Data Warehousing and Knowledge Discovery

Data Warehousing and Knowledge Discovery
 PDF | 434 pages | 18.48 MB

Data Warehousing and Knowledge Discovery have been widely accepted as key technologies for enterprises and organizations as a means of improving their abilities in data analysis, decision support, and the automatic extraction of knowledge from data. With the exponentially growing amount of information to be included in the decision making process, the data to be processed is becoming more and more complex in both structure and semantics. Consequently, the process of retrieval and knowledge discovery from this huge amount of heterogeneous complex data constitutes the reality check for research in the area.

.NET Framework Security

.NET Framework Security
816 pages | English | CHM | 5Mb

The definite security reference and guide to the new programming platform from Microsoft. Written by people who have designed and implemented the security features and infrastructure in the .NET Framework that ASP.NET, C#, VB or Managed C++ applications run on.
From the Back Cover
In 1997, Microsoft embarked on a "bet the company" strategy that was to reinvent the way the company did business. Even before its release, .NET made major strides in reinventing the way that software developers viewed the software they wrote. Now that it is released, .NET and the .NET Framework will change the software development process for good.

.NET Framework Security provides the ultimate high-end comprehensive reference to all of the new security features available in .NET. Through extensive code samples and step-by-step walkthroughs of configuration techniques, the reader is taken deep into the world of secure applications. Demonstrations of creating custom procedures and a full explanation of each aspect separate this book from many other "lecture books." Many of the concepts expressed in this book are not only viable in .NET, but on the Internet in general. These factors combined make this the one reference that every developer and system administrator should have.

Hitchhiker's Guide to Visual Studio and SQL Server: 

Best Practice Architectures and Examples, 7th Edition
1128 pages | CHM | 44 MB


Since 1994 when he wrote his first “Hitchhiker’s Guide”, William Vaughn has been providing developers all over the world the intimate details of how SQL Server can be accessed and managed from RAD languages like Visual Basic and Visual Basic .NET. With the 7th Edition, Bill has completely rewritten this encyclopedic work from cover to cover–giving readers his insightful views on how applications should be built to maximize both developer and code performance. Visual Studio and the languages it hosts have never been as sophisticated as they are today–the same can be said for SQL Server. This makes it even more important for developers to understand how to best leverage their features without being held back by their complexity. That’s what this book is all about–making it easier for developers regardless of their know-how.

The 7th edition is unique in that it’s designed to provide not only up-to-date tutorials on the latest development tools provided by Visual Studio and SQL Server, but also a solid platform of architectural advice and rich examples for developers trying to choose between the myriad of platform options. Beginners and experts alike will find comprehensive step-by step instructions that can make the reader’s introduction to the latest versions of Visual  Studio and SQL Server far easier.
