Transact-SQL Cookbook: Help for Database Programmers
by Ales Spetic Jonathan GennickThis unique cookbook contains a wealth of solutions to problems that SQL programmers face all the time. The recipes inside range from how to perform simple tasks, like importing external data, to ways of handling issues that are more complicated, like set algebra. Authors Ales Spetic and Jonathan Gennick, two authorities with extensive database and SQL programming experience, include a discussion with each recipe to explain the logic and concepts underlying the solution.SQL (Structured Query Language) is the closest thing to a standard query language that currently exists, and Transact-SQL -- a full-featured programming language that dramatically extends the power of SQL -- is the procedural language of choice for both Microsoft SQL Server and Sybase SQL Server systems. The Transact-SQL Cookbook is designed so you can use the recipes directly, as a source of ideas, or as a way to learn a little more about SQL and what you can do with it. Topics covered include:Audit logging. In addition to recipes for implementing an audit log, this chapter also includes recipes for: improving performance where large log tables are involved; supporting multiple-languages; and simulating server push.Hierarchies. Recipes show you how to manipulate hierarchical data using Transact-SQL.Importing data. This chapter introduces concepts like normalization and recipes useful for working with imported data tables.Sets. Recipes demonstrate different operations, such as how to find common elements, summarize the data in a set, and find the element in a set that represents an extreme.Statistics. This chapter?s recipes show you how to effectively use SQL for common statistical operations from means and standard deviations to weighted moving averages.Temporal data. Recipes demonstrate how to construct queries against time-based data.Data Structures. This chapter shows how to manipulate data structures like stacks, queues, matrices, and arrays.With an abundance of recipes to help you get your job done more efficiently, the Transact-SQL Cookbook is sure to become an essential part of your library.
Transaction-Level Power Modeling
by Amr Baher Darwish Magdy Ali El-Moursy Mohamed Amin DessoukyThis book describes for readers a methodology for dynamic power estimation, using Transaction Level Modeling (TLM). The methodology exploits the existing tools for RTL simulation, design synthesis and SystemC prototyping to provide fast and accurate power estimation using Transaction Level Power Modeling (TLPM). Readers will benefit from this innovative way of evaluating power on a high level of abstraction, at an early stage of the product life cycle, decreasing the number of the expensive design iterations.
Transactional Distance and Adaptive Learning: Planning for the Future of Higher Education
by Farhad Saba Rick L. ShearerTransactional Distance and Adaptive Learning takes a fresh look at one of the pioneering educational theories that accommodates the impact of information and communications technologies in learning. The theory of transactional distance (TTD) provides a distinct analytical and planning foundation for educators to conduct an overarching inquiry into transitioning from mass instructional and management systems in higher education to dynamic and transformational futures that focus on each individual learner. Based on the TTD, this pragmatic approach offers instructors, administrators, students, and other stakeholders a comprehensive planning method to assess the current state of their instructional, learning, and management practices and to develop alternative models to prescribe future improvements in their institution. This complex, self-organized, and adaptive method includes current and emergent properties of: hardware, software, and telecommunications systems that allow faculty, students, and administrators to communicate; instructional and curriculum systems that provide teaching and learning environments for faculty and students; and management, societal, and global systems that influence how institutions are supported, funded, and managed.
Transactional Machine Learning with Data Streams and AutoML: Build Frictionless and Elastic Machine Learning Solutions with Apache Kafka in the Cloud Using Python
by Sebastian MauriceUnderstand how to apply auto machine learning to data streams and create transactional machine learning (TML) solutions that are frictionless (require minimal to no human intervention) and elastic (machine learning solutions that can scale up or down by controlling the number of data streams, algorithms, and users of the insights). This book will strengthen your knowledge of the inner workings of TML solutions using data streams with auto machine learning integrated with Apache Kafka. Transactional Machine Learning with Data Streams and AutoML introduces the industry challenges with applying machine learning to data streams. You will learn the framework that will help you in choosing business problems that are best suited for TML. You will also see how to measure the business value of TML solutions. You will then learn the technical components of TML solutions, including the reference and technical architecture of a TML solution. This book also presents a TML solution template that will make it easy for you to quickly start building your own TML solutions. Specifically, you are given access to a TML Python library and integration technologies for download. You will also learn how TML will evolve in the future, and the growing need by organizations for deeper insights from data streams. By the end of the book, you will have a solid understanding of TML. You will know how to build TML solutions with all the necessary details, and all the resources at your fingertips. What You Will Learn Discover transactional machine learning Measure the business value of TML Choose TML use cases Design technical architecture of TML solutions with Apache Kafka Work with the technologies used to build TML solutions Build transactional machine learning solutions with hands-on code together with Apache Kafka in the cloud Who This Book Is For Data scientists, machine learning engineers and architects, and AI and machine learning business leaders.
Transactions on Aspect-Oriented Software Development XII
by Shigeru Chiba Éric Tanter Erik Ernst Robert HirschfeldThe LNCS journal Transactions on Aspect-Oriented Software Development is devoted to all facets of aspect-oriented software development (AOSD) techniques in the context of all phases of the software life cycle, from requirements and design to implementation, maintenance and evolution. The focus of the journal is on approaches for systematic identification, modularization, representation, and composition of crosscutting concerns, i. e. , the aspects and evaluation of such approaches and their impact on improving quality attributes of software systems. This volume, the 12th in the Transactions on Aspect-Oriented Software Development series, contains one regular paper, on modular reasoning in aspect-oriented languages from a substitution perspective, and four extended, improved papers selected from those presented at Modularity 2014. Topics covered include novel dynamic semantics through delegation proxies, modularity potential detection based on co-change clusters, improvements in reusability for components of semantic specifications of programming languages, and probabilistic model checking applied to dynamically generated members of a product line.
