  3. TA Lectures • Tue – Wed – Sun cycle • Same TA during the cycle • If a TA lecture falls out on a holiday, students should plan to attend another lecture during the same cycle • Students are responsible for all the material for the final exam. That includes lectures, TA lectures, slides, and homework

  4. Assignments (1) • About10-12 assignments • Assignments are 25% of the final grade • All assignments must be handed in! • Assignments are to be done alone (not in pairs)! • Must include name, login, student number. Points will be taken off if login is omitted

  5. Assignments (2) • Assignment submission: • Theoretical assignments - box in Ross -2 • Programming assignments - electronically • Assignments are returned in Ross –2, grades available on the internet • Make sure that you have a grade when the exercise is returned!

  6. Appeals and Extensions • Appeals are submitted to box in Ross -2 • Appeal form available on the course site • Appeals should be submitted no later than 1 week after assignments are returned • Extensions are possible in special cases (i.e., miluim, childbirth, etc.). • Ask for the extension before the due date

  7. Course Books • Database Management Systems, by Raghu Ramakrishnan • Principles of Database and Knowledge-Base Systems, Volumes I and II, by Jeffery Ullman (essentially chapter 7 concerning Design Theory) • Oracle 8i: The Complete Reference, by Kevin Loney and George Koch

  8. Entity-Relationship Diagrams Database Course, Fall 2005

  9. Scenario • http://www.imdb.com wants to maintain a movie database • The design approach we now consider: • Conceptual Database Design: high level description of data to be stored (ER model) • Logical Database Design: translation of ER diagrams into a relational database schema (description of tables)

  10. Movie Database Requirements (1) • For actors and directors, we want to store their name, a unique identification number, address, and birthday • For actors, we also want to store a picture • For movies, we want to store the title, year of production, and type • We want to know who directed and who acted in each movie. Every movie has one director • We store the pay of each actor for each movie

  11. Movie Database Requirements (2) • An actor can receive an award for his part in a movie. We store information about who got which award for which movie, along with the name of the award and year. • We also store the name and telephone number of the organization that gave the award. Two different organizations can give an award with the same name. A single organization does not give more than one award with a particular name in the same year.

  12. Entities, Entity Sets • Entity (ישות): An object in the world that can be distinguished from other objects • Entity set (קבוצת ישויות): A set of similar entities  Entity sets are drawn as rectangles • Compare to objects and classes in OOD Q: What are some of the entity sets in our movie database?

  13. Attributes • Attributes (תכונות): Used to describe entities • All entities in the set have the same attributes • Attributes are drawn using ovals • A minimal set of attributes that uniquely identify an entity is called a key • The names of the attributes which make up the key are underlined

  14. Example birthday id Actor name address

  15. birthday id Actor name address Another Option for a Key?

  16. Relationships, Relationship Sets • Relationship (קשר): Association among two or more entities • Relationships may have attributes • Relationship Set (קבוצת קשרים): Set of similar relationships • Relationship sets are drawn using diamonds Q: Could you name some of the relationship sets in the movie database?

  17. salary Example title birthday id Movie Actor year Acted In name type address Where does the salary attribute belong?

  18. Recursive Relationships • An entity set can participate more than once in a relationship • In this case, we add a description of the role to the ER-diagram phone number manager id Employee Manages worker name address

  19. n-ary Relationship • An n-ary relationship set R involves exactly n entity sets: E1, …, En • Each relationship in R involves exactly n entities: e1ÎE1, …, enÎ En • Formally, R E1x …x En Director id name id Actor Movie Produced title name

  20. id director actor produced Person Movie title name Another Option: Remember Recursive Relationships

  21. Binary vs. Ternary Relationship שם מוסד מוסד לימד קורס מרצה שם קורס מספר קטלוגי מס זהות שם מרצה שם מוסד לימד ב ניתן ב מוסד לימד את קורס מרצה שם קורס מספר קטלוגי מס זהות שם מרצה

  22. Role title role Important Note • The entities in a relationship set identify the relationship • Suppose we wanted to store the role of an actor in a movie • How would we store information about a person who acted in one movie in several roles? id Actor Movie Acted In title name

  23. Key Constraints (אילוצי מפתח) • Key constraints specify whether an entity can participate in one, or more than one, relationships in a relationship set • When there is no key constraint, an entity can participate any number of times • When there is a key constraint, the entity can participate at most one time  Key constraints are drawn using an arrow from the entity set to the relationship set

  24. Many-to-Many • A movie is directed by any number of directors • A director can direct any number of movies id Director Movie Directed title name Director Directed Movie

  25. One-to-Many • A movie is directed by at most one director • A director can direct any number of movies id Director Movie Directed title name Director Directed Movie

  26. One-to-One • A movie is directed by at most one director • A director can direct at most one movie id Director Movie Directed title name Director Directed Movie

  27. Another Example Where would you put the arrow? age father id Person FatherOf child name

  28. Another Example age father id Person FatherOf child name

  29. Key Constraints in Ternary Relationships Actor id name id Director Movie produced title name What does this mean? A movie has at most one actor and one director

  30. Participation Constraints אילוצי השתתפות)) • When there is no participation constraint, it is possible that an entity will not participate in a relationship set • When there is a participation constraint, the entity must participate at least once  Participation constraints are drawn using a thick line from the entity set to the relationship set

  31. Example (1) • A movie has at least one director • A director can direct any number of movies id Director Movie Directed title name Do you think that there should be a participation constraint from Director to Directed? Director Directed Movie

  32. Example (2) • We can combine key and participation constraints. • What does this diagram mean? id Director Movie Directed title name A movie has exactly one director. A director directs at least one movie.

  33. organization Award name year Weak Entity Sets (1) What is the problem here?

  34. Weak Entity Sets (2) phone number name Organization Gives Award name year Does this solve the problem?

  35. Weak Entity Sets (3) • Weak entity sets are entity sets that are not uniquely identified by their attributes • A weak entity set has an "identifying relationship“ (תלות זיהוי) with an entity set that is the "identifying owner“ (הבעלים המזהה) of the weak entity set

  36. Weak Entity Sets (4) A weak entity set must: • participate fully in the identifying relationship ( a thick line) • participate in a one to many relationship with the identifying owner (an arrow)  Weak entity sets have a thick rectangle, their keys are underlined with a broken line, and the identifying relationship has a thick diamond

  37. Weak Entity Sets (5) phone number name Organization Gives Award name year

  38. Example author id title Book isbn Person Copy Of Borrowed Copy copy number condition

  39. What if We Store Information About Many Libraries? Owned By name Library author Book title id isbn Person Copy Of Borrowed Copy copy number condition

  40. ISA Hierarchies ISA Relationships: Define a hierarchy between entity sets • ISA is similar to inheritance  ISA relationships are drawn as a triangle with the word ISA inside it. The "super entity-set" is above the triangle and the "sub entity-sets" are below

  41. Example • What are the keys of: • Movie Person • Actor • Director address id birthday Movie Person name ISA picture Director Actor

  42. Overlap Constraints • Overlap constraints: Determine whether two sub-entity sets can contain the same entity • Example: Can an Actor be a Director?  Write "Actor OVERLAPS Director". If not written, assume no overlap

  43. Covering Constraints • Covering constraints: Determine whether every entity in the super-entity set is also in at least one of the sub-entity sets • Example: Is every movie person either an Actor or a Director?  Write "Actor AND Director COVER Movie Person". If not written, assume no covering

  44. Example parent woman man child ParentOf Married Person name id Is this good? A man can be married to a man and a woman to a woman!

  45. Example parent name ParentOf child Person id Man AND Woman COVER Person ISA Married Man Woman

  46. Aggregation • Aggregation: Allows us to indicate that a relationship set participates in a relationship set

  47. Is this good? (1) picture Actor salary Acted In Award year Movie title type • Each movie has received at least one award • Each actor has received at least one award

  48. Is this good? (2) picture Actor salary Acted In Won Award year Movie title type The same award can be granted to an actor A and to a movie F although the actor A has not acted in the movie F.

  49. Solution: Use Aggregation picture Actor Won salary Acted In Award year Movie title type

  50. address id birthday Movie Person name phone number name ISA Organization Gives picture Director Actor Won salary Acted In Directed Award year name Movie year title type
