008 workshop held in Cetraro, Italy, with invited papers by international contributors. Material is in sections on algorithms and scheduling, architectures, GRID technologies, cloud technologies, information processing and applications, and HPC and GRID infrastructures for e-science. B&w maps, images, and screenshots are used to illustrate topics such as nondeterministic coordination using S-Net, cloud computing for on-demand grid resource provisioning, grid computing for financial applications, and the evolution of research and education networks and their essential role in modern science. There is no subject index. The book's readership includes computer scientists, IT engineers, and managers interested in the future development of grids, clouds, and large-scale computing. Gentzsch is affiliated with the DEISA Project and Open Grid Forum, Germany.
Scientific Workflows
Creating scientific workflow applications is a very challenging task due to the complexity of the distributed computing environments involved, the complex control and data flow requirements of scientific applications, and the lack of high-level languages and tools support. Particularly, sophisticated expertise in distributed computing is commonly required to determine the software entities to perform computations of workflow tasks, the computers on which workflow tasks are to be executed, the actual execution order of workflow tasks, and the data transfer between them. Qin and Fahringer present a novel workflow language called Abstract Workflow Description Language (AWDL) and the correspondi...
Advances in Database Technology - EDBT 2004
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Extending Database Technology, EDBT 2004, held in Heraklion, Crete, Greece, in March 2004. The 42 revised full papers presented together with 2 industrial application papers, 15 software demos, and 3 invited contributions were carefully reviewed and selected from 294 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on distributed, mobile and peer-to-peer database systems; data mining and knowledge discovery; trustworthy database systems; innovative query processing techniques for XML data; data and information on the web; query processing techniques for spatial databases; foundations of query processing; advanced query processing and optimization; query processing techniques for data and schemas; multimedia and quality-aware systems; indexing techniques; and imprecise sequence pattern queries.
Technologies for E-Services
The 2004 VLDB workshop on Technologies on E-Services (VLDB-TES 2004) was the ?fth workshop in a series of annual workshops endorsed by the VLDB Conference.Itservedasaforumfortheexchangeofideas,resultsandexperiences in the area of e-services and e-business. VLDB-TES 2004 took place in Toronto, Canada. It featured the presen- tion of 12 regular papers, focused on major aspects of e-business solutions. In addition, the workshop invited 2 industrial speakers to share their vision, insight and experience with the audience. The workshop would not have been a success without help from so many people. Special thanks go to Fabio Casati, who organized the program agenda and the proceedings publication, and Chandra Srivastava, who served as the publicity chair. We also thank the members of the program committee and the additional reviewers for their thorough work, which greatly contributed to the quality of the ?nal program. We hope that the participants found the workshop interesting and stimul- ing, and we thank them for attending the workshop and for contributing to the discussions.
