This course is a basic introduction to database technologies. The main topics are the conceptual modeling, the relational data model and the SQL language for data definition, manipulation and querying. |
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit |
---|
The primary goal is to introduce the basic database concepts such as the relational model and the SQL language. The students who finish this course will be able to specify the conceptual model and the relational scheme of an information system, and they will have a general knowledge of the basic SQL commands according to the SQL92 standard. |
