Michael V. Mannino, University of Colorado - Denver
ISBN: 0072942207
Copyright year: 2007
The third edition of Mannino's Database Design, Application
Development, and Administration text provides the foundation for
the advanced study of individual database management systems, electronic
commerce applications, and enterprise computing. The fundamental database
technologies of each processing environment are presented, and each technology's
relationship to the advances of e-commerce and enterprise computing is
discussed.
In addition, Mannino teaches students how to apply relational databases in
solving basic and advanced database problems and cases. A wealth of worked-out
examples using Access and Oracle database applications and a rich number of
student projects that require manipulation of sample databases build student
skills via hands-on work. Students also learn how to design database
applications and support their designs with Entity Relationship Diagrams (ERDs).
Mannino includes ERDs in the text and includes a software design tool,
ER-Assistant, bundled with the text.
In addition to this pedagogy,
The text's Online Learning Center (OLC) includes the following highlights:
- Two new case studies (Instructor Resources -> Case Studies)

Description
Gerald Post’s Database Management Systems takes
an introductory approach to developing database applications; teaching
students to evaluate a business situation and then build and design a
database application. From systems design to distribution and
integration of the system --and everything in between--, students will
gain knowledge by getting a hands-on experience. The Third Edition has
been revised to offer a more flexible way to deliver database management
applications. Post continues to have a textbook that covers the core
theories and ideas of database management. Now, it offers two different
workbooks depending on the software that the instructor utilizes. One
workbook covers Oracle and the other workbook covers Access; thus
enabling the instructor to pick the workbook that will be employed in
the course and to go more in-depth with either tool.

Description
For courses in Database Management.
Focusing on standard ANSI SQL with a learn-by-doing approach, this text
organizes SQL subtopics into short chapters. Students first learn the features
of a SQL command, then its usage, based on management questions that typically
arise in the management decision-making process. The authors pose management
questions and then give examples of how SQL can be used to provide the data
needed. In light of the wide adoption of the Oracle relational DBMS product in
academic institutions and industry, additional examples of the supplemental
commands available in the Oracle implementation of SQL are provided. All of the
SQL concepts and commands covered (except in SQL *Plus and PL/SQL) are equally
applicable to database management system software that follows the ANSI SQL
standard—including DB2, SQL Server, and SYBASE.
