    2 cl hrs, 2 lab hrs, 3 cr This course is a continuation of the course "Design of Microcomputer Databases" (CST 3504/CS 504). This course concentrates on the physical design of databases, as well as the general introduction to the design of distributed relational databases. Such problems as database management, query processing, transaction management, reliability and security are discussed. Important issues of physical design, including the distribution of the database, are discussed under different architectures of distributed information systems. Such aspects of distributed databases as fragmentation, allocation and replication of data are discussed in detail. The course covers the special problems that occur from the distribution of data semantic control, reliability and transaction management, as well as the techniques used to solve these problems. Prerequisite: CST 3504/CS 504

    2 cl hrs, 2 lab hrs, 3 cr This course introduces the concepts of Object-Oriented Design through the use of CASE tools. The course covers the transition from object modeling to the coding in object-oriented procedure languages and objectoriented database management systems. Topics will include replicated objects, distribution of services throughout the system, code generation, reverse engineering, procedural abstraction, data abstraction, encapsulation, inheritance legacy conversions. Concepts will be demonstrated with the use of CASE tools on business examples. Prerequisite: CST 3506/CS 506

    2 cl hrs, 2 lab hrs, 3 cr This course is designed for the student who has a firm foundation in supervision of a single local area network and needs to integrate several existing computers and network architectures into a Windows NT environment. The student will examine the several prominent network cabling standards, protocols and hardware devices used in most enterprise-wide networks. It will teach how the most popular network operating systems solve various network connectivity problems. And finally, it will describe the technologies for making enterprise networks reliable and manageable. The setting for the course will be a lab with multiple LANs, several NT servers, several NetWare servers and the remaining PC's acting as workstations. Prerequisite: CST 3507/CS 507

    2 cl hrs, 2 lab hrs, 3 cr This course covers the new approaches in client/server application development. The core of the course is the concept of business objects that serve as building blocks for distributed applications. Students will learn how to perform analyses, design and implement business objects in Visual Basic and how to utilize these objects for building multitier distributed applications. Prerequisite: CST 3508/CS 508
  • 3.00 Credits

    2 cl hrs, 2 lab hrs, 3 cr This course focuses on how to design and maintain interactive and dynamic Web applications using server-side scripting. Students will learn server-side scripting by using Active Server Pages (ASP). Students will learn the elements of the VBScript language and the ASP Object Model to program interactive Web applications. Processing of HTML forms on the web server as well as file management on the web server will be discussed in detail. An important component of this course is the construction of data-driven websites that interact with databases using ActiveX Data Objects (ADO). Other server-side technologies (PHP, Cold Fusion) will be introduced. Prerequisite: CST 3509/CS 509
  • 3.00 Credits

    2 cl hrs, 2 lab hrs, 3 cr This course is designed to provide a comprehensive overview of network security. It covers authentication methods along with common network attacks and how to safeguard against them. It also teaches important communication security aspects related to the use of remote access, the Web, directory and file transfer, and wireless data. The roles of firewalls, routers, switches and other network hardware in security are examined. Security considerations for transmission and storage media are discussed as well as network security topologies and Network Operating System vulnerabilities. In the lab, students will study how network attacks occur and how to defend against them. Prerequisites: MST 2405/MS 405 and CST 3510/CS 510
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course covers UNIX communications and networking and how to access the Internet services from the local system. Topics cover networking basics as applied to the UNIX operating systems, network file systems, modem and high-speed communications, UNIX communications programs, UUCP utilities, remote log-in programs, file transferring using FTP, the IP network addressing, the TCP/IP protocol stack and SNMP. In addition, students will be introduced to the Internet, electronic mail, telnet, gopher, UseNet, the World Wide Web and other on-line services. Prerequisite: CST 3603/CS 603

    2 cl hrs, 2 lab hrs, 3 cr This course is designed to introduce the student to the principles of data warehousing. Through this course, students are taught how to plan and design a data warehouse and integrate its use through an organizational network. Theoretical and practical models are covered and extensive use is made of case studies, as well as practical exercises to relate theory and practice. Prerequisite: CST 3604/CS 604
  • 3.00 Credits

    2 cl hrs, 2 lab hrs, 3 cr This course introduces the concepts of designing systems for client/server implementation. Building on the concepts of object-oriented analysis and design, the principles of designing an enterprise-wide distributed information system will be explained. Business examples will be demonstrated using CASE tools. Topics will include technology architecture, data architecture, application architecture, distributed databases, connectivity, middleware and interoperability. Prerequisite: CST 3606/CS 606
