CIS501 Information System Design

Course Abstract

Fundamentals of information structures utilizing sequential, indexed sequential, and direct access files. Design and implementation of office information systems, real-time information systems, distributed systems, and knowledge-based systems.

Course Objectives

The major objective of this course is to present concepts about file processing. In doing so we will cover two broad areas. The first is the application of data structure techniques to secondary storages. The second is the evaluation of alternate solutions to the problem of mapping users views of data onto physical storages. We will discuss at length a variety of techniques used to store and retrieve information maintained in secondary storages.
