A college course may have one or more scheduled sections or may not have a scheduled section. Attributes of COURSE include Course ID, Course Name, and Units. Attributes of SECTION include Section Number and Semester ID. Semester ID is composed of two parts: Semester and Year. Section Number is an integer (such as 1 or 2) that distinguishes one section from another for the same course but does not uniquely identify a section. How did you model SECTION? Why did you choose this way versus alternative ways to model SECTION?
Draw an Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD) based on the flat files that have been supplied. Your ERD must incorporate all the entities and attributes supplied, as well as establishing the relationships between the entities
Each department runs a number of courses. The university provides a set of modules used in different courses. Each course uses a number of modules but not every module is used. A course is assigned a unique course code and a module is identified by a unique module code. A module can be used in one course only, but can be studied by many students. In addition to the module code each module unique title, start date, end date, texts (books), and assessment scheme (i.e., coursework and exam marks percentages) are also stored.
Each course is managed by a member of academic staff, and each module is coordinated by a member of academic staff also. The database should also store each course unique title, and duration (in years).
A student can enroll in one course at a time. Once enrolled a student is assigned a unique matriculation number. To complete a course, each student must undertake and pass all the required modules in his/her course. This requires that the database store the…

A publisher publishes one or more books; a book is published by exactly one publisher. A book is identified by its ISBN, and other attributes are title, price, and number of pages. Each book is written by one or more authors; an author writes one or more books, potentially for different publishers. Each author is uniquely described by an author ID, and we know each author’s name and address. Each author is paid a certain royalty rate on each book he or she authors, which potentially varies for each book and for each author. An author receives a separate royalty check for each book he or she writes. Each check is identified by its check number, and we also keep track of the date and amount of each check. As you develop the ERD for this problem, follow good data naming guidelines.arrow_forwardExplain why an index is only helpful if an attribute's values are sufficiently diverse.arrow_forward
- Please draw an Entity-Relationship diagram for the given below MOVIE database. The data requirements are summarized as follows: Each movie is identified by title and year of release. Each movie has a length in minutes. Each has a production company, and each is classified under one or more genres (such as horror, action, drama, and so forth). Each movie has one or more directors and one or more actors appear in it. Each movie also has a plot outline. Finally, each movie has zero or more quotable quotes, each of which is spoken by a particular actor appearing in the movie. Actors are identified by name and date of birth and appear in one or more movies. Each actor has a role in the movie. Directors are also identified by name and date of birth and direct one or more movies. It is possible for a director to act in a movie (including one that he or she may also direct). Production companies are identified by name and each has an address. A production company produces one or more movies.arrow_forwardAn E-learning website needs your help to design its database. They need to store information about teachers and online tutorials. Each teacher has a unique ID, name, and at least one field of specialty. Teachers form groups to prepare online tutorials. Each group has unique name and at least one teacher as a member. Each online tutorial has a title, date and organized by exactly one group. The title of the tutorial is unique for the group. Each tutorial consists of several sessions, described by their titles and durations. Naturally, each session is presented by one teacher and belongs to exactly one tutorial. In addition, sessions on the same tutorial have different titles. Design an ERD for this application. Note any unspecified requirements, and make appropriate assumptions to make the specification complete.arrow_forwardExplain why an index is only helpful if an attribute's values cover a suitable range.

Chemists also may use certain kinds of equipment on each project. Attributes of CHEMIST include Employee ID (identifier), Name, and Phone No. Attributes of PROJECT include Project ID (identifier) and Start Date. Attributes of EQUIPMENT include Serial No and Cost. The organization wishes to record Assign Date—that is, the date when a given equipment item was assigned to a particular chemist working on a specified project. A chemist must be assigned to at least one project and one equipment item. A given equipment item need not be assigned, and a given project need not be assigned either a chemist or an equipment item.
