Product Description
ThoughtWorks is a well-known global consulting firm; ThoughtWorkers are leaders in areas of design, architecture, SOA, testing, and agile methodologies. This collection of essays brings together contributions from well-known ThoughtWorkers such as Martin Fowler, along with other authors you may not know yet. While ThoughtWorks is perhaps best known for their work in the Agile community, this anthology confronts issues throughout the software development life cycle. From technology issues that transcend methodology, to issues of realizing business value from applications, you’ll find it here.

Product Description
This volume constitutes the proceedings of the Third International United Information Systems Conference, UNISCON 2009, which was held in Sydney, Australia, during April 21-24, 2009.
UNISCON 2009 combines three different events: 8th International Conference on Information Systems Technology and its Applications (ISTA 2009), 8th International Workshop on Conceptual Modelling Approaches for e-Business (eCOMO 2009), and 2nd International Workshop on Model-Based Software and Data Integration (MBSDI 2009).
The overall 39 full papers and 14 short papers presented with two keynote speeches were carefully reviewed and selected from 115 submissions. The topics covered are: information systems modelling; information systems analysis; information systems integration; business process modelling; information retrieval and NLP; e-learning and training; datamining, datawarehousing, and visualization; and Web intelligence.

Product Description
The increasing use of XML is necessitating a general storage and retrieval system that can handle the specific needs of XML document archival. Infonyte provides a Native XML Data store (NXD) solution that is a compact called Infonyte-DB that uses a persistent implementation of the Document Object Model (DOM) as its primary storage mechanism.

Effect of particle phase oligomer formation on aerosol growth

Description:
We study theoretically the effect of oligomer formation on secondary organic aerosol (SOA) growth following ozonolysis of @a-pinene. Our goal is to show qualitatively, using a simplified condensational growth model, that the formation of involatile oligomers can induce the condensation growth of aerosols even if the secondary organic species formed in the oxidation reactions are rather volatile and therefore poorly condensable. The closed system studied consists of a single effective gas-phase oxidation product, and a seed aerosol population consisting of monodisperse ammonium sulphate particles. The oligomer formation is described as an effective dimerisation reaction between the monomers in the aerosol phase. By varying the dimerisation constant until our model results match the results from earlier smog-chamber studies, we are able to make order-of-magnitude estimations of the unknown dimerisation rates needed to induce the observed SOA growth. We also make model simulations using atmospheric @a-pinene and ozone concentrations, and find that the effective dimerisation rate inducing SOA growth in the atmosphere has to be considerably higher than that causing SOA growth in smog-chamber conditions.

Description:
A volatility-tandem differential mobility analyzer (VTDMA) was designed to monitor the non-volatile fraction of reaction chamber-generated organic aerosol particles. Using a coiled-tube heater for particle volatilization, an analysis of the carrier gas temperatures was made for wall temperatures of 100, 150, and 200^@?C. Oligomerization in organic aerosol particles generated from irradiations of @a-pinene/NO”x/H”2O/pure air in a reaction chamber shows a strong linear relationship with time and has an oligomerization rate of 1.3%h^-^1 for the 100^@?C wall temperature case. This rate is almost three times slower than the previously published rate for irradiations of 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene/NO”x/H”2O/pure air. In addition, experiments using the VTDMA demonstrated that oligomerization of nebulizer-generated methylglyoxal particles can occur in the absence of NO”x, propene, and irradiation. The oligomerization of organic aerosol particles has implications which are highly relevant to the atmosphere, such as influencing hygroscopic growth and cloud condensation nuclei activation.
