Notes:
Welcome to the course Databases 1.
This course is based on parts of the book “Database System Concepts”, by Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan. We will be using the 4th edition of this book.
In this introductory lecture I will be explaining the topic of this course, the way in which the course activities are organized, and the work we expect you to do.
The course material consists of the book, some additional printed material and a website with up to date information and a discussion forum.
The website also contains sets of viewgraphs, which are mostly in English, but with Dutch translation where needed or useful. The viewgraphs have auditory comments, which are in English to serve our foreign students. The interactive course activities are all in Dutch.
