Product facts administration is utilized in the advance of product information and methods, whereas its counterpart, software program configuration administration, is worried with the evolution of software program items. regardless of the need of interoperation of the 2 fields, there's little cooperation or communique among them. Hoping to handle this challenge, Crnkovic (computer technology and engineering, Mälardalen U., Sweden), Asklund (computer technology, Lund U., Sweden), and Dahlqvist (business unit transmission and transportation, Ericsson AB) supply overviews of the 2 strategies individually and relating to one another. They then study the probabilities of integrating the methodological instruments. a couple of case stories from huge foreign businesses are awarded.

This e-book constitutes the completely refereed post-proceedings of the 4th overseas convention on Large-Scale clinical Computations, LSSC 2003, held in Sozopol, Bulgaria in June 2003.

The 50 revised complete papers awarded including five invited papers have been rigorously reviewed and chosen for inclusion within the publication. The papers are equipped in topical sections on preconditioning ideas, Monte Carlo equipment and quasi-Monte-Carlo tools, set-value of numerics and trustworthy computing, environmental modeling, and large-scale computations for engineering problems.

An obtainable creation to using regression research within the social sciences

Regression with Social information: Modeling non-stop and restricted reaction Variables represents the main entire and completely built-in insurance of regression modeling presently on hand for graduate-level behavioral technology scholars and practitioners. masking thoughts that span the whole spectrum of degrees of size for either non-stop and restricted reaction variables, and utilizing examples taken from such disciplines as sociology, psychology, political technology, and public wellbeing and fitness, the writer succeeds in demystifying an academically rigorous topic and making it obtainable to a much wider viewers.

Content comprises assurance of:

• Logit, probit, scobit, truncated, and censored regressions
• Multiple regression with ANOVA and ANCOVA versions
• Binary and multinomial reaction types
• Poisson, adverse binomial, and different regression types for event-count data
• Survival research utilizing multistate, multiepisode, and interval-censored survival models

Concepts are bolstered all through with a number of bankruptcy difficulties, workouts, and genuine facts units. step by step suggestions plus an appendix of mathematical tutorials make even advanced difficulties available to readers with simply reasonable math talents. The book’s logical stream, extensive applicability, and uniquely complete insurance make it either an incredible textual content for a number of graduate path settings and an invaluable reference for practising researchers within the box.

This e-book introduces SpecDB, an clever database created to symbolize and host software program requisites in a machine-readable structure, in accordance with the foundations of man-made intelligence and unit checking out database operations. SpecDB is validated through automatic clever instruments. the 1st immediately generates database constraints from a rule-base in SpecDB. the second one is a opposite engineering software that logs the particular execution of this system from the code.

You can now discover the secrets and techniques in the back of gaining access to and retrieving info from quite a lot of info resources reminiscent of SQL Server and XML resources. This ebook walks you thru the array of ADO.NET 2.0 beneficial properties and obviously exhibits you the way they are often used to increase database-driven internet purposes in ASP.NET.
You’ll first achieve an in-depth realizing of the information resource controls that let information binding within the ASP.NET platform. subsequent you’ll discover the complicated good points of ASP.NET, together with web site navigation, imposing sorting and paging, and enhancing information in templates. You’ll then specialise in designing transactions in ADO.NET 2.0, showing info, and using SQL Server 2005 XML.
Throughout the chapters, you’ll locate examples and resource code (with ASP.NET examples written in C#) so you might combine into your functions. this can show you how to leverage ADO.NET and ASP.NET gains so that you can simply create a scalable N-Tier internet site.
Some of the themes coated include:
ASP.NET 2.0 information Controls
Data Binding with the SqlDataSource keep an eye on, XML info, and Objects
Selecting, Updating, Deleting Records
Programmatically growing and including Controls
XSL modifications with XmlDataSource Control
Using Generics with the ObjectDataSource Control
ASP.NET 2.0 web site Navigation together with imposing Breadcrumbs and Binding to different Controls
Displaying and modifying info utilizing Templates
GridView Sorting and Paging
Advanced information resource and Data-Bound Controls together with Master/Detail show, exhibiting photos from a Database, and utilizing topics with information sure Controls
Transactions in .NET and Interoperability among System.Transactions and System.EnterpriseServices
Advanced ADO.NET for ASP.NET info show together with DataSet item, ADO.NET 2.0 DataTable, and Provider-Independent information entry Code
Accessing facts from SQL Server 2005 together with CLR in SQL Server 2005, New XML positive factors in SQL Server 2005, and dealing with XML Data-Typed Columns from ADO.NET
N-Tier structure with ASP.NET 2.0 and SQL Server 2005
