Courses offered in WS 09/10
Lecture: Implementation of Databases
Lecture: Web Science II
Seminar: Data Streams and Dataspaces
Practical course (advanced level): Hightech Entrepreneurship and New Media
The lecture introduces basic technologies of the realization of database systems. Beside the coarse architecture (e.g. layer architecture) detailed procedures for the solution of single tasks (especially query analysis and transaction management) will be discussed. The concepts of implementation will be applied to classical (relational model, network model) as well as to more recent data models (distributed, object-oriented, deductive). In addition to necessary theoretical fundamentals, practical concepts will be introduced that allow database administrators the efficient tuning of databases.
With the emerging development and impacts of World Wide Web, Web Science having information and social dimensions has been becoming a new study field in Computer Science.
A list of current courses offered by our Chair can be also found in the CAMPUS-System of the RWTH Aachen.
