Download or read book Making Databases Work written by Michael L. Brodie and published by Morgan & Claypool. This book was released on 2018-12-14 with total page 730 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book celebrates Michael Stonebraker's accomplishments that led to his 2014 ACM A.M. Turing Award "for fundamental contributions to the concepts and practices underlying modern database systems." The book describes, for the broad computing community, the unique nature, significance, and impact of Mike's achievements in advancing modern database systems over more than forty years. Today, data is considered the world's most valuable resource, whether it is in the tens of millions of databases used to manage the world's businesses and governments, in the billions of databases in our smartphones and watches, or residing elsewhere, as yet unmanaged, awaiting the elusive next generation of database systems. Every one of the millions or billions of databases includes features that are celebrated by the 2014 Turing Award and are described in this book. Why should I care about databases? What is a database? What is data management? What is a database management system (DBMS)? These are just some of the questions that this book answers, in describing the development of data management through the achievements of Mike Stonebraker and his over 200 collaborators. In reading the stories in this book, you will discover core data management concepts that were developed over the two greatest eras (so far) of data management technology. The book is a collection of 36 stories written by Mike and 38 of his collaborators: 23 world-leading database researchers, 11 world-class systems engineers, and 4 business partners. If you are an aspiring researcher, engineer, or entrepreneur you might read these stories to find these turning points as practice to tilt at your own computer-science windmills, to spur yourself to your next step of innovation and achievement.

Download or read book Data Management in Grid and Peer to Peer Systems written by Abdelkader Hameurlain and published by Springer. This book was released on 2009-08-24 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The synergy and convergence of research on grid computing and peer-to-peer (P2P) computing have materialized in the meeting of the two research communities: parallel systems and distributed systems. The main common objective is to harness Internet-connected resources (e.g., CPU, memory, network bandwidth, data sources) at very large scale. In this framework, the Globe Conference tries to consolidate the bidirectional bridge between grid and P2P systems and large-scale heterogeneous distributed database systems. Today, the grid and P2P systems hold a more and more important position in the landscape of the research in large-scale distributed systems, and the applications which require an effective management of voluminous, distributed and heterogeneous data. This importance comes out of characteristics offered by these systems: autonomy and dynamicity of peers, decentralized control for scaling, and transparent sharing large-scale distributed resources. The second edition of the International Conference on Data Management in Grid and P2P Systems was held during September 1-2, 2009 in Linz, Austria. The main objective of this conference was to present the latest results in research and applications, to identify new issues, and to shape future directions.
Download or read book Design Thinking Research written by Hasso Plattner and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-09-08 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book summarizes the results of Design Thinking Research carried out at Stanford University in Palo Alto, California, USA and Hasso Plattner Institute in Potsdam, Germany. The authors offer readers a closer look at Design Thinking with its processes of innovations and methods. The contents of the articles range from how to design ideas, methods and technologies via creativity experiments and wicked problem solutions, to creative collaboration in the real world and the connectivity of designers and engineers. But the topics go beyond this in their detailed exploration of design thinking and its use in IT systems engineering fields and even from a management perspective. The authors show how these methods and strategies work in companies, introduce new technologies and their functions and demonstrate how Design Thinking can influence as diverse a topic area as marriage. Furthermore, we see how special design thinking use functions in solving wicked problems in complex fields. Thinking and creating innovations are basically and inherently human – so is Design Thinking. Due to this, Design Thinking is not only a factual matter or a result of special courses nor of being gifted or trained: it’s a way of dealing with our environment and improving techniques, technologies and life.

Download or read book Reasoning in Event Based Distributed Systems written by Sven Helmer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-06-17 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the rapid expansion of the Internet over the last 20 years, event-based distributed systems are playing an increasingly important role in a broad range of application domains, including enterprise management, environmental monitoring, information dissemination, finance, pervasive systems, autonomic computing, collaborative working and learning, and geo-spatial systems. Many different architectures, languages and technologies are being used for implementing event-based distributed systems, and much of the development has been undertaken independently by different communities. However, a common factor is an ever-increasing complexity. Users and developers expect that such systems are able not only to handle large volumes of simple events but also to detect complex patterns of events that may be spatially distributed and may span significant periods of time. Intelligent and logic-based approaches provide sound foundations for addressing many of the research challenges faced and this book covers a broad range of recent advances, contributed by leading experts in the field. It presents a comprehensive view of reasoning in event-based distributed systems, bringing together reviews of the state-of-the art, new research contributions, and an extensive set of references. It will serve as a valuable resource for students, faculty and researchers as well as industry practitioners responsible for new systems development.
