  2. 91.574 - Grading • Midterm Exam 25 % • Final Exam 25 % • Project 25 % • Journal, presentations, participation, etc. 25 % John Sieg, UMass Lowell

  3. Possible Topics • implementation techniques for relational database systems • rule-based query optimization • deductive database systems • object-oriented database systems • query evaluation techniques John Sieg, UMass Lowell

  4. Possible Topics, cont. • on-line analytic processing systems and multidimensional databases • distributed systems • parallelism • programmatic interfaces to database systems, e.g., Microsoft’s OBDC and Database Classes John Sieg, UMass Lowell

  5. Project • Extend the QBE interface with • a scanner built using flex and a parser built using bison • a query optimizer built using RBO • If you are interested in doing database research, you may choose a different project. Please discuss alternatives with me early in the semester. John Sieg, UMass Lowell
