Joe Celko's SQL Programming Style (The Morgan Kaufmann Series in Data Management Systems)

Morgan Kaufmann, 2005

Are you an SQL programmer that, like many, came to SQL after learning and writing procedural or object-oriented code? Or have switched jobs to where a different brand of SQL is being used, or maybe even been told to learn SQL yourself?

If even one answer is yes, then you need this book. A "Manual of Style" for the SQL...

Digital Systems and Applications (The Computer Engineering Handbook, Second Edition)

CRC Press, 2007

After nearly six years as the field's leading reference, the second edition of the award-winning Computer Engineering Handbook reemerges with completely updated content and a brand new format. Part of this monumental revision, Digital Systems and Applications surveys the latest advances in computer system technologies and the applications that are...

Adaptive and Multilevel Metaheuristics (Studies in Computational Intelligence)

Springer, 2008

One of the keystones in practical metaheuristic problem-solving is the fact that tuning the optimization technique to the problem under consideration is crucial for achieving top performance. This tuning/customization is usually in the hands of the algorithm designer, and despite some methodological attempts, it largely remains a scientific art....

Heuristics in Analytics: A Practical Perspective of What Influences Our Analytical World (Wiley and SAS Business Series)

John Wiley & Sons, 2014

Employ heuristic adjustments for truly accurate analysis

Heuristics in Analytics presents an approach to analysis that accounts for the randomness of business and the competitive marketplace, creating a model that more accurately reflects the scenario at hand. With an emphasis on the importance of proper analytical...

Artificial Intelligence for Advanced Problem Solving Techniques

Information Science Publishing, 2008

One of the most important functions of artificial intelligence, automated problem solving, consists mainly of the development of software systems designed to find solutions to problems. These systems utilize a search space and algorithms in order to reach a solution.

Dissemination of Information in Optical Networks:: From Technology to Algorithms (Texts in Theoretical Computer Science. An EATCS Series)

Springer, 2007

Optical networks and the related technologies, network management software and services have undergone remarkable developments, and such networks are now the ultra-high-speed backbone networks for communication. Wavelength-Division Multiplexing (WDM), the ability to support multiple communication pathways over the same fiber, enables efficient use...

Combinatorial Search: From Algorithms to Systems

Springer, 2013

Although they are believed to be unsolvable in general, tractability results suggest that some practical NP-hard problems can be efficiently solved. Combinatorial search algorithms are designed to efficiently explore the usually large solution space of these instances by reducing the search space to feasible regions and using heuristics to...

Essential Algorithms: A Practical Approach to Computer Algorithms

John Wiley & Sons, 2013

A friendly and accessible introduction to the most useful algorithms

Computer algorithms are the basic recipes for programming. Professional programmers need to know how to use algorithms to solve difficult programming problems. Written in simple, intuitive English, this book describes how and when to use the most practical...

Data Mining: A Heuristic Approach

Idea Group Publishing, 2002

The last decade has witnessed a revolution in interdisciplinary research where the boundaries of different areas have overlapped or even disappeared. New fields of research emerge each day where two or more fields have integrated to form a new identity. Examples of these emerging areas include bioinformatics (synthesizing biology with...
