In the 1980s, traditional Business Intelligence (BI) systems focused on the delivery of reports that describe the state of business activities in the past, such as for questions like "How did our sales perform during the last quarter?" A decade later, there was a shift to more interactive content that presented how the business was performing at the present time, answering questions like "How are we doing right now?" Today the focus of BI users are looking into the future. "Given what I did before and how I am currently doing this quarter, how will I do next quarter?" Furthermore, fuelled by the demands of Big Data, BI systems are going through a time of incredible change. Predictive analytics, high volume data, unstructured data, social data, mobile, consumable analytics, and data visualization are all examples of demands and capabilities that have become critical within just the past few years, and are growing at an unprecedented pace. This book introduces research problems and solutions on various aspects central to next-generation BI systems. It begins with a chapter on an industry perspective on how BI has evolved, and discusses how game-changing trends have drastically reshaped the landscape of BI. One of the game changers is the shift toward the consumerization of BI tools. As a result, for BI tools to be successfully used by business users (rather than IT departments), the tools need a business model, rather than a data model. One chapter of the book surveys four different types of business modeling. However, even with the existence of a business model for users to express queries, the data that can meet the needs are still captured within a data model. The next chapter on vivification addresses the problem of closing the gap, which is often significant, between the business and the data models. Moreover, Big Data forces BI systems to integrate and consolidate multiple, and often wildly different, data sources. One chapter gives an overview of several integration architectures for dealing with the challenges that need to be overcome. While the book so far focuses on the usual structured relational data, the remaining chapters turn to unstructured data, an ever-increasing and important component of Big Data. One chapter on information extraction describes methods for dealing with the extraction of relations from free text and the web. Finally, BI users need tools to visualize and interpret new and complex types of information in a way that is compelling, intuitive, but accurate. The last chapter gives an overview of information visualization for decision support and text.

Fotreise fra Holmens Kanal til østpynten av Amager i årene 1828 og 1829

Fotreise regnes vanligvis som H. C. Andersens litterære debut. Med utgangspunkt i en spasertur, skildres København. Det er ikke byens topografi, arkitektur eller folkeliv som skildres, men byens litterære liv i siste halvdel av 1820-årene. På tilsvarende måte er den en skildring av en reise i fantasien og i litteraturen. Boken har referanser til tidens litterære debatt og til aktuelle teaterbegivenheter.

Nytårsnat mellem år 1828 og 1829 begiver en ung digter sig ud på en kort rejse, som dog skal vise sig at føre ham vidt omkring. På den iskolde nytårsnat kommer han blandt andet på en tidsrejse til år 2129, får et glimt af selve Helvede, ser Døden komme ridende i fuld karet og låner briller med røntgensyn af Sankt Peder. ”Fodrejse fra Holmens Kanal til østpynten af Amager i 1828-1829” er H. C. Andersens debut som romanforfatter, og den stråler af ungdommelig sprælskhed og finurlig fantasi.Hans Christian Andersen (1805-1875) er en af Danmarks højst elskede forfattere og velsagtens den mest kendte dansker i verden. Han var en af de førende kulturpersonligheder inden for den danske guldalder og udmærkede sig inden for både poesi, kunsteventyr, romaner og papirklip. H.C. Andersen er født i Odense, hvor der er oprettet et museum til ære for ham.
When Israel declared its independence in 1948, Harry Truman issued a memo recognizing the Israeli government within eleven minutes. Today, the U.S. and Israel continue on as partners in an at times controversial alliance—an alliance, many argue, that is powerfully influenced by the Christian Right. In The Fervent Embrace, Caitlin Carenen chronicles the American Christian relationship with Israel, tracing first mainline Protestant and then evangelical support for Zionism. In the aftermath of the Holocaust, American liberal Protestants argued that America had a moral humanitarian duty to support Israel. Christian anti-Semitism had helped bring about the Holocaust, they declared, and so Christians must help make amends. Moreover, a stable and democratic Israel would no doubt make the Middle East a safer place for future American interests. Carenen argues that it was this mainline Protestant position that laid the foundation for the current evangelical Protestant support for Israel, which is based primarily on theological grounds. Drawing on previously unexplored archival material from the Central Zionist Archives in Israel, this volume tells the full story of the American Christian-Israel relationship, bringing the various “players”—American liberal Protestants, American Evangelicals, American Jews, and Israelis—together into one historical narrative.

An Introductory History of the United States in the Middle East situates American action in the Middle East within the context of American history and foreign policy. Students explore the culture, social issues, and politics of the United States in order to better understand the motivations behind American involvement in the Middle East.Organized into 10 chapters, the book progresses chronologically, highlighting relations between the United States and the Middle East from the turn of the century to the present. Students learn how American ideas of manifest destiny and empire led to consistent intervention in the Middle East, especially after World War II. Dedicated chapters articulate the goals and motivations of the U.S. in the Middle East during early oil exploration, the World Wars, the Cold War, the Iranian Revolution, the oil crises of the 1970s, the Iran-Iraq War, the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, and the modern war on terrorism.An Introductory History of the United States in the Middle East is an ideal resource for courses in American foreign policy and history.
After losing his family in a tragic auto accident in Georgia, Thomas O'Shea finds himself driving around the Iowa countryside, searching for peace. He stops to admire a unique mailbox, only to see a beautiful woman running down the country lane from her home toward him, screaming for help. At first, Thomas considers staying out of it all, but his SEAL training and a penchant for justice won't let him. With nothing left to lose, he risks snooping around in Rockbluff, an outwardly peaceful place not far from his childhood hometown, and uncovers a plot to rob local residents of their prime farmland. Struggling to find a new will to live, he discovers that the sometimes quirky characters of Rockbluff are ready and willing to help him do just that.
Suffering from insomnia, wise-cracking tough guy Thomas O'Shea goes for a late-night stroll through the peaceful streets of Rockbluff, Iowa. Pausing downtown on the bridge spanning the Whitetail River, something catches his eye. He scrambles down to the riverbank, where he discovers the nude body of a young girl with bullet holes in the back of her head. When the coroner's report lists the cause of death as "drowning," Thomas confronts him but is met with hostility. Then, mysteriously, the coroner and his wife disappear, along with the body of the dead girl. Thomas teams up with a buddy from his Navy SEAL days and a local Ojibwa bar owner named Lunatic in order to bring justice to the girl...and they walk straight into the world of organized crime.
