Post takes a hands-on, applications-oriented--not a theory oriented--approach to DBMS focusing on teaching students how to evaluate a business situation and apply a solution by building a database application. The text contains in-depth coverage of two crucial topics for building databases: database design (normalization) and Structured Query Language-SQL (queries). Post includes many examples, exercises, and 2 sample databases to give students plenty of hands-on practice.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Workshop on Web and Wireless Geographical Information Systems, W2GIS 2005, held in Lausanne, Switzerland in December 2005. The 25 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 70 submissions and cover a wide range of topics from web semantic and personalization, contextual representation and mapping to querying in mobile environment, to mobile networks and location-based services. The papers are organized in topical sections on mobile GIS and LBS, mapping and representation issues in Web and mobile GIS, mobile networks, querying in a mobile environment, context and personalization issues in Web and mobile GIS, Web GIS, and modeling for Web and mobile GIS.

Book DescriptionDatabase systems and database design technology have undergone significant evolution in recent years. The relational data model and relational database systems dominate business applications; in turn, they are extended by other technologies like data warehousing, OLAP, and data mining. How do you model and design your database application in consideration of new technology or new business needs? In the extensively revised fourth edition, youll get clear explanations, lots of terrific examples and an illustrative case, and the really practical advice you have come to count on--with design rules that are applicable to any SQL-based system. But youll also get plenty to help you grow from a new database designer to an experienced designer developing industrial-sized systems. + a detailed look at the Unified Modeling Language (UML-2) as well as the entity-relationship (ER) approach for data requirements specification and conceptual modeling--with examples...

Component Database Systems is a collection of invited chapters by the researchers making the most influential contributions in the database industry's trend toward componentization This book represents the sometimes-divergent, sometimes-convergent approaches taken by leading database vendors as they seek to establish commercially viable componentization strategies. Together, these contributions form the first book devoted entirely to the technical and architectural design of component-based database systems. In addition to detailing the current state of their research, the authors also take up many of the issues affecting the likely future directions of component databases. If you have a stake in the evolution of any of today's leading database systems, this book will make fascinating reading. It will also help prepare you for the technology that is likely to become widely available over the next several years. * Is comprised of contributions from the...

Genome Exploitation: Data Mining the Genome is developed from the 23rd Stadler Genetic Symposium. This volume discusses and illustrates how scientists are going to characterize and make use of the massive amount of information being accumulated about the plant and animal genomes. Genome Exploitation: Data Mining the Genome is a state-of-the-art picture on mining the Genome databases. This is one of the few times that researchers in both plants and animals will be working together to create a seminal data resource.

Recent advances in computing, communication, and data storage have led to an increasing number of large digital libraries publicly available on the Internet. In addition to alphanumeric data, other modalities, including video play an important role in these libraries. Ordinary techniques will not retrieve required information from the enormous mass of data stored in digital video libraries. Instead of words, a video retrieval system deals with collections of video records. Therefore, the system is confronted with the problem of video understanding. The system gathers key information from a video in order to allow users to query semantics instead of raw video data or video features. Users expect tools that automatically understand and manipulate the videocontent in the same structured way as a traditional database manages numeric and textual data. Consequently, content-based search and retrieval of video data becomes a challenging and important problem. This book focuses particularly...
