whitepaper Database Upgrade Using Transportable Tablespaces: Oracle Database 11g Release 12009-02-01 Oracle
  Efficient and reliable methods of performing database maintenance - such as upgrading a database - have existed for many Oracle software versions. However, as maintenance windows continue to shrink and database sizes continue to grow, the importance placed on the time required to upgrade a database to a new version has grown considerably. The Transportable TableSpaces (TTS) feature, introduced in Oracle8i, was originally released as a method to move a subset of one database into another, such as plugging parts of an OLTP database into a data warehouse. However, TTS may reduce database upgrade time by moving all user tablespaces from a database running an earlier software release to an empty target database running a current software release.

whitepaper Moving an MS Access Database Application to the Web With Alpha Five Version 92009-01-19 Alpha Software
  This paper explains the need to seriously consider moving the MS Application to the Web. It turns out that the Web provides a number of very compelling reasons for doing this such as: once the application has been moved to the Web, any authorized user can log onto the application from anywhere in the world. Also, different permissions and usage privileges can be assigned based on the logon. In addition, while "First" generation Web applications were often a bit slow, the AJAX technology embedded into Alpha Five Version 9 allows Web applications built in Alpha Five to be very fast, and offer a smooth "Desktop like" experience to the users. The paper explains how to move a Microsoft Access desktop application to the Web with Alpha Five.
