Course description and aims

The data engineering is an active research area focuses on sophisticated processing of a large amount of various data in computer systems, such as processing advanced databases.
This course aims to let students learn advanced methodologies and mechanisms for manipulating a large amount of data efficiently through understanding various contemporary technologies of data engineering, including application examples, data structures, indexing, processing algorithms, and parallel processing methods for high functional and high speed processing of a large amount of data.

Student learning outcomes

By the end of this course students will be able to
1) Understand the basic concept of data engineering and its basics: Relational databases and transaction processing
2) Understand technologies for data warehouse as a typical application of data engineering
3) Understand data structure and algorithms of OLAP and data mining executed in the data warehouse
4) Understand implementation algorithms and costs of relational database operations for the data warehouse
5) Understand parallelization approaches for high speed relational database operations
6) Understand skew handling methods for parallel database operations
7) Understand distributed database processing including database in cloud
8) Understand trends of recent XML/RDF databases
