Parallel Systems in the Data Warehouse
Discover why parallel computing offers an ideal foundation for enterprise-scale data warehousing - and how to make the right strategic and tactical decisions about these critical technologies. What are the right questions to ask? What aren't the vendors telling you? How do benchmarks relate to real-world results? Parallel Systems in the Data Warehouse evaluates all three major parallel hardware architectures, comparing scalability, performance and sustainable I/O bandwidth: symmetric multiprocessors (SMP), distributed memory (DM) or 'massively parallel' machines, and distributed shared memory (DSM) systems ('non-uniform memory access' machines). Consistently high throughput is critical to the success of data warehousing - and traditional techniques like normalization and indexing aren't enough anymore. Learn smarter table partitioning strategies, star schema and other powerful techniques to fully exploit the inherent scalability and high I/O bandwidth of parallel hardware. - Books Reading - New - 461122474

Step into a World A Global Anthology of the New Black Literature
Step Into A World 'Kevin Powell is pushing to bring, as he has so brilliantly done before, the voices of his generation: the concerns, the cares, the fears, and the fearlessness. Step into a World is a kaleidoscope into the world not bound by artificial constructs like nation. John Coltrane recorded ?Giant Steps,? which is a riff on the sight and sounds in his muse. Powell plays the computer with equal astuteness.' ?Nikki Giovanni 'Those of us who pay attention were aware that the younger generation of black writers was being smothered by the anointment of talented tenth Divas and Divuses, and their commercial accommodationist ?Fourth Renaissance. ?This anthology is indeed a breakthrough! It combines the boldness and daring of hip-hop with the intellectual keenness of a Michele Wallace or a Clyde Taylor.' ?Ishmael Reed 'In a culture where videos, the Internet, and other high-tech communication is being consumed like the latest mind-altering drug, how does great literature grow and survive? These writers will answer that all-important question. This anthology provides a clue, a hint, as to where we might be going. They are resisting all this vacant, empty-minded nothingness. Read them. Listen to them. If you don?t, you do so at your peril.' ?Quincy Troupe - Books Reading - New - 461124601
