Product Description A range of electronic corpora has become increasingly accessible via the WWW and CD-ROM. This development coincided with improvements in the standards governing the collecting, encoding and archiving of such data. Less attention, however, has been paid to making other types of digital data available. This is especially true of that which one might describe as 'unconventional', namely, dialects, child language and bilingual databases. This book is a first step toward developing similar standards for enriching and preserving these neglected resources. Book Description This book unites a range of approaches to the collection, handling and analysis of different types of synchronic corpora in digital format.

The process of disaster recovery involves mitigating the likelihood of a disaster and returning the system to a normal state. This book shows you how to implement an effective disaster recovery strategy for SQL Server 2005 databases. With the arrival of SQL Server 2005, you have access to enhanced existing features and powerful new tools, like database snapshots and mirroring, for data backup and disaster recovery. The book also covers fundamental changes to disaster recovery capabilities, and common issues to expect when using new features. The book examines the technical details of disaster recovery features, and then applies that information to practical scenarios. As businesses become increasingly reliant on the information they store in their various databases, effective data protection becomes ever more critical.
