Slide 3 A. Computer Company Problem ProgLtd is a company that places computer programmers at temporary jobs. They keep track on each programmer: the programmer's identification number, the programmer's last name, the programmer's first name, the programmer's rank (Junior, Senior...), gender, his/her hourly rate and what languages the programmer knows. Beside, each programmer has been issued a badge which is used for enter their office. On each badge has following information: badge’s code, the programmer's identification number, issued date.

Slide 4 ProgLtd deals with clients who may require programmers who know a particular programming language. Once a programmer is assigned a temporary job, ProgLtd would like to keep track of when he/she started the job, the total number of hours he/she is expected to spend at job and the date he/she finished the job. That is in addition to the client name and phone number where the temp has been assigned. Let’s design DB diagram for above requirements

Slide 14 1.6.1.1. Maximum Cardinality Definition Maximum Cardinality is the maximum number of entity instances that can participate in a relationship. There are three types of maximum cardinality: One-to-One [1:1] One-to-Many [1:N] Many-to-Many [N:M]

Slide 16 1.6.2. Identify Minimum Cardinality 1.6.2.1. Minimum Identifier Definition 1.6.2.2. Minimum Cardinality on Diagram
17
Slide 17 1.6.2.1. Minimum Identifier Definition Minimum Cardinality is the minimum number of entity instances that must participate in a relationship. Minimums are generally stated as either zero or one: IF zero [0] THEN participation in the relationship by the entity is optional, and no entity instance must participate in the relationship. IF one [1] THEN participation in the relationship by the entity is mandatory, and at least one entity instance must participate in the relationship.
