As the shadow over Earth grows longer, deep space may hold the key — Earth is losing the war. A starship and a lone starbase may be our only hope.— In this third installment of the Sons of Neptune saga, Sam and Bohai have gone into outer space with Walter aboard the starship Praihawk to find help from their warlike ancestors, but what they find instead is a lonely starbase - which raises more questions than answers. Meanwhile, Dexter plans to return to Neptune to get revenge on his brother, and to find his wife. On Earth the invasion continues. At the Peak hotel, more survivors are coming to join Shane's group and to fight the aliens in a struggle for survival. As their group expands, not everyone can be trusted within their walls. And the shadow of Lusus, the alien rebel Commander, grows longer every day. Soon he will have the entire planet in his grasp. Time is running out. Saving Earth is no longer an option. Now their only hope lies somewhere beyond the stars. A thrilling next installment to the Sons of Neptune saga.
Despite the growing interest in Real-Time Database Systems, there is no single book that acts as a reference to academics, professionals, and practitioners who wish to understand the issues involved in the design and development of RTDBS. Real-Time Database Systems: Issues and Applications fulfills this need. This book presents the spectrum of issues that may arise in various real-time database applications, the available solutions and technologies that may be used to address these issues, and the open problems that need to be tackled in the future. With rapid advances in this area, several concepts have been proposed without a widely accepted consensus on their definitions and implications. To address this need, the first chapter is an introduction to the key RTDBS concepts and definitions, which is followed by a survey of the state of the art in RTDBS research and practice. The remainder of the book consists of four sections: models and paradigms, applications and benchmarks, scheduling and concurrency control, and experimental systems. The chapters in each section are contributed by experts in the respective areas. Real-Time Database Systems: Issues and Applications is primarily intended for practicing engineers and researchers working in the growing area of real-time database systems. For practitioners, the book will provide a much needed bridge for technology transfer and continued education. For researchers, this book will provide a comprehensive reference for well-established results. This book can also be used in a senior or graduate level course on real-time systems, real-time database systems, and database systems or closely related courses.
At the intersection of astronautics, computer science, and social science, this book introduces the challenges and insights associated with computer simulation of human society in outer space, and of the dynamics of terrestrial enthusiasm for space exploration. Never before have so many dynamic representations of space-related social systems existed, some deeply analyzing the logical implications of social-scientific theories, and others open for experience by the general public as computer-generated virtual worlds. Fascinating software ranges from multi-agent artificial intelligence models of civilization, to space-oriented massively multiplayer online games, to educational programs suitable for schools or even for the world's space exploration agencies. At the present time, when actual forays by humans into space are scarce, computer simulations of space societies are an excellent way to prepare for a renaissance of exploration beyond the bounds of Earth.
The book talks about how Fleet Admiral Chlebowski continues his voyage in the 3rd book of the Project Delta series. At first he finds himself in trouble for certain trivial things. The book talks about what goes on fictionally from January 2380 to July 2381 in a journal format within the story line. The question is: Will he have to face responsibility for what he did, or will he become innocent onboard his starship and his starbase?
