- 13. Database Design • Conceptual design: (ER Model is used at this stage.) – What are the entities and relationships in the enterprise? – What information about these entities and relationships should we store in the database? – What are the integrity constraints or business rules that hold? – A database `schema’ in the ER Model can be represented pictorially (ER diagrams). – Can map an ER diagram into a relational schema. Slide No:L2-1
- 14. Modeling • A database can be modeled as: – a collection of entities, – relationship among entities. • An entity is an object that exists and is distinguishable from other objects. – Example: specific person, company, event, plant • Entities have attributes – Example: people have names and addresses • An entity set is a set of entities of the same type that share the same properties. – Example: set of all persons, companies, trees, holidays Slide No:L2-2
- 15. Entity Sets customer and loan customer_id customer_ customer_ customer_ loan_ amount name street city number Slide No:L2-3
- 16. Attributes • An entity is represented by a set of attributes, that is descriptive properties possessed by all members of an entity set. Example: customer = (customer_id, customer_name, customer_street, customer_city ) loan = (loan_number, amount ) • Domain – the set of permitted values for each attribute • Attribute types: – Simple and composite attributes. – Single-valued and multi-valued attributes • Example: multivalued attribute: phone_numbers – Derived attributes • Can be computed from other attributes • Example: age, given date_of_birth Slide No:L2-4
- 17. Composite Attributes Slide No:L2-5
- 18. Mapping Cardinality Constraints • Express the number of entities to which another entity can be associated via a relationship set. • Most useful in describing binary relationship sets. • For a binary relationship set the mapping cardinality must be one of the following types: – One to one – One to many – Many to one – Many to many Slide No:L2-6
- 19. Mapping Cardinalities One to one One to many Note: Some elements in A and B may not be mapped to any elements in the other set Slide No:L2-7
- 20. Mapping Cardinalities Many to one Many to many Note: Some elements in A and B may not be mapped to any elements in the other set Slide No:L2-8
- 21. ER Model Basics name ssn lot Employees • Entity: Real-world object distinguishable from other objects. An entity is described (in DB) using a set of attributes. • Entity Set: A collection of similar entities. E.g., all employees. – All entities in an entity set have the same set of attributes. (Until we consider ISA hierarchies, anyway!) – Each entity set has a key. – Each attribute has a domain. Slide No:L2-9
- 22. ER Model Basics (Contd.) name ssn lot since name dname ssn lot did budget Employees super- subord Employees Works_In Departments visor inate Reports_To • Relationship: Association among two or more entities. E.g., Attishoo works in Pharmacy department. • Relationship Set: Collection of similar relationships. – An n-ary relationship set R relates n entity sets E1 ... En; each relationship in R involves entities e1 E1, ..., en En • Same entity set could participate in different relationship sets, or in different “roles” in same set. Slide No:L2-10
- 23. Relationship Sets • A relationship is an association among several entities Example: Hayes depositor A-102 customer entityrelationship setaccount entity • A relationship set is a mathematical relation among n ≥ 2 entities, each taken from entity sets {(e1, e2, … en) | e1 ∈ E1, e2 ∈ E2, …, en ∈ En} where (e1, e2, …, en) is a relationship – Example: (Hayes, A-102) ∈ depositor Slide No:L3-1
- 24. Relationship Set borrower Slide No:L3-2
- 25. Relationship Sets (Cont.) • An attribute can also be property of a relationship set. • For instance, the depositor relationship set between entity sets customer and account may have the attribute access-date Slide No:L3-3
- 26. Degree of a Relationship Set • Refers to number of entity sets that participate in a relationship set. • Relationship sets that involve two entity sets are binary (or degree two). Generally, most relationship sets in a database system are binary. • Relationship sets may involve more than two entity sets. Slide No:L3-4
- 27. Degree of a Relationship Set Example: Suppose employees of a bank may have jobs (responsibilities) at multiple branches, with different jobs at different branches. Then there is a ternary relationship set between entity sets employee, job, and branch • Relationships between more than two entity sets are rare. Most relationships are binary. (More on this later.) Slide No:L3-5
- 28. Additional since features of the ER name dname model ssn lot did budget Key Constraints Employees Manages Departments • Consider Works_In: An employee can work in many departments; a dept can have many employees. • In contrast, each dept has at most one manager, according to the key constraint on Manages. 1-to-1 1-to Many Many-to-1 Many-to-Many Slide No:L4-1
- 29. Participation Constraints • Does every department have a manager? – If so, this is a participation constraint: the participation of Departments in Manages is said to be total (vs. partial). • Every Departments entity must appear in an instance of the Manages relationship. since name dname ssn lot did budget Employees Manages Departments Works_In since Slide No:L4-2
- 30. Weak Entities • A weak entity can be identified uniquely only by considering the primary key of another (owner) entity. – Owner entity set and weak entity set must participate in a one-to-many relationship set (one owner, many weak entities). – Weak entity set must have total participation in this identifying relationship set. name cost pname age ssn lot Employees Policy Dependents Slide No:L4-3
- 31. Weak Entity Sets • An entity set that does not have a primary key is referred to as a weak entity set. • The existence of a weak entity set depends on the existence of a identifying entity set – it must relate to the identifying entity set via a total, one-to-many relationship set from the identifying to the weak entity set – Identifying relationship depicted using a double diamond • The discriminator (or partial key) of a weak entity set is the set of attributes that distinguishes among all the entities of a weak entity set. • The primary key of a weak entity set is formed by the primary key of the strong entity set on which the weak entity set is existence dependent, plus the weak entity set’s discriminator. Slide No:L4-4
- 32. Weak Entity Sets (Cont.) • We depict a weak entity set by double rectangles. • We underline the discriminator of a weak entity set with a dashed line. • payment_number – discriminator of the payment entity set • Primary key for payment – (loan_number, payment_number) Slide No:L4-5
- 33. Weak Entity Sets (Cont.) • Note: the primary key of the strong entity set is not explicitly stored with the weak entity set, since it is implicit in the identifying relationship. • If loan_number were explicitly stored, payment could be made a strong entity, but then the relationship between payment and loan would be duplicated by an implicit relationship defined by the attribute loan_number common to payment and loan Slide No:L4-6
- 34. More Weak Entity Set Examples • In a university, a course is a strong entity and a course_offering can be modeled as a weak entity • The discriminator of course_offering would be semester (including year) and section_number (if there is more than one section) • If we model course_offering as a strong entity we would model course_number as an attribute. Then the relationship with course would be implicit in the course_number attribute Slide No:L4-7
- 35. ISA (`is a’) Hierarchies name As in C++, or other PLs, ssn lot attributes are inherited. If we declare A ISA B, Employees every A entity is also hourly_wages hours_worked considered to be a B ISA contractid entity. Contract_Emps Hourly_Emps • Overlap constraints: Can Joe be an Hourly_Emps as well as a Contract_Emps entity? (Allowed/disallowed) • Covering constraints: Does every Employees entity also have to be an Hourly_Emps or a Contract_Emps entity? (Yes/no) • Reasons for using ISA: – To add descriptive attributes specific to a subclass. – To identify entitities that participate in a relationship. Slide No:L5-1
- 36. Aggregation • Used when we have to name ssn lot model a relationship involving (entitity sets Employees and) a relationship set. – Aggregation allows us to treat a Monitors until relationship set as an entity set for purposes of started_on since dname participation in pid pbudget did (other) budget relationships. Projects Sponsors Departments Aggregation vs. ternary relationship: Monitors is a distinct relationship, with a descriptive attribute. Also, can say that each sponsorship is monitored by at most one employee. Slide No:L5-2
- 37. Aggregation Consider the ternary relationship works_on, which we saw earlier Suppose we want to record managers for tasks performed by an employee at a branch Slide No:L5-3
- 38. Aggregation (Cont.) • Relationship sets works_on and manages represent overlapping information – Every manages relationship corresponds to a works_on relationship – However, some works_on relationships may not correspond to any manages relationships • So we can’t discard the works_on relationship • Eliminate this redundancy via aggregation – Treat relationship as an abstract entity – Allows relationships between relationships – Abstraction of relationship into new entity Slide No:L5-4
- 39. Aggregation (Cont.) • Eliminate this redundancy via aggregation – Treat relationship as an abstract entity – Allows relationships between relationships – Abstraction of relationship into new entity • Without introducing redundancy, the following diagram represents: – An employee works on a particular job at a particular branch – An employee, branch, job combination may have an associated manager Slide No:L5-5
- 40. E-R Diagram With Aggregation Slide No:L5-6
- 41. Conceptual Design Using the ER Model • Design choices: – Should a concept be modeled as an entity or an attribute? – Should a concept be modeled as an entity or a relationship? – Identifying relationships: Binary or ternary? Aggregation? • Constraints in the ER Model: – A lot of data semantics can (and should) be captured. – But some constraints cannot be captured in ER diagrams. Slide No:L6-1
- 42. Entity vs. Attribute • Should address be an attribute of Employees or an entity (connected to Employees by a relationship)? • Depends upon the use we want to make of address information, and the semantics of the data: • If we have several addresses per employee, address must be an entity (since attributes cannot be set- valued). • If the structure (city, street, etc.) is important, e.g., we want to retrieve employees in a given city, address must be modeled as an entity (since attribute values are atomic). Slide No:L6-2
- 43. Entity vs. Attribute (Contd.) • Works_In4 does not allow an employee to from to work in a department name dname for two or more ssn lot did budget periods. • Similar to the Employees Works_In4 Departments problem of wanting to record several addresses for an employee: We want to record several values of the descriptive name dname ssn lot did budget attributes for each instance of this Employees Works_In4 Departments relationship. Accomplished by introducing new from Duration to entity set, Duration. Slide No:L6-3
- 44. Entity vs. Relationship • First ER diagram OK if a manager gets a separate since dbudget name dname discretionary budget for ssn lot did budget each dept. • What if a manager gets a Employees Manages2 Departments discretionary budget that covers all managed depts? name ssn lot – Redundancy: dbudget since dname stored for each dept did Employees budget managed by manager. – Misleading: Suggests Manages2 Departments dbudget associated ISA with department-mgr combination. This fixes the Managers dbudget problem! Slide No:L6-4
- 45. Binary vs. Ternary Relationships • If each policy is name owned by just 1 ssn lot pname age employee, and Employees Dependents Covers each dependent is tied to the Bad design Policies covering policy, first diagram is policyid cost inaccurate. name pname age ssn lot • What are the additional Dependents Employees constraints in the 2nd Purchaser Beneficiary diagram? Better design Policies Slide No:L6-5 policyid cost
- 46. Binary vs. Ternary Relationships (Contd.) • Previous example illustrated a case when two binary relationships were better than one ternary relationship. • An example in the other direction: a ternary relation Contracts relates entity sets Parts, Departments and Suppliers, and has descriptive attribute qty. No combination of binary relationships is an adequate substitute: – S “can-supply” P, D “needs” P, and D “deals-with” S does not imply that D has agreed to buy P from S. – How do we record qty? Slide No:L6-6
- 47. Summary of Conceptual Design • Conceptual design follows requirements analysis, – Yields a high-level description of data to be stored • ER model popular for conceptual design – Constructs are expressive, close to the way people think about their applications. • Basic constructs: entities, relationships, and attributes (of entities and relationships). • Some additional constructs: weak entities, ISA hierarchies, and aggregation. • Note: There are many variations on ER model. Slide No:L7-1
- 48. Summary of ER (Contd.) • Several kinds of integrity constraints can be expressed in the ER model: key constraints, participation constraints, and overlap/covering constraints for ISA hierarchies. Some foreign key constraints are also implicit in the definition of a relationship set. – Some constraints (notably, functional dependencies) cannot be expressed in the ER model. – Constraints play an important role in determining the best database design for an enterprise. Slide No:L7-2
- 49. Summary of ER (Contd.) • ER design is subjective. There are often many ways to model a given scenario! Analyzing alternatives can be tricky, especially for a large enterprise. Common choices include: – Entity vs. attribute, entity vs. relationship, binary or n- ary relationship, whether or not to use ISA hierarchies, and whether or not to use aggregation. • Ensuring good database design: resulting relational schema should be analyzed and refined further. FD information and normalization techniques are especially useful. Slide No:L7-3
