7. Module Aim Module aims to build upon student's general understanding of database systems acquired in the prerequisite module. Module enables students to gain in-depth understanding of various issues pertinent to the development and management of a modern database system. Module also introduces current database research topics thereby raising students’ clear awareness and understanding of latest development and future trend in database subject area.

8. Module Aim A substantial practical element is integrated into the module to enable students to design relatively complex database systems using CASE tools (using Oracle designer as an example toolset).

9. Learning Outcomes Demonstrate a clear understanding of the various key issues which affect database systems and their performance. Demonstrate an enhanced awareness of some current developments in the database area. Design and develop a relatively complex database for a given business scenario, with a professional approach to the documentation of the system.

10. Assessment To enable the students to demonstrate their achievement on the stated learning outcomes. Specifically: Students' knowledge and understanding of the theoretical aspects of database management systems together with an enhanced awareness of current development in subject area are assessed by an unseen examination. Students’ practical proficiency and problem-solving skills on design of database systems are assessed by an individual coursework.

11. Assessment To enable the students to demonstrate their achievement on the stated learning outcomes. Specifically: Coursework Design and Implementation-40% Examination 2 hour unseen exam-60% To achieve an overall pass of module, students are required to gain an aggregated pass of examination and coursework.

12. What is expected from you? Each week's lecture dealing with different topics, so attendance is important. Attend all Lectures and Tutorial / Seminar sessions / Computer labs Come in tutorial classes well prepared for class works. Clear your doubts during tutorials.

13. What is expected from you? Workshop to learn/use Oracle, gaining a potentially useful skill/knowledge. Individual practical work using case study and hands on exercise Download Module Specification, Lecture slides & other materials from FSERVER and LMU server Subjects/topics are wide-ranging, so additional wide reading and independent learning and Self Study is important.

14. Topics Module Introduction; Database architecture Query Optimisation Database Recovery Database concurrency Database Security Distributed Databases and Data Mining Relational Integrity, Relational Algebra vs SQL Consolidation The weekly sequence of topics are subject to change.

15. Overview Pre-requisite CC2006NI – Data Modelling and Database Systems What we have learned Conceptual design:ER modeling Logical design:relational model, normalisation Physical design:create/access database using SQL (DDL/DML)

16. Overview What we will learn: CC2006 CC3005 implementation design/build maintenance database DBMS performance etc e.g. security recovery software that handles concurrency all access to the database Software to learn/use Oracle 11g Oracle Designer, and SQL Plus
