ACIS 5504 Question 2.jpg

Appendix #3 – Normalization

This example is intended to demonstrate how to complete this requirement:

Un-normalized:

Covert to 1NF:

From 1st NF R1 (Supplier_No, Status, City, Part_No, Quantity)

Functional Dependencies: (Supplier_No, Part_No) Quantity (Supplier_No) Status (Supplier_No) City City Status (Supplier's status is determined by location)

Convert to 2NF

SUPPLIER (Supplier_No, Status, City) SUPPLIER_PART (Supplier_No, Part_No, Quantity)

From 1NF TABLE (GROUP_NUMBER, GROUP_NAME, GROUP_MAXSIZE, PERSON_ID, PERSON_NAME, TITLE, RATE)

Functional Dependencies: (GROUP_NUMBER) GROUP_NAME, GROUP_MAXSIZE (PERSON_ID) PERSON_NAME (PERSON_ID, GROUP_NUMBER) TITLE, RATE

Convert to 2NF

GROUPS (GROUP_NUMBER, GROUP_NAME, GROUP_MAXSIZE) PEOPLE(PERSON_ID, PERSON_NAME)

ASSIGNMENTS(GROUP_NUMBER, PERSON_ID, TITLE, RATE)

From 2NF

GROUPS (GROUP_NUMBER, GROUP_NAME, GROUP_MAXSIZE) PEOPLE(PERSON_ID, PERSON_NAME)

ASSIGNMENTS(GROUP_NUMBER, PERSON_ID, TITLE, RATE)

Functional Dependencies

(TITLE) RATE

Covert to 3NF

GROUPS (GROUP_NUMBER, GROUP_NAME, GROUP_MAXSIZE) PEOPLE(PERSON_ID, PERSON_NAME)

ASSIGNMENTS(GROUP_NUMBER, PERSON_ID, TITLE)

TITLES(TITLE, RATE)

Appendix #4 – E/R Model (created using Crowsfoot notation)

· Airline Database ER Model

Appendix #5 – Rules for Converting E/R model to Relational Model

· Converting ER Models to Relational

· Entities: All entities are converted to relations using the identifier for the entity as the primary key.

· Relationships:

· M-N: Form a new relation with the primary keys of the related entity sets. These keys make up a composite key for the new relation. Add any attributes that may be connected to this relation.

· 1-M: Add the primary key of entity(1) as a foreign key in entity(M).

· (exception: if entity(1) is optional use rule for M-N)

· 1-1: Add the primary key of one entity to the other as a foreign key (exception: If any entity is optional then add the primary key of the mandatory entity to the other. If both entities are optional use rule for M-N)

· is-a: Add the primary key of the super-class entity to the sub-class entity.

· For recursive relationships, simply mimic the rules for the relationships (M:N, 1:N, 1:1) above

Appendix #6 – Converted Relational Model

Converted Relational Model

Pilots(Empid, Hours_flown)

Crew(Empid,Empname,Emp_tele)

Flights(FlightNum,Origin,Destination,Dep_time,Arr_time)

Passengers(Pid,Pname,Ptele,Paddress,Flight_no)

Assigned(Empid,Flight_no,Day-of-week)

· Underline – Primary Key

· Italics (or dashed line) – Foreign Key

· Underline Two or more attributes – Composite Key
