Description and Table of Contents
Description
This book aims to explain the theory of relational databases in a simple and easy-to-understand way. It introduces the elements of stable data structures paving the way for an understanding of how such data structures can be designed. It also provides a comprehensive coverage of relational languages. Finally, it introduces a methodology based on the results of Windsor and Stanway's work in England, which solves the pressing problem of physical database design. It also presents, supported by a detailed case study, a management concept for the system development process step-by-step through the phases of function analysis, information analysis and physical database design. This is achieved by a set of coordinated working instructions and documentation. All design decisions are based on objective and quantifiable criteria to ensure an efficient and flexible database solution for SQL-DS, DB2, ORACLE and ADABAS databases.
