Physical Descriptionxi, 291p. figures, tables
Summary, Etc.The ability of storing, managing, and giving access to the huge quantity of data collected by astronomical observatories is one of the major challenges of modern astronomy. At the same time, the growing complexity of data systems implies a change of concepts: the scientist has to manipulate information as well as data. Recent developments of the "WorldWideWeb" bring interesting answers to these problems. The book presents a wide selection of databases, archives, data centers, and information systems. Clear and up-to-date descriptions are included, together with their scientific context and motivations. This volume provides an essential tool for astronomers, librarians, data specialists and computer engineers
