Module Aim: Module aims to build upon students’ general

understanding of database systems acquired in the prerequisite module.

Module enable students to gain in-depth understanding of various issues pertinent to the development and management of a modern database system.

Module also introduces current database research topics thereby raising students’ clear awareness and understanding of latest development and future trend in database subject area.

Module Aim (cont.…): A substantial practical element is integrated into

the module to enable students to design relatively complex database systems using CASE tools (using Oracle designer as an example toolset).

Learning Outcome: Demonstrate a clear understanding of the various

key issues which affect database systems and their performance.

Demonstrate an enhanced awareness of some current developments in the database area.

Design and develop a relatively complex database for a given business scenario, with a professional approach to the documentation of the system.

Assessment: To enable the students to demonstrate their

achievement on the stated learning outcomes. Specifically: Students' knowledge and understanding of the theoretical

aspects of database management systems together with an enhanced awareness of current development in subject area are assessed by an unseen examination.

Students’ practical proficiency and problem-solving skills on design of database systems are assessed by an individual coursework.

Assessment: To enable the students to demonstrate their

achievement on the stated learning outcomes. Specifically:

Coursework: Design and Implementation - 40%

Examination: 2 hour unseen exam - 60%

* To achieve an overall pass of module, students are required to gain * To achieve an overall pass of module, students are required to gain an aggregated pass of examination and coursework.an aggregated pass of examination and coursework.

What is expected from you? Each week's lecture dealing with different topics,

so attendance is important. Attend all Lectures and Tutorial / Seminar

sessions / Computer labs Come in tutorial classes well prepared for class

works. Clear your doubts during tutorials.

What is expected from you? Workshop to learn/use Oracle, gaining a

potentially useful skill/knowledge. Individual practical work using case study and

hands on exercise Download Module Specification, Lecture slides &

other materials from FSERVER and LMU Server Subjects/topics are wide-ranging, so additional

wide reading and independent learning & Self StudySelf Study is important & highly recommended.
