  3. Entities • An entity is a person, place, object, event, or concept in the user environment about which the organization wishes to maintain data. • Person: Employee, Student, patient • Place: Warehouse, Store • Object: Product, Machine. • Event: Registration, Sale, Renewal • Concept: Account, Course • Physical existence: • Customer, student, product, etc. • Conceptual existence: • Bank accounts

  6. Entity-Relationship Diagram • ER modeling begins by identifying the entities and relationships between entities that must be represented in the model. • In an ERD, an entity type is represented by a rectangle labeled with a singular name. • A relationship has a verb phrase name: • Faculty teach Course, Faculty advise Student

  7. M:M Relationship Peter Paul John Woody Alan Mary Linda Nancy Mia Pia Girl Boy A boy may date 0, 1, or many girls. A girl may date 0, 1, or many boys. Note: “Many boys date many girls” is not a correct interpretation.

  13. Attributes • Properties of an entity or a relationship. • Single-valued attributes vs multivalued attributes • Derived attributes • Primary key

  14. FullName DateOfBirth SID Lname Fname Age Student Major

  15. Domains of Attributes • The set of allowable values for one or more attributes. • Input validation • Examples: • Sex: F, M • EmpHourlyWage: Between 6 and 300 • EmpName: 50 charcters

  16. Introduction to Relational Database • Data is logically structured within relations. • Each relation is a table (file) with named columns (attributes, fields) and rows (records).

  17. Properties of a Relation • Simple attribute • No composite, no multivalued attribute • Each relation must have a primary key: • Simple or composite key • May have other keys (candidate keys) • Key cannot be null • Cannot be duplicated

  18. Relational Database Design • Create a table for each entity that includes all simple attributes • Relationship: • 1:1, 1:M • Relationship table • Foreign key • M:M: relationship table

  19. Database Design Example • University: • 1:1 Relationship: • Student and Account • What is Peter’s account balance • Find students that owe more than 2000 dollars. • 1:M Relationship • Faculty Advisor and student • Who is Peter’s advisor? • How many students advised by Chao? • M:M Relationship • Student and course • How many units Peter takes? • Find students that are taking 363.
