Relational database systems have evolved significantly since their inception
over 30 years ago. New applications are now more complex than ever,
and tuning a production system for performance has become a critical yet
time-consuming activity. Due to the increasing complexity in both application
workloads and query engines, even...
This book describes a complete revolution in software engineering based on complexity science through the establishment of NSE – Nonlinear Software Engineering paradigm which complies with the essential principles of complexity science, including the Nonlinearity principle, the Holism principle, the Complexity Arises From Simple Rules...
This book deals with the economic aspects of changing attitudes in arts and sciences. The effects of the public good character of culture, along with the very long production period and lifetime for its products, are emphasized, since both contribute to the failure of normal market solutions. Embodiment of ideas and the consequences of modern...
