    I took the same course @geedy is speaking of (with him, in fact) and there are two good comparable resources I'm aware of:

    (1) Ramon's (excellent!) lecture notes themselves are currently (but not always) available on his website: https://people.ok.ubc.ca/rlawrenc/teaching/404/notes/index.h...

    (2) Garcia-Molina, Ullman and Widom's book and courses taught on their work: http://www.amazon.ca/Database-System-Implementation-Hector-G... http://infolab.stanford.edu/~ullman/dbsi.html
