seemingly intricate things in nature can be understood in terms of relatively straightforward mathematical relationships. These mathematical relationships are a recurring concept in the fields of Kinematics and Dynamics which focuses on ways in which objects/matter move whilst evaluating behaviours like displacement‚ acceleration and velocity (Wise Geek‚ 03-13). Kinematics derives its name from the Greek word for “motion” (kinema) (Sparknotes‚ 2011). This field is centred under a sub branch of mechanics

I. Column Oriented Database A column-oriented DBMS is a database management system (DBMS) that stores data tables as sections of columns of data rather than as rows of data. In comparison‚ most relational DBMSs store data in rows. This column-oriented DBMS has advantages for data warehouses‚ customer relationship management (CRM) systems‚ and library card catalogs‚ and other ad hoc inquiry systems where aggregates are computed over large numbers of similar data items. It is possible to achieve

When the packets are received they are reassembled in a proper sequence to make up the message. These packets do not depend on any path or connection and can take as many paths as necessary; this process is to maintain data integrity depending on the traffic load. The packet switched networks are used in LAN networks. The circuit switched

Business Processes 1. Consider the four definitions of information presented in this chapter. The problem with the first definition‚ “knowledge derived from data‚” is that it merely substitutes one word we don’t know the meaning of (information) for a second word we don’t know the meaning of (knowledge).
