I would like to thank my wife for putting up with my long writing sessions
over late nights and weekends that I spent working on this book. Without
her love and support, this book would not have been possible.
My deepest gratitude to my parents for allowing me to realize my own
potential. I would also like to thank my mentors Dr. Prateek Bhatia and
Bikramjit Singh whose excellent teaching methods built my interest in the
eld of databases.
