This course is organized in two sections addressing different issues in the design of software systems. The first section provides advanced databases management systems topics: data storage, data indexing and query planning, transaction management. Moreover, the basic concepts of information systems architectures, information management technologies (data warehouse, data handling in embedded and mobile systems, web information systems) are discussed. The second part addresses software system development issues: all phases of the software life cycle are crossed. The development process management and planning is illustrated and accompanied by related supporting tools; also the international quality standards for these phases are presented and the maturity models.
