| Content | CPU architectures, pipelining, parallelism, multi-scale CPUs, pipelining and query evaluation, CPU caches, cache aware database architecture, main memory databases (internals and practical use). |
|
| Objectives | Students understand a database system as a synthesis of CPU/computer architecture and actual database architecture. They can evaluate existing database architectures with regard to their suitability for execution on a given computer architecture. This module connects the worlds of CPUs (instruction level) and database systems (query processor) and thus promotes system understanding across many architectural levels. |
