Entity Relationship (E-R) Modeling Chapter 3 Entity Relationship (E-R) Modeling Database Systems: Design, Implementation, and Management, Fifth Edition, Rob and Coronel

In this chapter, you will learn: What a conceptual model is and what its purpose is The difference between internal and external models How internal and external models serve the database design process How relationships between entities are defined and refined, and how such relationships are incorporated into the database design process How ERD components affect database design and implementation How to interpret the modeling symbols for the four most popular E-R modeling tools That real-world database design often requires you to reconcile conflicting goals Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

Basic Modeling Concepts Art and science Good judgment coupled with powerful design tools Models “Description or analogy used to visualize something that cannot be directly observed” Webster’s Dictionary Data Model Relatively simple representation of complex real-world data structures Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

Data Models: Degrees of Data Abstraction Figure 3.1 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

Degrees of Abstraction Conceptual Global view of data Basis for identification and description of main data items ERD used to represent conceptual data model Hardware and software independent Internal Representation of database as seen by DBMS Adapts conceptual model to specific DBMS Software dependent Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

Degrees of Abstraction (con’t.) External Users’ views of data environment Provides subsets of internal view Makes application program development easier Facilitates designers’ tasks Ensures adequacy of conceptual model Ensures security constraints in design Physical Lowest level of abstraction Software and hardware dependent Requires definition of physical storage devices and access methods Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

The Entity Relationship (E-R) Model Represents conceptual view Main Components Entities Corresponds to entire table, not row Represented by rectangle Attributes Relationships Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

Attributes Characteristics of entities Domain is set of possible values Primary keys underlined Figure 3.6 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

Attributes (con’t.) Simple Composite Multi-valued Derived Cannot be subdivided Age, sex, marital status Composite Can be subdivided into additional attributes Address into street, city, zip Single-valued Can have only a single value Person has one social security number Multi-valued Can have many values Person may have several college degrees Derived Can be derived with algorithm Age can be derived from date of birth Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

Relationships Association between entities Connected entities are called participants Operate in both directions Connectivity describes relationship classification 1:1, 1:M, M:N Cardinality Expresses number of entity occurrences associated with one occurrence of related entity Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

Connectivity and Cardinality in an ERD Figure 3.12 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

Relationship Strength Existence dependence Entity’s existence depends on existence of related entities Existence-independent entities can exist apart from related entities EMPLOYEE claims DEPENDENT Weak (non-identifying) One entity is existence-independent on another PK of related entity doesn’t contain PK component of parent entity Strong (identifying) One entity is existence-dependent on another PK of related entity contains PK component of parent entity Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

Relationship Participation Optional Entity occurrence does not require a corresponding occurrence in related entity Shown by drawing a small circle on side of optional entity on ERD Mandatory Entity occurrence requires corresponding occurrence in related entity If no optionality symbol is shown on ERD, it is mandatory Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

Weak Entity Existence-dependent on another entity Has primary key that is partially or totally derived from parent entity Figure 3.19 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

Relationship Degree Indicates number of associated entities Unary Single entity Recursive Exists between occurrences of same entity set Binary Two entities associated Ternary Three entities associated Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

Three Types of Relationships Figure 3.21 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

Composite Entities Used to ‘bridge’ between M:N relationships Bridge entities composed of primary keys of each entity needing connection Figure 3.30 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

Composite Entities (con’t.) Figure 3.31 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel

Entity Supertypes and Subtypes Generalization hierarchy Depicts relationships between higher-level supertype and lower-level subtype entities Supertype has shared attributes Subtypes have unique attributes Disjoint relationships Unique subtypes Non-overlapping Indicated with a ‘G’ Overlapping subtypes use ‘Gs’ Symbol Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5th Edition, Rob & Coronel
