Multimedia and Imaging Databases

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Khoshfian, Setrag / Khoshafian / Khoshafian, Setrag, PUBLISHER: Morgan Kaufmann Publishers, Affordable and mainstream manipulation of multimedia data types will lead to tremendous growth in imaging and multimedia data in general computing environments. Multimedia and imaging applications can now provide benefits to common business applications by integrating voice, sound, images, animation and digitized video. Ultimately, it will be possible to convert all information that is currently stored on paper, video and film into a digitized environment. This will allow users to organize, search and route multimedia objects over local and wide area networks in real time. The authors' introductory level presentation of this new class of data types supplies the database technology required for effective manipulation and storage. Multimedia and database experts, Khoshafian and Baker aptly illustrate the ability of multimedia database systems to concurrently share, access, and query large collections of multimedia information. They introduce the elemental concepts of object and relational databases and then apply them to multimedia and imaging databases. Fundamental database topics discussed include querying, transaction support, recovery, security, and storage. This book provides information essential to the incorporation of multimedia databases that will improve the quantity and quality of information manipulated by computer users in many areas including medicine, computer aided design, and information retrieval systems.

Performance in Water Distribution: A Systems Approach

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Coelho, Sergio Teixeira / Coelho, S. T. U., PUBLISHER: Research Studies Press, Rigorous application of the method to different performance fields of water networks, illustrated by various case studies. Detailed analysis of key areas of water networks' behaviour, including advances in the analysis and modelling procedures that are currently available, e.g. in water quality modelling and reliability analysis. Applicable to a range of engineering problems in water distribution. Performance analysis is becoming a key issue in the engineering approach to the control of water supply and distribution systems, both as a natural process of evolution of the modelling and design methods available, and as a consequence of an ever increasing awareness of the quality of the service provided within the water industry today. This book presents a systematic approach to the analysis of technical performance of water networks by creating a framework in which a variety of concepts and criteria can be included. The system presented provides a shift in the way engineering problems are formulated in water supply, allowing greater control of analysis objectives and improved sensitivity.

Next Generation Wireless Networks

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Tekinay, Sirin, PUBLISHER: Springer, This book is an organized and edited work of enabling technologies for the applications and services needed for future wireless networks. Its focus is the defining architectures, services and applications, with coverage of all layers, i.e., from the physical layer to the information handling layers of the network. The new wireless network architectures are geared specifically for enabling mobility and location-enhanced applications. Presented first are tutorials on new network architectures, including a discussion of "infostations," the role of satellites in broadband wireless access, and the "infocity" concept. The next three chapters present material that describes the state-of-the-art in wireless geolocation systems (including "assisted GPS"), alternatives for wireless geolocation, and empirical data on wireless geolocation capabilities. The first of the last two chapters demonstrates the use of location information in next generation wireless networks, with coverage of real-time geolocation measurements in mobile connectivity. The final chapter portrays the creation of a "killer application" in wireless networks. Leading researchers in the field have contributed to this volume. Next Generation Wireless Networks is essential reading for engineers, researchers, application design specialists, and product managers in the field of wireless network architectures and wireless geolocation.

TCP/IP Explained

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Miller, Philip, PUBLISHER: Digital Press, TCP/IP Explained concentrates on how each protocol works within the Internet Protocol Suite and discusses the addressing, delivery, transport and routing protocols. Many books on this subject concentrate on why protocols are designed in a particular way. This book concentrates on how they actually work. The approach is practical, and the reader can see how network changes affect overall operation. Ignored by many writers on the subject, but none the less important, are the Link Layer protocols that enable both interoperability between vendors and remote access to networks. This book describes these protocols in detail and includes the very latest enhancements. Equally, network managers must think about security when considering networks of this type. By providing useful examples of how such systems can be applied, this book discusses exactly what is needed to create a secure environment. TCP/IP Explained can be broadly split into four sections. The first section deals with the basics of the TCP/IP suite and how data is transported between two systems. The second section discusses routing principles and protocols. The third section deals with applications, and the fourth section discusses miscellaneous areas, such as common protocols used across wide area networks, securing networks, and the future of IP. 7 Covers all aspects of TCP/IP and includes internetworking in the wide are and remote access 7 Combines self-study with reference material
