Managing Worldwide Operations and Communications With Information TechnologyA data warehouse consists of a set of materialized views that contain derived data from several data sources. Materialized views are beneficial because they allow efficient retrieval of summary data. However, materialized views need to be refreshed periodically in order to avoid staleness. During a materialized view refresh only changes to the base... | | Geocomputation and Urban Planning (Studies in Computational Intelligence)Sixteen years ago, Franklin estimated that about 80% of data contain geo-referenced information. To date, the availability of geographic data and information is growing, together with the capacity of users to operate with IT tools and instruments. Spatial data infrastructures are growing and allow a wide number of users to rely on them. This growth... | | IBM Cognos 8 PlanningBusiness planning is no longer just about defining goals, identifying critical issues, and then mapping out strategies. In today's dynamic and highly competitive business environment, companies with complex business models want their abstract strategies turned into discrete, executable plans.
