Overview

Despite the growing interest in Real-Time Database Systems, there is no single book that acts as a reference to academics, professionals, and practitioners who wish to understand the issues involved in the design and development of RTDBS. Real-Time Database Systems: Issues and Applications fulfills this need. This book presents the spectrum of issues that may arise in various real-time database applications, the available solutions and technologies that may be used to address these issues, and the open problems that need to be tackled in the future. With rapid advances in this area, several concepts have been proposed without a widely accepted consensus on their definitions and implications. To address this need, the first chapter is an introduction to the key RTDBS concepts and definitions, which is followed by a survey of the state of the art in RTDBS research and practice. The remainder of the book consists of four sections: models and paradigms, applications and benchmarks, scheduling and concurrency control, and experimental systems. The chapters in each section are contributed by experts in the respective areas. Real-Time Database Systems: Issues and Applications is primarily intended for practicing engineers and researchers working in the growing area of real-time database systems. For practitioners, the book will provide a much needed bridge for technology transfer and continued education. For researchers, this book will provide a comprehensive reference for well-established results. This book can also be used in a senior or graduate level course on real-time systems, real-time database systems, and database systems or closely related courses.

Editorial Reviews

Booknews
After an introduction to key real-time database system (RTDBS) concepts and definitions and a survey of current RTDBS research and practice, chapters are arranged in sections on models and paradigms, applications and benchmarks, scheduling and concurrency control, and experimental systems. Aspects discussed include similarity semantics, real-time databases in telecommunications, admission control and overload management, and a real-time database server in an agile manufacturing system. For practicing engineers and researchers working in the field. Can also be used in a senior or graduate level course. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
