In this new edition of his popular title, Moving to VB .NET: Strategies, Concepts, and Code, Second Edition, Visual Basic guru Dan Appleman not only updates the book to include coverage of changes to Visual Basic .NET in Visual Studio .NET 2003, but extends the areas most important to VB .NET programmers since its release. Topics such as .NET remoting, versioning and object oriented programming are further illuminated using Appleman's own personable and highly effective style.
Appleman explains the why's and how's of the VB .NET technology features and the controversies around some of those choices. Evaluating VB .NET from the perspective of the developer, you’ll find material that may infuriate everybody from staunch VB traditionalists to Microsoft marketing staff. Most importantly, you'll learn to write good quality VB .NET code in well-designed applications. Appleman brings the same attention to technical detail and real-world attitude to the second edition as he has brought to all of his past books. It's sure to be a winner with readers.

The current trends in consumer electronics--including the use of GPS-equipped PDAs, phones, and vehicles, as well as the RFID-tag tracking and sensor networks--require the database support of a specific flavor of spatio-temporal databases. These we call Moving Objects Databases.
Why do you need this book? With current systems, most data management professionals are not able to smoothly integrate spatio-temporal data from moving objects, making data from, say, the path of a hurricane very difficult to model, design, and query. Whether your field is geology, national security, urban planning, mobile computing, or almost anything in between, this books concepts and techniques will help you solve the data management problems associated with this kind of data.
