- Full title :Database systems : concepts, management, and applications / Alden C. Lorents, James N. Morgan.
Summary
This database book has been written to serve the introductory database course in most CIS major programs, and to support any program where there is an emphasis on information systems design beyond the introductory course in CIS. Normally it is helpful for students to have a course in programming before taking a CIS major course in database system. Students with some programming experience have more background in data structures bytes, data types, field names, records and files. Programming also helps students understand host language constructs that are used in conjunction with IMS, IDMS and embedded SQL. However an introductory database course that concentrates on relational implementations without host language implementations can be completed by students who have had a good introductory CIS course that include projects using a PC database such as Access or Paradox ... The primary emphasis of the book is on relational databases ... Another objective of this book is to keep students involved in various applied activities that continue to reinforce the concepts covered in the conceptual chapters.-Pref.
