"Principles of Database Systems with Internet and Java Applications" provides a concise and modern presentation of database topics that is suitable for use in an introductory undergraduate database course, as well as for self-study. It enlists Java and the Internet to add an applications perspective to the core DBMS theory and will be particularly appealing to instructors who want to make their database courses relevant to Internet activities.
Parts One and Two include a thorough treatment of core database systems theory. The material is augmented with examples that rely on readily available database tools. Microsoft Access" examples illustrate the role of interactive tools in developing information systems, and a chapter devoted to SQL, with extensive examples, illustrates ways that applications manipulate relational databases.
Parts Three and Four motivate the theoretical concepts by demonstrating their relationship to object-oriented programming. A running case study, "BigHit Video, Inc.," takes the theory just covered and builds a Web-based DBMS application to show the reader how theory is combined with commercial products to manage information for the Internet. The Java Programming Language provides the basis for discussing how information is represented using an object-oriented language; an introduction to Java is included as an appendix.
Parts Five and Six move on to advanced topics that can be covered in a longer or more advanced database course. Using "Principles of Database Systems with Internet and Java Applications", readers learn how the World Wide Web and Java can work together to publish and collect information in the widest possible context in a database- and platform-independent manner. This book covers the basic material of information management, database systems, Java programming, and interaction with databases on the Web.
