CSE 532 -- Project Page

Please note: project assignments are available only through the Blackboard system.

For this project we will be using the DB2 DBMS. In principle you can download a no-cost personal version of DB2 and install it on your own machine. But it is probably easier to leave the headache to our system administrators and use the version installed on a Departmental server. See this information on how to use the database server installed in the Department. You can still use your own machine to build the actual application and connect to the database remotely.

Documentation:

Online documentation for DB2 and related. A must for Projects 2 and 3.

DB2 database accounts:

• Username:    your NetID
• Password:    the one you use to connect to the Departmental mail server.
• If you are working with a partner, use the shared database account that you selected on the wiki.

Source code repository:

For Projects 2 and 3, you are required to maintain your code and documents in a Departmental Subversion repository (SVN) and make sure that the project compiles in Eclipse. Please see the page How to Work with SVN for more details.

Technical problems:

With any problems concerning the database server and the labs write to rt@cs.sunysb.edu. Please do not email any of these concerns to the instructor or the TA, since we cannot fix these problems.
