The Introduction to Database Systems course is one of the professional and fundamental courses for Computer Science and Technology. It aims to introduce the theories and methods for managing data via database technologies. In this course, students are required to learn the basic knowledge and principles of database systems, as well as to grasp database programming techniques. The main points of the course include data model, database architecture, the relational model, SQL, database design, and database programming. Some advanced topics will also be discussed in the course, such as database security, transaction processing, recovery, and concurrency control.
Computer Science
计算机科学（computer science，缩写CS）是系统性研究信息与计算的理论基础以及它们在计算机系统中如何实现与应用的实用技术的学科。它通常被形容为对那些创造、描述以及转换信息的算法处理的系统研究。计算机科学包含很多分支领域：有些强调特定结果的计算，比如计算机图形学；有些是探讨计算问题的性质，比如计算复杂性理论；还有一些领域专注于怎样实现计算，比如编程语言理论。
