Gradiance Automated Homeworks

Pearson is no longer reselling Gradiance service, so we have decided to offer it free of charge to those who want it. If you are an instructor who wants to use the system, start by creating an account for yourself at www.gradiance.com/services, NOT at the Pearson site. Note: passwords are >= 10 letters+digits, with at least one of each. Also, we cannot make an account be an instructor account for a book if the same account has registered as a student for a course using the same materials. Please email your chosen login, with the book whose materials you want, to support@gradiance.com We'll enable you to create a class using those materials. There are manuals at www.gradiance.com/info.html that should enable you to use the system without problems, but feel free to email support aT gradiance dOT com if you encounter difficulties. If you are a student who has purchased an access card or on-line privilege from Pearson, Prentice-Hall or Addison-Wesley, you should understand that this money was not collected or received by Gradiance. On the other hand, Gradiance will temporarily make available free access to a number of omnibus classes equivalent to the ones that Pearson was offering. Go to www.gradiance.com/services and create an account for yourself. Do not try to use your Pearson account. Here are the omnibus courses you can join and their class tokens: Hopcroft-Motwani-Ullman Automata: 4A379A91 Garcia-Ullman-Widom or Ulllman-Widom Databases: E68759F1 Aho-Lam-Sethi-Ullman Compilers: 467454C2 ElMasri-Navathe Databases: 6F977376 Tenenbaum OS: 328E417C Stallings OS: 72377233 Liang Java: D978043E Rajaraman-Ullman Data Mining: 1EDD8A1D Tan-Steinbach-Kumar Data Mining: 3426AAF1 Carrano Data Structures: D89F06AD Aho-Ullman Foundations of CS: 8CD5ED01 If your instructor was planning to use Gradiance through Pearson, please tell them to set up their own class following the instructions above, so you can enter that class rather than an omnibus class.

Introduction to Automata and Language Theory

The venerable Hopcroft-Ullman book from 1979 was revised in 2001 with the help of Rajeev Motwani. The Third Edition was published in June, 2006. The book has been made both simpler and more relevant to the programming challenges of today, such as Web search and ecommerce. For the book's Web page, click here: .

Database Systems: The Complete Book

There is a new (second) edition, published in June, 2008. For information and backup material, click here:

A First Course in Database Systems

The third edition was published in 2007. This book covers database design and implementation. It is the first half of Database Systems: The Complete Book, which you should choose instead if your interests go beyond database applications and include implementation of a DBMS.
