9 2006.09.05 - SLIDE 9IS 257 - Fall 2006 Test Database The DiveShop database contains information for the business operations of a skin & scuba diving shop that: –Organizes trips to particular locations (destinations) with various dive sites –Dive sites have various features including types of marine life found there other features (like shipwrecks) –Rents/Sells equipment to dive customers for particular trips.

10 2006.09.05 - SLIDE 10IS 257 - Fall 2006 ER Diagrams Entity-Relationship Diagrams are one of the main tools for database design We will examine ER diagrams in greater detail later ER Diagrams show Entities (rectangles) and their attributes (ovals) and the relationships between entities (diamonds)

15 2006.09.05 - SLIDE 15IS 257 - Fall 2006 Information Systems Planning Scope of IS is now the entire organization Sometimes called “enterprise-wide” computing or “Information Architecture” Problem: isolated groups in an organization start their own databases and it becomes impossible to find out who has what information, where there are overlaps, and to assess the accuracy of the information

16 2006.09.05 - SLIDE 16IS 257 - Fall 2006 Information Systems Planning To support enterprise-wide computing, there must be enterprise-wide information planning One framework for thinking about and planning for enterprise-wide computing is an Information Systems Architecture or ISA Most organizations do NOT have such an architecture

17 2006.09.05 - SLIDE 17IS 257 - Fall 2006 Lecture Outline Review –Database Life Cycle –Dive Shop DB –Access Information Systems Planning Information Systems Architecture Information Engineering Database Design

18 2006.09.05 - SLIDE 18IS 257 - Fall 2006 Information Systems Architecture An ISA is a “conceptual blueprint or plan that expresses the desired future structure for information systems in an organization” It provides a “context within which managers throughout the organization can make consistent decisions concerning their information systems” –Quotes from McFadden (Modern Database Management, 4 th edition), Ch. 3

19 2006.09.05 - SLIDE 19IS 257 - Fall 2006 Information Systems Architecture Benefits of ISA: –“Provides a basis for strategic planning of IS –Provides a basis for communicating with top management and a context for budget decisions concerning IS –Provides a unifying concept for the various stakeholders in information systems. –Communicates the overall direction for information technology and a context for decisions in this area –Helps achieve information integration when systems are distributed (increasing important in a global economy) –Provides a basis for evaluating technology options (for example, downsizing and distributed processing)” –Quotes from McFadden (Modern Database Management, 4 th edition), Ch. 3

20 2006.09.05 - SLIDE 20IS 257 - Fall 2006 Information Systems Architecture Zachman ISA Framework components –Data The “What” of the information system –Process The “How” of the information system –Network The “Where” of the information system –People Who performs processes and are the source and receiver of data and information. –Events and Points in time When processes are performed –Reasons Why: For events and rules that govern processing

21 2006.09.05 - SLIDE 21IS 257 - Fall 2006 Information Systems Architecture Six roles or perspectives of the Data, Process and Network components –Business scope (Owner) –Business model (Architect) –Information systems model (Designer) –Technology model (Builder) –Technology definition (Contractor) –Information system (User)

35 2006.09.05 - SLIDE 35IS 257 - Fall 2006 Database Design Process Requirements formulation and analysis –Purpose: Identify and describe the data that are used by the organization –Results: Metadata identified, Data Dictionary, Conceptual Model-- ER diagram

36 2006.09.05 - SLIDE 36IS 257 - Fall 2006 Database Design Process Requirements Formulation and analysis –Systems Analysis Process Examine all of the information sources used in existing applications Identify the characteristics of each data element –numeric –text –date/time –etc. Examine the tasks carried out using the information Examine results or reports created using the information

37 2006.09.05 - SLIDE 37IS 257 - Fall 2006 Database Design Process Conceptual Model –Merge the collective needs of all applications –Determine what Entities are being used Some object about which information is to maintained –What are the Attributes of those entities? Properties or characteristics of the entity What attributes uniquely identify the entity –What are the Relationships between entities How the entities interact with each other?

38 2006.09.05 - SLIDE 38IS 257 - Fall 2006 Database Design Process Logical Model –How is each entity and relationship represented in the Data Model of the DBMS Hierarchic? Network? Relational? Object-Oriented?

41 2006.09.05 - SLIDE 41IS 257 - Fall 2006 Developing a Conceptual Model Overall view of the database that integrates all the needed information discovered during the requirements analysis. Elements of the Conceptual Model are represented by diagrams, Entity-Relationship or ER Diagrams, that show the meanings and relationships of those elements independent of any particular database systems or implementation details.

42 2006.09.05 - SLIDE 42IS 257 - Fall 2006 Entity An Entity is an object in the real world (or even imaginary worlds) about which we want or need to maintain information –Persons (e.g.: customers in a business, employees, authors) –Things (e.g.: purchase orders, meetings, parts, companies) Employee

43 2006.09.05 - SLIDE 43IS 257 - Fall 2006 Attributes Attributes are the significant properties or characteristics of an entity that help identify it and provide the information needed to interact with it or use it. (This is the Metadata for the entities.) Employee Last Middle First Name SSN Age Birthdate Projects

44 2006.09.05 - SLIDE 44IS 257 - Fall 2006 Relationships Relationships are the associations between entities. They can involve one or more entities and belong to particular relationship types
