Book Description

Whether you're a database designer, programmer, analyst, or manager, you've probably encountered some of the challenges-and experienced some of the frustrations-associated with time-varying data.

Where do you turn to fix the problem and see that it doesn't happen again? In Developing Time-Oriented Database Applications in SQL, a leading SQL researcher teaches you effective techniques for designing and building database applications that must integrate past and current data.

Richard Snodgrass and his colleagues have explored temporal data concepts over the last two decades. They now have a fairly complete solution to the problems. Indeed the concepts are now being added to the SQL language standard. This book summarizes their work and presents it in a very accessible and useful way.

• Richard Thomas Snodgrass is an American computer scientist and writer, currently employed as a professor at the University of Arizona.
