Course Description This course deals with query optimization, transaction management, recovery
and concurrency control, database authorization and security. Additional
topics including object oriented and object relational database systems,
distributed databases, and integration may also be covered. A major
component of the course is a database implementation project using current
database languages and systems.

Course Objective At the end of this course, students will be able to:
 Describe the main concepts of the OO model such as object identity,
type constructors, encapsulation inheritance, polymorphism, and
versioning
 Compare a set o\f query processing strategies and select the optimal
strategy. Know the basics of transaction management and concurrency
control
 Demonstrate database security
 Use different recovery methods when there is a database failure
 Design a distributed database system in homogenous and
heterogeneous environments

Roles of the Instructor He/she will come to the class regularly on time and deliver the lecture and/or
laboratory class in a well-organized manner. Besides, at the end of each class he/she
gives reading assignment for the next class. He/she will make sure that a proper
assessment is given. He/she is also responsible to give feedback for each assessment
The success of this course depends on the students‟ individual and collective
Roles of the students contribution to the class discussions. Students are expected to participate voluntarily,
or will be called upon, to contribute to set exercises and problems. Students are also
expected to read the assigned readings and prepare the cases before each class so that
they could contribute effectively to class discussions. Students must attempt
assignments by their own. Proficiency in this course comes from individual knowledge
and understanding. Copying the works of others is considered as serious offence and
leads to disciplinary actions
