Prezentowana książka składa się z dwóch zasadniczych części. Część pierwsza ma charakter teoretyczny. Omawia genezę, rozwój, podstawy empiryczne i teoretyczne procesu klasyfikacji i grupowania danych. Jest pełna faktów, anegdot i własnych przemyśleń autorów. Część druga książki jest poświęcona szerokim badaniom teoretycznym, symulacyjnym i empirycznym nad własnościami samouczących się sieci neuronowych w grupowaniu danych społeczno-ekonomicznych. Szczegółowo omówiono algorytm budowy i samouczenia się trzech modeli sztucznych sieci neuronowych: SOM (Self Organizing Map), GNG (Growing Neural Gas) i sieci hybrydowej SOM-GNG. Zaproponowano także ich modyfikacje zwiększające zdolność badanych sieci do poprawnego wyróżniania istniejących skupień. W książce położono szczególny nacisk na możliwie prosty i przejrzysty opis często złożonych zjawisk. Poza koniecznym formalizmem matematycznym autorzy posługują się wieloma zaawansowanymi metodami wizualizacji omawianych zagadnień. Dzięki temu, mimo naukowego charakteru książki, może ona stanowić wartościowy podręcznik dla bardziej zaawansowanych studentów, praktyków i naukowców nie będących specjalistami w zakresie klasyfikacji i grupowania danych.

SAP on Azure Implementation Guide. Move your business data to the cloud
Nick Morgan, Bartosz Jarkowski
Cloud technologies have now reached a level where even the most critical business systems can run on them. For most organizations SAP is the key business system. If SAP is unavailable for any reason then potentially your business stops. Because of this, it is understandable that you will be concerned whether such a critical system can run in the public cloud. However, the days when you truly ran your IT system on-premises have long since gone. Most organizations have been getting rid of their own data centers and increasingly moving to co-location facilities. In this context the public cloud is nothing more than an additional virtual data center connected to your existing network.There are typically two main reasons why you may consider migrating SAP to Azure: You need to replace the infrastructure that is currently running SAP, or you want to migrate SAP to a new database. Depending on your goal SAP offers different migration paths. You can decide either to migrate the current workload to Azure as-is, or to combine it with changing the database and execute both activities as a single step. SAP on Azure Implementation Guide covers the main migration options to lead you through migrating your SAP data to Azure simply and successfully.
