- The specialization hierarchy is a “is-a” relationship model.
- It contains many levels of subtype or supertype relationships.
- Subtype is related to an entity supertype, where the supertype entity has common characteristics and the subtype entity has the unique characteristics of each entity subtype.
Example:
The following example demonstrates specialization hierarchy.
Explanation:
- Here, “Employee” entity is a “Supertype” entity...
