A Comprehensive Book on Object Oriented Oracle

The book contains comprehensive descriptions and examples on the use of Object-Oriented concepts in Oracle Object-Relational database system.
Unlike many existing books in the area which mainly focus on Object-Relational database features independently from the design concepts, this book covers step-by-step mapping of each Object-Oriented design concept into implementation in Oracle Object-Relational database system. This book also contains a lot of sample codes, exercises, and case studies which demonstrate the practical implementation of the mapping process.
Prominent vendors in Relational database management systems such as Oracle have now introduced various features that are based on the Object-Oriented concepts. Because these features are developed on Relational DB, they are now called the new generation of Object-Relational database systems. However, there have been no real effort in ensuring database developers to understand when and where to use these new features, and so most of these useful features have remained unused in the real world. This book is aimed to provide more insight into Object-Oriented Oracle, and especially demonstrating cases where the new OO features in Oracle can be utilized.
Everyone who has any interest in Oracle or databases in general, needs to keep up with the latest development in the area. The underlying model of database systems has changed overtime, from hierarchical, network, and relational models, and now the latest Object-Oriented model. This book is useful for both database developers as well as database teaching instructors who want to gain more understanding about the design and implementation of the latest Object-Oriented model in Oracle database system.
