COURSE TITLE: Advanced Database Systems

COURSE DESCRIPTION: This course covers the core principles and techniques of data and information management to aid students in collecting, analyzing and maintaining data
effectively. It covers processing and optimization of declarative queries, transactions, crash recovery, data stream systems, Web data management, and
information integration.

COURSE LEARNING
OUTCOMES: After successful completion of this course, the student should be able to:

1. describe and explain advanced database concepts,

2. utilize language and syntax enhancements in the development of database application, and
3. design and develop a database application using MSSQL.
