 INTRODUCTION
The course Database Management Systems, taught in SCIT (Department of Compute
Science & Information Technology), intends to teach the basic concepts as well as advanced
techniques in the management of databases of an organization.

The creation and manipulation of database objects requires programming in Structured Query
Language (SQL). SQL is a nonprocedural language with capabilities of creating and
manipulating data in tables and views. SQL is referred to as a query language because it has wide
range of facilities to retrieve data from a database. SQL may also be used to implement security
controls in a database system by assigning privileges to database users over database objects.
.

This workbook comprehensively covers programming in SQL as well as PL/SQL. This fourth
edition covers more features of SQL programming including joining operations and compound
queries. The examples and command variations has been increased. A new lab session covering
the generation of readable output using SQL*Plus tool of Oracle has been added. More exercises
have been included to give students the chance to improve their skills in SQL programming.

Twelve lab sessions cover SQL programming focusing on relational database concepts, retrieval
operations, Data Manipulation Language, Data Definition Language & Data Control Language.
