Description
"As organizations have become more sophisticated, pressure to provide information sharing across dissimilar platforms has mounted.
In addition, advances in distributed computing and networking combined with the affordable high level of connectivity, are making information
sharing across databases closer to being accomplished...With the advent of the internet, intranets, and affordable network connectivity,
business reengineering has become a necessity for modern corporations to stay competitive in the global market...An end-user in a heterogeneous
computing environment should be able to not only invoke multiple exiting software systems and hardware devices, but also coordinate their
interactions."--From the Introduction
Seventeen leaders in the field contributed chapters specifically for this unique book,
together providing the most comprehensive resource on managing multidatabase systems involving heterogeneous and autonomous databases
available today. The book covers virtually all fundamental issues, concepts, and major research topics.
