In a database,  real-time means that in addition to typical logical consistency  constraints, such as a constraint on a data item's value, there are  constraints on when transactions execute and on the `freshness' of the  data transactions access. \u003cbr\u003e  The challenges and tradeoffs faced by the designers of real-time  database systems are quite different from those faced by the designers  of general-purpose database systems. To achieve the fundamental  requirements of timeliness and predictability, not only do  conventional methods for scheduling and transaction management have to  be redesigned, but also new concepts that have not been considered in  conventional database systems or in real-time systems need to be  added. \u003cem\u003eReal-Time Database and Information Systems: Research  Advances\u003c\/em\u003e is devoted to new techniques for scheduling of  transactions, concurrency management, transaction logging, database  languages, and new distributed database architectures. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eReal-Time Database and Information Systems: Research Advances\u003c\/em\u003e is  primarily intended for practicing engineers and researchers working in  the growing area of real-time database and information retrieval  systems. For practitioners, the book will provide a much needed bridge  for technology transfer and continued education. For researchers, the  book will provide a comprehensive reference for well-established  results. The 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.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1997-09-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792380115\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-6069-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235.0cm x155.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 426.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45578421305484,"sku":"9780792380115","price":197.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792380115.jpg?v=1767146755","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780792380115","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
