This is the definitive guide for Symbian C++ developers looking to use Symbian SQL in applications or system software. Since Symbian SQL and SQLite are relatively new additions to the Symbian platform, Inside Symbian SQL begins with an introduction to database theory and concepts, including a Structured Query Language (SQL) tutorial. Inside Symbian SQL also provides a detailed overview of the Symbian SQL APIs. From the outset, you will “get your hands dirty” writing Symbian SQL code. The book includes snippets and examples that application developers can immediately put to use to get started quickly. For device creators and system software developers, Inside Symbian SQL offers a unique view into the internals of the implementation and a wealth of practical advice on how to make best and most efficient use of the Symbian SQL database. Several case studies are presented – these are success stories 'from the trenches', written by Symbian engineers. Special Features: The book assumes no prior knowledge of databases Includes detailed and approachable explanations of database concepts Easy to follow SQL tutorial with SQLite examples Unique view into the Symbian SQL internals Troubleshooting section with solutions to common problems Written by the Symbian engineers who implemented SQLite on Symbian, with more than 40 years combined Symbian C++ experience, this book is for anyone interested in finding out more about using a database on Symbian.

Managing data in a mobile computing environment invariably involves caching or replication. In many cases, a mobile device has access only to data that is stored locally, and much of that data arrives via replication from other devices, PCs, and services. Given portable devices with limited resources, weak or intermittent connectivity, and security vulnerabilities, data replication serves to increase availability, reduce communication costs, foster sharing, and enhance survivability of critical information. Mobile systems have employed a variety of distributed architectures from client–server caching to peer-to-peer replication. Such systems generally provide weak consistency models in which read and update operations can be performed at any replica without coordination with other devices. The design of a replication protocol then centers on issues of how to record, propagate, order, and filter updates. Some protocols utilize operation logs, whereas others replicate state. Systems might provide best-effort delivery, using gossip protocols or multicast, or guarantee eventual consistency for arbitrary communication patterns, using recently developed pairwise, knowledge-driven protocols. Additionally, systems must detect and resolve the conflicts that arise from concurrent updates using techniques ranging from version vectors to read–write dependency checks. This lecture explores the choices faced in designing a replication protocol, with particular emphasis on meeting the needs of mobile applications. It presents the inherent trade-offs and implicit assumptions in alternative designs. The discussion is grounded by including case studies of research and commercial systems including Coda, Ficus, Bayou, Sybase’s iAnywhere, and Microsoft’s Sync Framework.

Programming language has rendered itself as the language of choice for coding beginners and advanced software programmers alike. This book is written to help you master the basic concepts of Python and SQL coding and how you can utilize your coding skills to analyze a large volume of data and uncover valuable information that can otherwise be easily lost in the volume. Python was designed primarily to emphasize readability of the programming code, and its syntax enables programmers to convey ideas using fewer lines of code. The Structured Query Language (SQL) is the language of choice define, manipulate, control and query the data within a RDBMS. Python programming, data analysis, and machine learning are widely credited in the birth of the powerhouse, which is the "Silicon Valley." To become a machine learning expert, a sound and in-depth understanding of every nuance of this area is critical. On the other hand, you can efficiently and effectively learn and write SQL statements or queries to retrieve from and update data on relational databases such as MySQL. You will be able to install the free and open MySQL user interface with the instructions provided in this book. Starting Arduino Programming allows you to rapidly and intuitively develop your programming abilities through sketching in code. This book provides you with an understanding of the standard structure for developing Arduino code, including the functions, syntax, structure, and libraries needed to produce future tasks. Some of the highlights of the book include: - Key features and advantages of learning to code Python as well as the history of how Python programming was created - Step-by-step instructions on how to install Python on your operating systems - Concept of Python data types is presented in exquisite detail with various examples of each data type - Learn how to create Python variables - Lists of a variety of built-in functions and methods supported by Python - Basic concepts of writing efficient and effective Python codes - A variety of SQL data types that are a pre-requisite for learning SQL have been explained in an easy-to-understand language - Learn how to create an effective database on the MySQL server as well as to create data tables - The key concept of SQL Joins is provided in exquisite detail including different SQL JOIN and the SQL Union functions - Learn CREATE VIEW, MERGE, TEMPTABLE, UNDEFINED, Updatable SQL Views, ALTER VIEW - The properties of SQL transactions - What is Arduino Programming - Stating Arrays - Arduino: Program Structure - Arduino: String Item Finally, as an added bonus you will learn some Python, SQL and Arduino tips and tricks to take your machine learning programming game to the next level. Remember, knowledge is power, and with the great power you will gather from this book, you will be armed to make sound personal and professional technological choices. Don't miss the opportunity to quickly learn a programming language like SQL. Don't you think it can be that easy? If you really want to have proof of all this, don't waste any more time!
