Star schema is a mature modeling approach widely adopted by relational data warehouses. It requires modelers to classify their model tables as either dimension or fact.Dimension tablesDimension tables describe business entities—the things you model. Entities can include products, people, places, and ...
It's also possible to add manually controlled influences to the density field. So, if your game level needs a flat spot for a ship to land, as inFigure 1-16, you could pass data to describe it to the pixel shader in a constant buffer. The shader code might then look so...
Dimension tables contain columns that describe the fact records in the fact table. Some of these columns provide descriptive information. Other columns specify how the data in the fact table is summarized to provide useful information. Dimension tables contain hierarchies that help to summarize data....

I describe two activity sets where students explore focal concepts by shifting their balance on rockable balance boards: “the Balance Number Line,” using analog materials to foster understandings of the number line and negative numbers, and “Balance Graphing,” using sensors and a digital ...
Ah, but you have a dynamic computer display to work with—and suddenly time becomes another dimension of design! Just as importantly, computers permit user interaction with the layout to an extent that most printed things can't. There are many, many ways you can take advantage of the ...
Government intervention surfaced as a key point in the earlier description of the political dimension of the PEST methodology. This is a significant issue for higher education where a declining role for the state in relation to funding has been evident for some time. In many countries, notably ...
Using these data, not only the stability of the CES-D 8 can be examined more deeply, but also a latent growth model (LGM) can be established [77].The LGM can describe the developmental trajectories of the depressive symptoms over time, identify the intra-individual and inter-individual ...
