 Java & Databases (Innovative Technology Series)Of interest to programmers, database managers, systems designers, and multimedia academics, this book describes the use of the programming language Java in data storage management control. Some topics are Java and OQL, the seamless persistence option for Java, implementing a search engine using an OODBA, triggers in Java-based ... | | Quantitative Approaches in Object-oriented Software EngineeringMeasures of software internal attributes have been extensively used to help software managers, customers and users to characterize, assess and improve the quality of software products. The introduction of object-oriented (OO) software provides powerful design mechanisms with which to do this, and new technologies—e.g., OO frameworks, OO... | | Parallel I/O for Cluster Computing (Innovative Technology Series)Data sets in large applications such as databases and data-mining applications are often too large to fit into a computer’s internal memory. The resulting I/O (input/output) communications between internal memory and the slower external medium (such as disks) can present a major performance bottleneck.
Among the possible computer... |

| | Channel Coding in Communication Networks: From Theory to Turbo CodesThe very title of this book is borrowed from the information theory vocabulary, and, quite naturally, it is an outline of this theory that will serve as an introduction. The subject of information theory is the scientific study of communications. To this end it defines a quantitative measurement of the communicated content, i.e. information, and... | | Software Specification MethodsThis book is an introduction to a set of software specification methods. Its targeted audience are readers who do not wish to read pages of definitions in order to understand the basics of a method. The same case study is used to introduce each method, following a rigorously uniform presentation format. Special care has been devoted to ensure that... |
