Database Design

This bibliography provides ready access to the literature on the design of databases. Database design is one of the most important development areas of modern information technology; the literature is very diversified and often confusing. This classified and annotated bibliography brings order to this chaos, enabling the reader to identify the main sources and locate particular references quickly and conveniently. More than 200 references are classified according to the particular area of database design they address. The annotations describe the main concerns of each reference, indicating something of their scope and use. In addition to the references themselves, which are alphabetically-ordered by author's name, there is a list of subjects covered, together with a detailed directory of all references dealing with each subject, and an index of authors cited.
