  • CSCI 6320: Graphical User Interfaces

    3.00 Credits
    Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

    Building graphical user interfaces, or GUIs, are the norm in modern computing. Once a user interface concept is designed and tested, it must be implemented by programming teams on specific hardware platforms. How the interface is specified is a real challenge. Likewise, a number of standards and tools exist that establish the "look and feel" of the interface. Introduces the history of GUIs; shows how they can be specified; presents the concept of event-driven programming upon which they are based, and discusses their current status, and compares today's standards such as Macintosh, Motif, and MS Windows. It also predicts the future based on current computer capabilities and interface trendsPrerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: user interface design experience. Credit Hours: 3

  • CSCI 6460: Advanced Database Management Topics

    3.00 Credits
    Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

    This course is a continuation of CSCI-4380 and presents a more theoretical approach to logical and physical database design. It covers such topics as algorithms for logical database design, primary and secondary indexing techniques, query processing and query optimization, and database security. Problems of interfacing a database system with an operating system and some of the issues in implementing distributed database systems are also discussed. Much of the material comes from recent research papers. A term paper may be required. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: CSCI 4380. When Offered: Offered on availability of instructor.
