Review Database Development and Management (Foundations of Database Design) / Auerbach Publications:Today's database professionals must understand how to apply database systems to business processes and how to develop database systems for both business intelligence and Web-based applications. Database Development and Management explains all aspects of database design, access, implementation, application development, and management, as well as data analysis for business intelligence. This self-contained text gives students hands-on projects required for professionally developing and managing databases. It provides detailed instruction via an easy-to-follow, step-by-step case-based approach. Following an introduction to database components, the book uses case studies to illustrate the modeling process, covers table structures and normalization, and analyzes the transformation of a data model to a relational database. It explains the use of SQL in managing database objects and in querying databases, then discusses Transact-SQL and the views, indexes, and cursors that bridge databases and their applications. The book examines three major data-accessing techniques, and then shows how to develop sophisticated applications based upon the material included in previous chapters. It explores the use of databases in network environments, and details the multiple tasks handled by database administrators (DBAs). The text also discusses the OnLine Analytical Processing (OLAP) system, data warehousing, and other analysis tools that support business intelligence and decision making. It concludes with a review of data mining.

Review Data Access in Workflow Management Systems (Dissertations in Database and Information Systems-Infix) / Ios Pr Inc:Workflow management systems support the execution of business processes. To this end they need data; data about the business cases, data for performing steps of the process, data for making decisions in the control of the process. Workflows generate and consume data, particularly data stored in external databases and used by different applications. This book makes three important contributions to data handling in workflow management systems. First, it proposes a uniform treatment of all kinds of business data in workflows and describes an abstraction layer which enables the transparent access to data in any source in a uniform way. Then it extends the functionality of workflow management systems with a manageable and policy based mechanism for maintaining copies of external data in the workflow repository. Finally, it presents a method of ensuring data correctness in workflows. All these concepts are incorporated into a prototype workflow definition language and! presented in a way that makes them applicable to other languages and workflow management systems as well.

Review Introduction to the Management of Laboratory Data: A Tutorial Approach Using Borland's Paradox Relational Database / Royal Society of Chemistry:This text is designed to introduce laboratory supervisors and managers, who have only a limited knowledge of computer programming, to the use of a relational database for the management of laboratory data. No previous knowledge of a programming language is assumed, as the detailed step-by-step instruction in the text leads the reader through the process of designing the structure of a simple functional Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS). The pragmatic tutorial approach adopted in the text leads to an intuitive understanding of the nature of relational databases, and that of Borland's Paradox relational database in particular. The full range of advanced features in Paradox are covered in the text, and each is used in at least one module of the application. The text goes beyond the interactive use of the menu-driven Paradox database, which is covered in many texts on the use of programming languages, and makes extensive use of the Paradox Application Language, PAL, to prepare code for the modules in the Laboratory Information Management System.

Review Optimizing an Oracle Database on the Database andApplication Level: An Application Developer\\\'s Perspective / VDM Verlag:Database management systems are an integral part of ICT infrastructure in contemporary companies. Their performance is imperative for the company to becompetitive. Thus, knowing how to develop efficient database applications and to be able to measure their performance and optimise them is a crucial asset for any application developer. In this master?s thesis a special emphasis is put on Oracle as it is a widely used database management system with a good array of optimisation techniques and tools. This master?s thesis examines database optimisation first on a theoretical level and then the optimisation and performance measurement techniques are tested in practice in a laboratory experiment. In this constructive part an Oracle PL/SQL procedure is optimised by using bulk processing techniques, applying better transaction handling and using dynamic SQL.

Review Oracle Certified Professional Financial Applications Consultant Exam Guide (Book/CD-ROM package) / McGraw-Hill Companies:Make a smart career move and begin enjoying all the rewards of OCP Financial Applications Consultant certification! This Oracle-endorsed study guide offers a complete preparation system geared to help you pass your exams with flying colors! Bonus CD-ROM contains more than 300 interactive practice exam questions. Oracle Financials play a big role in the information infrastructures of many companies, and a solid understanding of that environment can pay very large dividends in consulting work. Oracle Certified Professional Financial Applications Consultant Exam Guide readies you for the four exams (two core and two elective) that make up the Oracle Certified Professional (OCP) Financial Applications Consultant track. The book tackles the exams one at a time, explaining what you need to know-conceptually, as well as in terms of software details-about the Oracle Financials environment. The exercises help drive information into your long-term memory, and each chapter is peppered with review questions that help prepare you for what's on the exams. This is more than a test-prep book, however, and it's likely that you'll be happy with it even if you have no plans to pursue a formal Oracle certification. The large and complicated concepts that underlie Oracle Financials are explained, a difficult job that the book does well. It's also careful to maintain a focus on business objectives, instead of on characteristics of the software itself. One section explains the process of creating a blanket purchase order, properly accounting for the purchases that are made against it, and then releasing individual purchase authorizations under the order's terms. The index is extensive and detailed, so finding the documentation that you need is rather easy. [+]-David Wall Topics covered: The Oracle Financials suite of applications, with a bit of a bias toward the four Oracle Certified Professional (OCP) Financial Applications Consultant tests. The details of the material that's on the Financial Management, Applied Technology, Procurement, and Order Fulfillment exams all appear here, which means that you can use this as a general-purpose Oracle Financials reference, and not only as a study helper.
