ISO/IEC 9075 defines the SQL language. The scope of the SQL language is the definition of data structure and the operations on data stored in that structure. Parts 1, 2 and 11 encompass the minimum requirements of the language. Others parts define extensions. ISO/IEC 9075-11:2003 specifies an Information Schema and a Definition Schema that describes the structure and integrity constraints of SQL-data, the security and authorization specifications relating to SQL-data and the features supported by an SQL-implementation together with other sizing information.

Review Handbook of Quantitative Science and Technology Research: The Use of Publication and Patent Statistics in Studies of S&T Systems / Springer:

This handbook offers a state-of-the-art survey of quantitative science and technology research. It focuses on the development and application of indicators derived from data on scientific publications and patents. Many contributions introduce new challenging approaches in the use of these indicators. The work deals with theoretical and methodological issues, and presents applications. Scientific or technological performance and productivity of the S&T system and S&T institutions are central to the underlying concept of this handbook, which illustrates how these measures can be used at the macro-level as well as in the management of organisations. In this context, various topics such as quality control in knowledge production, internationalisation of research, collaboration, knowledge networks and knowledge flows, multi- or interdisciplinarity, knowledge specialisation and integration, and participation of women are discussed. Several contributions address the crucial question of the relevance and use of S&T indicators in a policy context.

Review ISO/IEC 13249-2:2003, Information technology - Database languages - SQL multimedia and application packages - Part 2: Full-Text / Multiple. Distributed through American National Standards Institute (ANSI):

ISO/IEC 13249:2003: introduces the Full-Text part of ISO/IEC 13249 (all parts); gives the references necessary for ISO/IEC 13249:2003; defines notations and conventions specific to ISO/IEC 13249:2003; defines concepts specific to ISO/IEC 13249:2003; defines the full-text user-defined types and their associated routines. The full-text user-defined types defined in ISO/IEC 13249:2003 adhere to the following. A full-text user-defined type is generic to text handling. It addresses the need to search and retrieve information based on aspects of full-text data using patterns such as words, phrases, proximity expansion, fuzzy expansion and thesaurus based expansions. It also addresses the need to construct such search patterns for text identification facilities and text ranking facilities. A full-text user-defined type does not redefine the database language SQL directly or in combination with another full-text data type. An implementation of ISO/IEC 13249:2003 may exist in environments that also support information and content management, decision support, data mining and data warehousing systems. Application areas addressed by implementations of ISO/IEC 13249:2003 include, but are not restricted to, library, newspaper, multimedia and scientific research applications.

Review Handbook of Research on Fuzzy Information Processing in Databases / Information Science Reference:

Information technology is one of the most rapidly changing disciplines, especially with the fuzzy extension. Fuzzy databases have been studied in many works and papers but, in general, these works study some particular area and many works are theoretical works, with very few real applications. The Handbook of Research on Fuzzy Information Processing in Databases provides comprehensive coverage and definitions of the most important issues, concepts, trends, and technologies in fuzzy topics applied to databases, discussing current investigation into uncertainty and imprecision management by means of fuzzy sets and fuzzy logic in the field of databases and data mining. This compendium of research offers researchers, students, and organizations a complete, practical, guide to fuzzy information processing in databases.
