Читать книгу Modern Big Data Architectures - Dominik Ryzko - Страница 7

As the work on this book from the initial idea to its completion stretches over a period of a few years, it is not possible to mention all the people with whom I have discussed the ideas and the book itself during this period. However, a few of them have had significantly more influence on my thoughts and the final shape of the work.

Most of all I want to thank my family for supporting me and accepting the effort and time needed for such endeavor. I want to thank my supervisors and directors at the Institute of Computer Science, Warsaw University of Technology, Professors Marzena Kryszkiewicz, Henryk Rybiński, Mieczysław Muraszkiewicz, and Jarosław Arabas for encouraging me to pick up this project and coming up with valuable advice. Special thanks go to my friend and colleague Bartłomiej Trwardowski with whom I have spent numerous hours exchanging thoughts and ideas on various scientific topics and who was kind enough to provide feedback on an early draft. Last by not least I thank my past and future students, who are among the main recipients of this work. Your open and curious minds were a big motivator to make this book insightful, covering the most important ideas but also focusing on practical topics. I hope you will find it this way.
