This book provides comprehensive coverage of fundamentals of database management system. It contains a detailed description on Relational Database Management System Concepts. There are a variety of solved examples and review questions with solutions. This book is for those who require a better understanding of relational data modeling, its purpose, its nature, and the standards used in creating relational data model.

This book addresses issues related to managing data across a distributed database system. It is unique because it covers traditional database theory and current research, explaining the difficulties in providing a unified user interface and global data dictionary. The book gives implementers guidance on hiding discrepancies across systems and creating the illusion of a single repository for users. It also includes three sample frameworks—implemented using J2SE with JMS, J2EE, and Microsoft .Net—that readers can use to learn how to implement a distributed database management system. IT and development groups and computer sciences/software engineering graduates will find this guide invaluable.

This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 18th International Conference on Database and Expert Systems Applications held in September 2007. Papers are organized into topical sections covering XML, data and information, datamining and data warehouses, database applications, WWW, bioinformatics, process automation and workflow, knowledge management and expert systems, database theory, query processing, and privacy and security.

This volume of proceedings contains original papers of good technical quality which present recent developments in databases and knowledge based systems and their applications to practical problems. Topics covered include databases and temporal databases, object-oriented modelling and object-oriented databases, deductive databases, distributed database and information systems, database design issues and intelligent databases. The papers reflect the importance of databases and the work being done on them.

This book is the third of a three-part series on taxonomies, and covers putting your taxonomy into use in as many ways as possible to maximize retrieval for your users. Chapter 1 suggests several items to research and consider before you start your implementation and integration process. It explores the different pieces of software that you will need for your system and what features to look for in each. Chapter 2 launches with a discussion of how taxonomy terms can be used within a workflow, connecting two—or more—taxonomies, and intelligent coordination of platforms and taxonomies. Microsoft SharePoint is a widely used and popular program, and I consider their use of taxonomies in this chapter. Following that is a discussion of taxonomies and semantic integration and then the relationship between indexing and the hierarchy of a taxonomy. Chapter 3 (“How is a Taxonomy Connected to Search?”) provides discussions and examples of putting taxonomies into use in practical applications. It discusses displaying content based on search, how taxonomy is connected to search, using a taxonomy to guide a searcher, tools for search, including search engines, crawlers and spiders, and search software, the parts of a search-capable system, and then how to assemble that search-capable system. This chapter also examines how to measure quality in search, the different kinds of search, and theories on search from several famous theoreticians—two from the 18th and 19th centuries, and two contemporary. Following that is a section on inverted files, parsing, discovery, and clustering. While you probably don’t need a comprehensive understanding of these concepts to build a solid, workable system, enough information is provided for the reader to see how they fit into the overall scheme. This chapter concludes with a look at faceted search and some possibilities for search interfaces. Chapter 4, “Implementing a Taxonomy in a Database or on a Website,” starts where many content systems really should—with the authors, or at least the people who create the content. This chapter discusses matching up various groups of related data to form connections, data visualization and text analytics, and mobile and e-commerce applications for taxonomies. Finally, Chapter 5 presents some educated guesses about the future of knowledge organization. Table of Contents: List of Figures / Preface / Acknowledgments / On Your Mark, Get Ready .... WAIT!

Database management courses introduce students to languages, applications and programming used for the design and maintenance of business databases. One of the basic skills covered in database management courses is the use of Structured Query Language (SQL), the most common database manipulation language. Students learn to write programs with packages, debugging procedures, triggers and database structures using SQL. Database management courses may also cover Visual Basic programming language skills for program design. Other database management skills include the use of data and object modeling, relational algebra, relational data models and applications programming. The physical characteristics of databases, reliability and system performance are additional topics in database management. In database concepts classes, the emphasis is on normalization, data dictionaries and data integrity. Students' skill set upon course completion should include designing and implementing normalized databases using database reports and creating forms and tables. Students completing database applications classes will have the skills necessary to create multiple table systems with screens, updates and reports.

This book is the acknowledged, authoritative guide to databases in all of their forms - PC, UNIX, and mainframe - a comprehensive reference on current database technology, architectures, an products that should find a place on every IS professional's bookshelf. Now in its second edition, it has been completely updated to include in-depth coverage of every major Internet-spawned database management development - from using Java and Visual Basic for database access to Web search engines and Web-connecting existing databases.
