Rules for evaluation and completion of the course
Two semestral works are required for granting the credit. The work will be evaluated 0-10 points, to get the credit is necessary evaluation not less than 12 points from both projects. The work must be submitted in the credit week.Examination Requirements: Knowledge of the subject matter and its practical application.Form of examination - written and oral. In the written part the students solve the given examples, in the oral part the knowledge of the theory is verified.
Control of results of independent work on specified tasks. In case of excused absence from seminars, the teacher can set an additional condition, if appropriate, usually elaboration of a partial written task.
Aims
The main objective of the course is to provide students with the necessary knowledge and especially practical skills necessary for the analysis of corporate processes with respect to data and function models as a basic instrument for the IS creation. It is also necessary to understand fundamentals of formation of relation data models, relation algebra, data normalization and integrity limits definition. To identify and learn how to use basic relation models entry notations. It is necessary to master fundamental methods of functional models identification and to know how to analyze and realize corporate processes by means of these methods. To integrate data and functional model into a conceptual model.Students will be able to analyse the entrepreneurial processes. They will be able to design optimal relation data models and to define correctly integrity limitations of the model with respect to the analyzed processes. They will be able to design functional models of these processes, and to process documentation of analysed processes according to different conventions.
