The subject has become well supported by a wealth of research, exceptional industrial experience and numerous books covering a wide range of topics. This book presents the concepts for design and implementation of modern databases. An analytical approach is followed so that the concepts learned can be applied not only to the wide variety of databases that exist today but can also be used to build systems for the future. This book provides emphasis on design and the formalisation databases. The conceptual, mathematical and pretend to present the relational theory in its entirety.

The focus is on a coherent, systematic coverage of database design, applications and trends. The primary objective of this book is to present a reasonably comprehensive explanation of the process of the development of databases application systems within the framework of the set processing paradigm.
