These PnP interfaces are rooted in the principles of human-computer interaction (HCI) and cognitive psychology, aiming to overcome the limitations of traditional graph query languages in graph databases. Traditionally, constructing and maintaining VQIs in graph databases required domain experts and specialized programmers, making them inaccessible to many users. However, this book showcases how PnP interfaces challenge the conventional approach by adopting a data-driven approach. It empowers end users to effortlessly create and maintain VQIs for various data sources without the need for coding.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book guides readers through an intuitive PnP interface, which utilizes templates. The underlying graph repository serves as the socket, while the user-specified requirements represent the plug. This allows end users to modify the socket or the plug as required, automatically generating VQIs. The book emphasizes that this data-driven paradigm brings about several advantages, including enhanced support for visual subgraph query construction, significant reduction in the manual effort required to construct and maintain VQIs for different graph data sources, and the portability of the interface across diverse sources and querying applications.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo provide a comprehensive understanding of PnP interfaces, the book compares them to their manual counterparts and explores techniques for automatic construction and maintenance of these new interfaces. By synthesizing current research in this area, the book offers readers a snapshot of the state-of-the-art in plug-and-play visual subgraph query interface management. It serves as a valuable resource for researchers, practitioners, and anyone interested in exploring the potential of PnP interfaces in graph databases and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 478g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 246 x 173 x 17 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783031161612\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2023\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sourav S.
