Write optimized queries. This book helps you write queries that perform fast and deliver results on time. You will learn that query optimization is not a dark art practiced by a small, secretive cabal of sorcerers. Any motivated professional can learn to write efficient queries from the get-go and capably optimize existing queries. You will learn to look at the process of writing a query from the database engine’s point of view, and know how to think like the database optimizer. The book begins with a discussion of what a performant system is and progresses to measuring performance and setting performance goals. It introduces different classes of queries and optimization techniques suitable to each, such as the use of indexes and specific join algorithms. You will learn to read and understand query execution plans along with techniques for influencing those plans for better performance. The book also covers advanced topics such as the use of functions and procedures, dynamic SQL, and generated queries. All of these techniques are then used together to produce performant applications, avoiding the pitfalls of object-relational mappers. This second edition includes new examples using Postgres 15 and the newest version of the PostgresAir database. It includes additional details and clarifications about advanced topics, and covers configuration parameters in greater depth. Finally, it makes use of advancements in NORM, using automatically generated functions.

This book focuses in detail on Data Science and data analysis and emphasizes the importance of data engineering and data management in the design of Big Data applications. The author uses patterns discovered in a collection of Big Data applications to provide design principles for hypothesis generation, integrating Big Data processing and management, Machine Learning and data mining techniques. The book proposes and explains innovative principles for interpreting hypotheses by integrating micro-explanations (those based on the explanation of analytical models and individual decisions within them) with macro-explanations (those based on applied processes and model generation). Practical case studies are used to demonstrate how hypothesis-generation and -interpretation technologies work. These are based on “social infrastructure” applications like in-bound tourism, disaster management, lunar and planetary exploration, and treatment of infectious diseases. The novel methods and technologies proposed in Hypothesis Generation and Interpretation are supported by the incorporation of historical perspectives on science and an emphasis on the origin and development of the ideas behind their design principles and patterns. In the Big Data era, characterized by volume, variety, and velocity, which generates a large amount of diverse data at high speed, the role of a hypothesis is more important to generate the final value, and such a hypothesis is more complicated and complex than ever. At the same time, the era of Big Data creates new vague concerns for end users as to whether Big Data relevant to them will be used appropriately.

The book concentrates on the impact of digitalization and digital transformation technologies on the Industry 4.0 and smart factories, how the factory of tomorrow can be designed, built, and run virtually as a digital twin likeness of its real-world counterpart, before the physical structure is actually erected. It highlights the main digitalization technologies that have stimulated the Industry 4.0, how these technologies work and integrate with each other, and how they are shaping the industry of the future. It examines how multimedia data and digital images in particular are being leveraged to create fully virtualized worlds in the form of digital twin factories and fully virtualized industrial assets. It uses BMW Group’s latest SORDI dataset (Synthetic Object Recognition Dataset for Industry), i.e., the largest industrial images dataset to-date and its applications at BMW Group and Idealworks, as one of the main explanatory scenarios throughout the book. For decades, computer scientists attempted and failed to develop computer vision algorithms that could reliably identify what is inside an image—telling us whether an image contains a cat or a dog. Most had given up hope that we would solve this problem in our lifetime. That was until the invention of AlexNet ignited the Big Bang of modern Artificial Intelligence. There’s a beautiful duality to 3D computer graphics and computer vision. 3D computer graphics is a function that transforms a structured description of a 3D world into images over time—a simulation of what a camera sensor would experience in that world. Computer vision is the inverse of this function; transforming images over time into a structured representation of the 3D world. The AIs that will be the most impactful and valuable to human-kind will be the ones that can understand our real world and operate within it. To create these AIs, we must first model the real world and simulate it to generate the life experience for them.
