About Book:

    Database management has evolved from a specialized   computer application to a central component of a modern computing environment, and, as result, knowledge about database systems has become an essential part of an education in computer science. In this text, We present the fundamental concepts of database management. These concepts include aspects of database design’ database languages, and database- system implementation

    This text is intended for a first course in databases at the junior or senior undergraduate or first-year graduate, levels. In addition to basic material for a first course, the text contains advanced material for a first course; the text contains advanced material that can be used for course supplements, or as introductory material for an advanced course.

      We assume only a familiarity with basic data structures, computer organization, and a high- level programming language such as Java, C, or Pascal. We present concepts as intuitive descriptions, many of which are based on our running example of university. Important theoretical results are covered, but formal proofs are omitted. In place of proofs, figures and examples are used to suggest why a result is true. Formal descriptions and proofs of theoretical results may be found in research papers and advanced texts that are referenced in the bibliographical notes.
