Download or read book Search Routines Tales of Databases written by Lena Brüggemann and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2015-11-24 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Databases pervade our everyday life, they are involved in the individual's most fundamental activities. Through their near invisibility and resistance to narration they produce subtle forms of collective control and normalization, accompanied by keywords such as: mass surveillance, big data, user generated content, etc. The publication "Search Routines: Tales of Databases" enlarges on the topics discussed in the exhibition, the workshop and during the symposium which took place at D21 Kunstraum and sublab hackerspace Leipzig in 2014. A series of interviews review artistic strategies like narration or the translation of data and algorithms to adress the invisibility of databases. Reports from the workshops tell about the potential of making the invisible visible or simply of hiding oneself from the databases' range of view. The symposium dis

Download or read book Inventing the Medium written by Janet H. Murray and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2011-11-23 with total page 499 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A foundational text offering a unified design vocabulary and a common methodology for maximizing the expressive power of digital artifacts. Digital artifacts from iPads to databases pervade our lives, and the design decisions that shape them affect how we think, act, communicate, and understand the world. But the pace of change has been so rapid that technical innovation is outstripping design. Interactors are often mystified and frustrated by their enticing but confusing new devices; meanwhile, product design teams struggle to articulate shared and enduring design goals. With Inventing the Medium, Janet Murray provides a unified vocabulary and a common methodology for the design of digital objects and environments. It will be an essential guide for both students and practitioners in this evolving field. Murray explains that innovative interaction designers should think of all objects made with bits—whether games or Web pages, robots or the latest killer apps—as belonging to a single new medium: the digital medium. Designers can speed the process of useful and lasting innovation by focusing on the collective cultural task of inventing this new medium. Exploring strategies for maximizing the expressive power of digital artifacts, Murray identifies and examines four representational affordances of digital environments that provide the core palette for designers across applications: computational procedures, user participation, navigable space, and encyclopedic capacity. Each chapter includes a set of Design Explorations—creative exercises for students and thought experiments for practitioners—that allow readers to apply the ideas in the chapter to particular design problems. Inventing the Medium also provides more than 200 illustrations of specific design strategies drawn from multiple genres and platforms and a glossary of design concepts.
Download or read book Database Modeling from 0 to 60 in 4 Seconds written by Gavin Powell and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-10-01 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the relational database model from the perspective of the data modeling novice, and thus the title Database Modeling from 0 to 60 in 4 Seconds. The objective is to provide an alternative and easy to understand, step-by-step, simple explanation of designing and building relational database models. There are lots of examples and exercises, as well as a multiple chapter case study. People who would benefit from reading this book would be anyone involved with database technology including database administrators, developers, NOVICE data modelers, systems or network administrators, technical managers, marketers, advertisers, forecasters, planners, executives – anyone who doesn't know something about data modeling – and wants to. If You want some kind of clarity to the funny diagrams You see in Your Access database, perhaps built by a programmer, then this book might help You. If You want to know what all that complicated stuff is in the company MySQL, SQL-Server or Oracle database then this book might be a terrific place to start. This book will give enough of an understanding without completely blowing Your mind - and when there are words You've never seen before there is a glossary of terms to explain those words to You. FULL DISCLOSURE: this is a book that is a seriously reworked self-publishing exercise of a book previously printed by a big publisher - this book deserves another attempt. The one thing to remember about this topic is that it's not an exact science and the what and how of data modeling depends upon the application and the circumstances; and I might even tell You sometimes to think about undoing things You've already worked so hard to create and to make Your database perform a little better. So if You're looking for a definitive set of rules You might not like this book. My overall objective in this book is to help people understand data modeling as both a science as well as and an art, by way of tutorial, assuming that after 25 years in the IT field that I might have actually learned a thing or two. This book covers these topics: The History of Database Modeling Databases and Applications The Art of Database Design The Pieces of the Relational Data Model Intuitive Data Modeling and Normalization Reading and Writing Data with SQL Advanced Relational Database Modeling Understanding Data Warehouse Database Modeling Building Faster Performing Database Models Case Study Chapters: Planning and Preparation Creating and Refining Tables Details in Columns and Datatypes Yes this book can be expanded upon in the future but it took about 2 years to get it to this point so let's see how people like this one first.

Download or read book The State and the Art written by Richard Van Herzeele and published by Gompel&Svacina. This book was released on with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of private actors in policing has become a topic in both research and policy, as police forces face budgetary and expertise-related constraints. These challenges are evident in art crime policing, where a lack of prioritisation often means limited resources are allocated for a crime that requires significant expertise to tackle. Cooperating with private actors has been mooted as a solution to this deficit, but empirical research to support this suggestion is scarce. This book helps fill this gap by examining the interaction between specialist art crime police units and private actors in Belgium, the United Kingdom, and France. Its central questions are whether cooperation already exists in art crime policing, and why, or not. It was found that while limits to police capacity are an important driver for private outreach, several other factors also significantly affect cooperation. This book is relevant for policy, practice, and research, as it examines a hitherto less discussed topic which is nonetheless urgent as art crime shows little signs of abating.
