Data Intensive Computing refers to capturing, managing, analyzing, and understanding data at volumes and rates that push the frontiers of current technologies. The challenge of data intensive computing is to provide the hardware architectures and related software systems and techniques which are capable of transforming ultra-large data into valuable knowledge. Handbook of Data Intensive Computing is written by leading international experts in the field. Experts from academia, research laboratories and private industry address both theory and application. Data intensive computing demands a fundamentally different set of principles than mainstream computing. Data-intensive applications typically are well suited for large-scale parallelism over the data and also require an extremely high degree of fault-tolerance, reliability, and availability. Real-world examples are provided throughout the book. Handbook of Data Intensive Computing is designed as a reference for practitioners and researchers, including programmers, computer and system infrastructure designers, and developers. This book can also be beneficial for business managers, entrepreneurs, and investors.
This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the 6th TPC Technology Conference, TPCTC 2014, held in Hangzhou, China, in September 2014. It contains 12 selected peer-reviewed papers, a report from the TPC Public Relations Committee. Many buyers use TPC benchmark results as points of comparison when purchasing new computing systems. The information technology landscape is evolving at a rapid pace, challenging industry experts and researchers to develop innovative techniques for evaluation, measurement and characterization of complex systems. The TPC remains committed to developing new benchmark standards to keep pace and one vehicle for achieving this objective is the sponsorship of the Technology Conference on Performance Evaluation and Benchmarking (TPCTC). Over the last five years TPCTC has been held successfully in conjunction with VLDB.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Business Intelligence for the Real-Time Enterprise, BIRTE 2009, held in Lyon, France, in August 2009, in conjunction with VLDB 2009, the International Conference on Very Large Data Bases. The volume contains the carefully reviewed selected papers from the workshop, including one of the two keynotes, the six research, two industrial, and one experimental paper, and also the basic statements from the panel discussion on “Merging OLTP and OLAP”. The topical focus is on models and concepts, architectures, case-studies, and applications of technologies for real-time enterprise business intelligence.
This book summarizes the found insights of grain growth behavior, of multidimensional decomposition for regular grids to efficiently parallelize computing and how to simulate recrystallization by coupling the finite element method with the phase-field method for microstructure texture analysis. The frame of the book is created by the phase-field method, which is the tool used in this work, to investigate microstructure phenomena.
Linked Data Management presents techniques for querying and managing Linked Data that is available on today's Web. The book shows how the abundance of Linked Data can serve as fertile ground for research and commercial applications.The text focuses on aspects of managing large-scale collections of Linked Data. It offers a detailed introduction to L
From basic concepts to research grade material and future directions, the Near Field Communications Handbook provides comprehensive technical coverage of this rapidly emerging field. Walking readers through emerging applications, it offers a glimpse at a future in which near field communication (NFC) technology is fully integrated into daily life.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post conference proceedings of the First and Second International Workshops on In Memory Data Management and Analysis held in Riva del Garda, Italy, August 2013 and Hangzhou, China, in September 2014. The 11 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 18 submissions and cover topics from main-memory graph analytics platforms to main-memory OLTP applications.
This volume contains the proceedings of the Fifth International Conference on Database Systems for Advanced Applications (DASFAA '97). DASFAA '97 focused on advanced database technologies and their applications. The 55 papers in this volume cover a wide range of areas in the field of database systems and applications ? including the rapidly emerging areas of the Internet, multimedia, and document database systems ? and should be of great interest to all database system researchers and developers, and practitioners.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Data Warehousing and Knowledge Discovery, DaWaK 2006, held in conjunction with DEXA 2006. The book presents 53 revised full papers, organized in topical sections on ETL processing, materialized view, multidimensional design, OLAP and multidimensional model, cubes processing, data warehouse applications, mining techniques, frequent itemsets, mining data streams, ontology-based mining, clustering, advanced mining techniques, association rules, miscellaneous applications, and classification.
This book contains papers from the 2007 European Conference on Web Services and the Workshop on Emerging Web Services Technology. Coverage includes grid-based computing, mobility issues for web services, dynamic web services, and model driven engineering.
