   * During Lecture 3 ({{:teaching:infoh417:slides-lect3-part1.pdf|slides part I}},  {{:teaching:infoh417:slides-lect3-part2.pdf|slides part II}}) we study sparse and dense index structures, and BTrees. The details are found in chapter 14, sections 14.1 and 14.2 in the book.
+==== Lecture 4: More Index Structures  ====
+  * During Lecture 4 ({{:teaching:infoh417:slides-lect4-part1.pdf|slides part I}}, {{:teaching:infoh417:slides-lect4-part2.pdf|slides part II}}, {{:teaching:infoh417:slides-ch13-indexstruc.odp|slides part II in OpenOffice Impress format}}) we have studied index structures based on hashing, and discussed the typical architecture of a DBMS. The details are found in section 14.3 and 15.7 in the book.
+==== Project Assignment: External Memory Algorithms ====
+  * In this assignment you are asked to implement an external-memory merge-sort algorithm, and examine its performance under different parameters. Be sure to visit the [[teaching:infoh417:project|project's page]] for full details and modalities.
+==== Reading Assignment 2: Multidimensional Index Structures ====
+  * There is no class on friday 28 October. Instead you are asked to read sections 14.4-14.6, pages 661-688 (in the international edition) or pages 649-676 (in the new international edition) of the book.  This concerns we will study various index structures that deal gracefully with multidimensional search keys ({{:teaching:infoh417:slides-lect5.pdf|slides}}).
