Going Away
Usually immigrants leave their native land to seek a better life elsewhere, and their successes are remembered. Ludwig Karl Ritter and Greta Adele Ritter, a married couple, and their three children left Germany in 1906 and settled in California. Their life in the United States was not altogether successful. The Ritters’ hope was to become rich, and Ludwig’s and Greta’s sojourn in this country began pleasantly enough. But a rift between them began. The Ritters’ desire for land took them to the San Joaquin Valley. With no background in farming, they established an orchard, learned to manage livestock, and built the family house. The personal costs of acquisition were great, for now the...
Letters from America
The 1906 San Francisco earthquake served as a magnet for many European immigrants skilled in the building trades. One such immigrant family, the Ritters, came to the San Francisco Bay area via Galveston, Texas, in search of employment. They settled in the East Bay and hoped to work, raise their children, and grow prosperous. In a series of letters written over several years to their relatives in Germany, Ludwig and Greta Ritter expressed their dreams, doubts, prejudices, and frustrations. Letters from America chronicles their experiences in California and exposes the growing conflict between husband and wife as they struggle to survive in the midst of nearly constant turmoil. Through honest ...
Cloud Computing and Services Science
This book constitutes extended, revised and selected papers from the 6th International Conference on Cloud Computing and Services Science, CLOSER 2016, held in Rome, Italy, in April 2016. The 16 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 123 submissions. The volume also contains two invited papers. CLOSER 2016 focused on the emerging area of cloud computing, inspired by recent advances related to infrastructures, operations, and service availability through global networks. It also studied the influence of service science in this area.
Service-Oriented Computing ICSOC 2006
This book constitutes the workshops of the 4th International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing, ICSOC 2006, held in Chicago, IL, USA in December 2006. The two workshops presented were carefully reviewed and selected from six submissions. Both ICSOC'06 workshops were held as one-day-workshops on December 4th 2006, i.e. the day before the major conference program of ICSOC'06 started. This volume contains separate descriptions of both workshops as well as all high-quality paper contributions to these two workshops.
Transactions on Large-Scale Data- and Knowledge-Centered Systems XXXIV
This volume, the 34th issue of Transactions on Large-Scale Data- and Knowledge-Centered Systems, constitutes a special issue consisting of seven papers on the subject of Consistency and Inconsistency in Data-Centric Applications. The volume opens with an invited article on basic postulates for inconsistency measures. Three of the remaining six papers are revised, extended versions of papers presented at the First International Workshop on Consistency and Inconsistency, COIN 2016, held in conjunction with DEXA 2016 in Porto, Portugal, in September 2016. The other three papers were selected from submissions to a call for contributions to this edition. Each of the papers highlights a particular subtopic. However, all are concerned with logical inconsistencies that are either to be systematically avoided, or reasoned with consistently, i.e., without running the danger of an explosion of inferences.
Service-Oriented Computing - ICSOC 2011 Workshops
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 2011 ICSOC Workshops consisting of 5 scientific satellite events, organized in 4 tracks: workshop track (WESOA 2011; NFPSLAM-SOC 2011), PhD symposium track, demonstration track, and industry track; held in conjunction with the 2011 International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing (ICSOC), in Paphos, Greece, December 2011. The 39 revised papers presented together with 2 introductory descriptions address topics such as software engineering services; the management of service level agreements; Web services and service composition; general or domain-specific challenges of service-oriented computing and its transition towards cloud computing; architecture and modeling of services; workflow management; performance analysis as well as crowdsourcing for improving service processes and for knowledge discovery.
Advances in Databases and Information Systems
This volume contains the best papers presented at the 12th East-European Conference on Advances in Databases and Information Systems (ADBIS 2008) held during S- tember 5–9, 2008, in Pori, Finland. The series of ADBIS conferences is the successor of the annual international workshops with the same title that during 1993-1996 were organized in Russia by the Moscow ACM SIGMOD Chapter. ADBIS 2008 continues the series of ADBIS conferences held in St. Petersburg, Russia (1997), Poznan, Poland (1998), Maribor, Slovenia (1999), Prague, Czech Republic (2000), Vilnius, Lithuania (2001), Bratislava, Slovakia (2002), Dresden, Germany (2003), Budapest, Hungary (2004), Tallinn, Estonia (2005), Thessalon...
Cloud Computing – CLOUD 2018
This volume constitutes the proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Cloud Computing, CLOUD 2018, held as part of the Services Conference Federation, SCF 2018, in Seattle, WA, USA, in June 2018.The 26 full papers presented together with 3 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 108 submissions. They are organized in topical sections such as cloud computing; client-server architectures; distributed systems organizing principles; storage virtualization; virtual machines; cloud based storage; distributed architectures; network services; and computing platforms.
Service-Oriented Computing
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th Symposium and Summer School on Service-Oriented Computing, SummerSOC 2021, held in September 2021. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic the conference was held online. The 9 full and 2 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 24 submissions. The papers are organized in topical secions on quantum computing; advanced application architecture; service-based applications.
