A comprehensive collection of essential articles illustrating the breadth and depth of database technology. The selection of contributors, combined with Dr. Stonebraker's thorough and provocative introductions to each section, offer insights to the current state of database systems and their potential for future development.

Readings in Database Systems

The latest edition of a popular text and reference on database research, with substantial new material and revision; covers classical literature and recent hot topics. Lessons from database research have been applied in academic fields ranging from bioinformatics to next-generation Internet architecture and in industrial uses including Web-based e-commerce and search engines. The core ideas in the field have become increasingly influential. This text provides both students and professionals with a grounding in database research and a technical context for understanding recent innovations in the field. The readings included treat the most important issues in the database area--the basic material for any DBMS professional. This fourth edition has been substantially updated and revised, with 21 of the 48 papers new to the edition, four of them published for the first time. Many of the sections have been newly organized, and each section includes a new or substantially revised introduction that discusses the context, motivation, and controversies in a particular area, placing it in the broader perspective of database research. Two introductory articles, never before published, provide an organized, current introduction to basic knowledge of the field; one discusses the history of data models and query languages and the other offers an architectural overview of a database system. The remaining articles range from the classical literature on database research to treatments of current hot topics, including a paper on search engine architecture and a paper on application servers, both written expressly for this edition. The result is a collection of papers that are seminal and also accessible to a reader who has a basic familiarity with database systems.

Heterogeneous Data Management, Polystores, and Analytics for Healthcare

George Teodoro

This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of International Workshops: Polystores and other Systems for Heterogeneous Data, Poly 2018, and Data Management and Analytics for Medicine and Healthcare, DMAH 2018, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in August 2018, held in conjunction with the 44th International Conference on Very Large Data Bases, VLDB 2018. The 11 regular papers presented together with 2 invited papers and 1 abstract of a keynote talk were carefully reviewed and selected from 16 initial submissions. The Poly 2018 Workshop focus on growing a larger and more diverse research agenda around data system solutions for heterogeneous data. The DMAH 2018 Workshop aims to foster exchange of information and discussions on innovative data management and analytics technologies.
