  1. And Franchise Colleges HSQ - DATABASES & SQL 08 - ERD Modelling • By MANSHA NAWAZ ERD Modelling

  2. Entity Relationship Modelling Introduction • In this lecture we will try out a practical example of Entity-Relationship data modelling. • Data Modelling is a very creative process - logic, intuition and imagination are all needed. • At various stages you will need to attempt problems yourself so you will need a pen and paper. • E-R data modelling is the subject of more than half the examination or ica • Modelling from datastore and a case study scenario in this lecture. ERD Modelling

  3. ERD Examples Example 3 ERD from a CASE STUDY FILM CLUB Example 2 ERD from DATASTORE FLIGHTS Example 1 ERD from DATASTORE PO – PURCHASE ORDERS ERD Modelling

  4. Example 1 ERD from DATASTORE PO – PURCHASE ORDERS ERD Modelling

  5. ER MODEL : WORKED EXAMPLE • MODELLING FROM DATASTORES ORDERS • 1. Identify all entities in the above form. • ORDERS • SUPPLIERS • PARTS • PAYMENT-TERMS (PT) * tabular list of payment terms • CONTACT * tabular list of contact staff • 2. Allocate main attributes identified. • ORDERS(po#, odate) • SUPPLIERS(s#, sname, saddress, …….) • PARTS(p#, pdesc, …..) • PT(pt#, ptdesc) • CONTACT(c#, cname, cext) ERD Modelling

  6. Derive Entity Relationships • 1 ORDER must have 1 SUPPLIER • 1 SUPPLIER may have 0,1,M ORDER • 1 ORDER must have 1,M PARTS • 1 PART may be on have 0,1,M ORDER • 1 ORDER must have 1 PT • 1 PT may be on have 0,1,M ORDER • 1 ORDER must have 1 CONTACT • 1 CONTACT may be on have 0,1,M ORDER • 4 Diagram (ERD) for the above showing entities of interest with their associated attributes, relationships and dependency. ERD Modelling

  7. ERD Modelling

  8. 5. List a set of skeleton tables derived from your model • ORDERS(po#, odate) • SUPPLIERS(s#, sname, saddress, …….) • PARTS(p#, pdesc, …..) • PAYMENT-TERMS(pt#, ptdesc) • CONTACT(c#, cname, cext) • supplies(s#, po#) • contains(p#, QTY, po#) • terms(po#, pt#) • postaff(po#, c#) ERD Modelling

  9. 6. Populate your skeleton tables using the data provided in the above order form. ERD Modelling

  10. The previous data set is only a partial view. • Additional orders can be generated and added to the database. • The next slide shows how the sample order (figure A-2) affects our database. • Note : No REDUNDANT or DUPLICATED data in tables which show strong data INTEGRITY. ERD Modelling

  17. Example 3 ERD from a CASE STUDY Film Club Case Study: Film Club UK is a company that owns or leases a number of small cinemas in the UK. They have commissioned a database designer to design a database solution to enable them to maintain details about their cinemas and the films that they show. Note that it is possible to have two cinemas in the same location with the same name (there used to be two Odeons in Newcastle). It is also possible to have different films with the same title (for example, different versions of a Shakespeare play). Films are scheduled for one or more showings at a cinema within a ‘season’. Season details are to be notified in advance of the dates and times of showings, takings, etc. to be notified later. Any one film may have more than one season at any one cinema (for example, a cinema showing ‘The Snowman’ each Christmas). At present, all cinemas are single-screen. ERD Modelling

  18. Queries: • Details of number of employees (if any – some cinemas are small and manned by volunteers) at a cinema • Analyse takings and numbers of showings for films with times and dates of showings • List cinemas by seating capacity • List films shown anywhere since a certain date • List and summarise films by classification. ERD Modelling

  19. m m Shows Cinema Film Film Club UK is a company that owns or leases a number of small cinemas in the UK. They have commissioned a database designer to design a database solution to enable them to maintain details about their cinemas and the films that they show. Entities (and initial thoughts on relationships) • What does this ERD say about Cinemas and Films? • Write down the enterprise rules shown on the diagram (0,1,m etc.) • This looks sensible but we need to know more about cinemas and films. • Just because it looks good does not mean it is correct. • We have not looked at dealing with m:m relationships yet - very complicated. • A good start - but what next? • Find attributes and identifier for these entities. ERD Modelling

  20. m m Shows Cinema Film Note that it is possible to have two cinemas in the same location with the same name (there used to be two Odeons in Leicester Square). It is also possible to have different films with the same title (for example, different versions of a Shakespeare play). Cinema: Identifier: Cinema_id Attributes: Cinema_name, location, address, …. Film: Identifier: Film_id Attributes: title, duration, category, …. • Do these make good sense? • Could we have missed things at this stage? • Clearly an iterative process. ERD Modelling

  21. m m Shows Cinema Film Showing Season Films are scheduled for one or more showings at a cinema within a ‘season’. Season details are to be notified in advance of the dates and times of showings, takings, etc. to be notified later. More entities ... and Showing: Attributes: date, time, takings? • Try to redraw the E-R diagram including these 2 entities. • A useful trick: Where is the ‘money’? • Working backwards from entities that are key business things (money?) can work well. ERD Modelling

  22. 1 1 m m of at Cinema Film Season • Write out the enterprise rules for this version. • Notice the direction of the relationship names. • The direction is away from the ‘business entity. • You can get a lot out of ‘Where is the money?’ and ‘Where is the business?’ We can add showing later ... A cinemahas 0,1,m season(s) A seasonis at exactly 1 cinema A filmis shown in 0,1,m season(s) A seasonof exactly 1 film • So what about the showing entity? • Try to add the showing entity to your ERD. ERD Modelling

  23. 1 1 m m of at 1 Film Cinema in m Showing Season • Write out the enterprise rules for new relationship. A seasoninvolves 0,1,m showing(s) A showingis in exactly 1 season • Why not relate showing to film? It is a showing of a film … • All the showings in a season are the same film. • Could you have a season that does not have any showings? (yet!) ERD Modelling

  24. 1 1 m m of at 1 Cinema Film in m Showing Season Any one film may have more than one season at any one cinema (for example, a cinema showing ‘The Snowman’ each Christmas). At present, all cinemas are single-screen. • Have we coped with this already? • Will the model cope with multi-screen cinemas? • We would need a screen entity - try this for yourself later. ERD Modelling

  25. Showing Season Identifiers and • Season: Identifier: season_idorfilm, cinema, start_date ?? • Attributes: start_date, end_date, total_takings • Showing: Identifier: season_id, date, time or showing_id • Attributes: takings, adult_tickets, child_tickets, • concession_tickets, free_passes, …… • Is total_takings redundant? • This is a derived attribute - explained later.
