Updating a complex GIS database - the Northern Ireland experience

January 1992

M.J.D. Brand

The current enthusiasm for Geographic Information Systems is seeing intense effort and resource being devoted to digital conversion and subsequent creation, of a wide range of databases. Unfortunately in many instances little, if any, attention is given at planning stage to an equally significant factor - their maintenance. Without proper in-built provision for this from project inception, ... [Show full abstract] remedial action at a later stage may well prove impossible. This is particularly relevant in the case of a long term programme where maintenance must move forward in tandem with continuing digital conversion. -from Author

Procjena ukupnih troškova projekata u visokogradnji

January 1970

The paper starts by emphasizing that the analysis of overall project costs is one of major features of modern-day procurement of work in the sphere of building construction. The overall project cost concept is described. Major classification systems currently used in construction industry are presented, and the emphasis is placed on the development of new, consistent and flexible framework for ...

THE DESCRIPTIVE MODEL OF LIFE AREA IN SMALL URBAN DISTRICT : A fundamental study of architectural ma...

March 2003 · Journal of Architecture and Planning (Transactions of AIJ)

The main aim of this study is to develop the method of keeping the quality of residential area and the standard of community facilities in the built-up area. The purpose of this study is to materialize and diagram automatically the descriptive model of "Life Area", the area of activity on foot, as fundamental criteria for above aim. The descriptive model is proposed and tested in two actual ... [Show full abstract] areas. Through analyzing the form of Life Area, the criteria about the expanse pattern of activities and the organization of residential districts to deepen the understanding of the Life Area's character are conceptualized in several ways.

Asynchronous Consistency Restoration under Epsilon Serializability

February 1970

Many database applications tolerate a certain amount of data inconsistency to gain increased concurrent processing and to accommodate realworld constraints. This paper describes how inconsistency can be modeled in a database and managed with consistency restoration methods. The correctness criterion for the maintenance of inconsistency is epsilon serializability (ESR). An informal notation to ... [Show full abstract] characterize inconsistency and several consistency restoration techniques are described. 1 Introduction An important problem in object-oriented multidatabases is the support for updates. Traditional on-line transaction processing provides the update support in classic databases, but on-line transaction processing does not scale up to multidatabases in terms of performance (increased level of concurrency), availability, and execution autonomy, due to its requirement that all distributed transactions must be atomic [8] according to the serializability (SR) correctness criterion [2, 16]. Asynchronou...
