Oracle Database Performance and Scalability

Book Description

A data-driven, fact-based, quantitative text on and scalability

With concepts and theories clearly explained in ’s context, readers quickly learn how to fully leverage ’s and scalability capabilities at every stage of and developing an Oracle-based enterprise application. The book is based on the author’s more than ten years of experience working with Oracle, and is filled with dependable, tested, and proven performance optimization techniques.

Oracle Performance and Scalability is divided into four parts that enable readers to progressively learn and apply new skills:

  • Part 1, Getting Started with Oracle, describes how to set up a working Oracle environment, offering a quick tour to illustrate major database concepts
  • Part 2, Oracle from Performance and Scalability Perspectives, explains all the major database concepts and architectural features that readers need to know to optimize Oracle performance and scalability
  • Part 3, Optimizing Oracle Performance and Scalability, offers hands-on instructions to optimize and fine-tune performance and scalability for all database applications
  • Part 4, Case Studies: Oracle Meeting Real-World Performance and Scalability Challenges, sets forth quantitative case studies based on the author’s first-hand experience that demonstrate how readers can apply proven techniques to dramatically improve the performance and scalability of actual database products

In addition to case studies, this book offers a detailed secure online banking application as an example, making it possible for readers to fully explore Oracle’s performance and scalability features on their own. Performance and Scalability is an ideal text for pre-conditioning college students and training developers.

Software Performance and Scalability

Book Description

“The practicality of the subject in a real-world situation distinguishes this book from others available on the market.”
—Professor Behrouz Far, University of Calgary

“This book could replace the organization texts now in use that every CS and CpE student must take. . . . It is much needed, well written, and thoughtful.”
—Professor Larry Bernstein, Stevens Institute of Technology

A distinctive, educational text onsoftware and scalability

This is the first book to take a quantitative approach to the subject of and scalability. It brings together three unique perspectives to demonstrate how your products can be optimized and tuned for the best possible and scalability:

  • The Basics—introduces the hardware and architectures that predetermine the performance and scalability of a product as well as the principles of measuring the performance and scalability of a product
  • Queuing Theory—helps you learn the performance laws and queuing models for interpreting the underlying physics behind software performance and scalability, supplemented with ready-to-apply techniques for improving the performance and scalability of a software system
  • Profiling—shows you how to design more efficient algorithms and achieve optimized performance and scalability, aided by adopting an profiling framework (perfBasic) built on the concept of a performance map for drilling down performance root causes at the level

Software Performance and Scalability gives you a specialized skill set that will enable you to design and build performance into your products with immediate, measurable improvements. Complemented with real-world case studies, it is an indispensable resource for software developers, quality and performance assurance engineers, architects, and managers. It is anideal text for university courses related to computer and software performance evaluation and can also be used to supplement a course in computer organization or in queuing theory for upper-division and graduate computer science students.

Introduction to Differential Calculus

Book Description

Enables readers to apply the fundamentals of differential calculus to solve real-life problems in engineering and the physical sciences

Introduction to Differential Calculus fully engages readers by presenting the fundamental theories and methods of differential calculus and then showcasing how the discussed concepts can be applied to real-world problems in engineering and the physical sciences. With its easy-to-follow style and accessible explanations, the book sets a solid foundation before advancing to specific calculus methods, demonstrating the connections between differential calculus theory and its applications.

The first five chapters introduce underlying concepts such as algebra, , coordinate , and trigonometry. Subsequent chapters present a broad range of theories, methods, and applications in differential calculus, including:

  • Concepts of function, continuity, and derivative
  • Properties of exponential and logarithmic function
  • Inverse trigonometric functions and their properties
  • Derivatives of higher order
  • Methods to find maximum and minimum values of a function
  • Hyperbolic functions and their properties

Readers are equipped with the necessary tools to quickly learn how to understand a broad range of current problems throughout the physical sciences and engineering that can only be solved with calculus. Examples throughout provide practical guidance, and practice problems and exercises allow for further and fine-tuning of various calculus skills. Introduction to Differential Calculus is an excellent book for upper-undergraduate calculus courses and is also an ideal reference for students and professionals alike who would like to gain a further understanding of the use of calculus to solve problems in a simplified manner.

Book Details

  • Hardcover: 784 pages
