DATABASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS

CSE3DMS

2018

Credit points: 15

Subject outline

This subject covers the important knowledge and concepts of database management systems. The techniques of various indexes including B+Trees, Bitmap, static and dynamic hashing indexes used for database organisations are studied. The algorithms for query processing and optimisation to improve performance of the database systems are detailed. Principles and theories of database management such as transaction management, serializability, recoverability, concurrency control algorithms and recovery techniques are covered. This subject is also including the advanced database programming SQL such as advanced procedures, functions, transactions, Oracle optimizer, execution plans for query optimization, hint, auto-trace and indexes etc. Physical database design issues and tuning techniques are extensively studied and discussed.

Graduate capabilities & intended learning outcomes

01. Explain the steps for developing database applications and Advance SQL programming under Oracle DB environment.

Activities:
Learning from lectures 1 & 2 and practice in labs weekly

02. Explain database management systems, file organisations and Index techniques

Activities:
Learning from lectures 3-5 for concepts and examples of Indexes of B+tree & hashing. Practising in labs by drawing the structures of various indexes such as static multilevel indexes, dynamic B+tree indexes, internal & external Hashing for Disk Files storage and indexes.

03. Improve database performance through database design tuning and the database queries tuning

Activities:
Learning the theory in lectures and practising on modifications of existing database design, indexes and queries to improve database performance.

04. Perform the analysis of optimisation on database queries

Activities:
Learning the theory in lectures and practising in Labs by calculating the costs for different SQL queries for selection, projection and join operations Practising the SQL queries using different algorithms and indexes techniques under Oracle database systems to compare the performance

05. Explain the principle of transaction management design for concurrency control and recovery algorithms

Activities:
Learning the theory in lectures and doing practice on problems in Labs Students are given various transaction schedules to identify the correctness by different techniques and algorithms

06. Develop effective high quality database queries using knowledge and skills learned in this unit

Activities:
Students will be assigned a large assignment for design, analysis and implementation database queries
