Cs 206-01: Computer Software Productivity Tools, John P. Herzog Jan 2011

Cs 206-01: Computer Software Productivity Tools, John P. Herzog

Computer Science & Engineering Syllabi

Focus on learning MS Office software applications including advanced topics in spreadsheets, database and presentation graphics, using a case study approach where critical thinking and problem solving skills are required. Computer concepts are integrated throughout the course to provide an understanding of advanced computing, the latest technological advances and how they are used in industry. Ethics and issues encountered in business are discussed to challenge students on societal impact of technology.


Cs 790-01: Knowledge Representation For The Semantic Web, Pascal Hitzler Jan 2011

Cs 790-01: Knowledge Representation For The Semantic Web, Pascal Hitzler

Computer Science & Engineering Syllabi

Semantic Web is a maturing field of technology that continues to be the emphasis of much focused research and industrial investigation. The central idea behind Semantic Web is to enhance data on the World Wide Web by so-called metadata, which describes the meaning (semantics) of the data and thus makes it available for processing in intelligent systems. In this course we cover in depth the standardized knowledge representation languages for expressing metadata, called ontology languages. We will in particular cover the Resource Description Framework RDF and the Web Ontology Language OWL, both of which are recommended standards by the World …


Cs 400/600-02: Data Structures And Algorithms, Sarah Gothard Jan 2011

Cs 400/600-02: Data Structures And Algorithms, Sarah Gothard

Computer Science & Engineering Syllabi

Study of the implementation of data structures and control structures in professional computer programs. Introduction to the fundamentals of complexity and analysis. Study of common standard problems and solutions (e.g., transitive closure and critical path). Emphasis on high-level language software design.


Cs 405/605-01: Introduction To Database Management Systems, Guozhu Dong Jan 2011

Cs 405/605-01: Introduction To Database Management Systems, Guozhu Dong

Computer Science & Engineering Syllabi

Logical and physical aspects of database management systems are surveyed. Data models including entity-relationship (ER) and relational models are presented. Physical implementation (data organization and indexing) methods are discussed. Query languages including SOL, relational algebra, relational calculus, and QBE are studied. Students will gain experience in creating and manipulating a database, and gain knowledge on professional and ethical responsibility and on the importance of privacy/security of data.
