Entity-Relationship diagram:

  • Entity-Relationship (ER) diagram is the method to represent the relational database using graphical form.
  • This graphical representation shows only primary elements such as records, types, attributes, relationships between entities, and so on.
  • The graphical representation of the ER diagram clearly describes the relationship among entities.
  • In the diagram, every connector is labeled.
    • On one side it is represented by the value 1, and on the other side it is labeled with the value “M”. This labeling is referred to as “cardinality constraint” of the relationship.

Data redundancy:

Database is a group of interrelated and organized data which helps to access, manage, and update the data easily.

  • Database should be designed carefully by avoiding inconsistent data, redundant data, and misuse of the data.
  • If same data occurs more than once, then it is called data redundancy.
  • For example, maintaining two same details in two different tables increases the overall database size and both needs to be updated unnecessarily. Otherwise, it may cause error when retrieving the data.
  • Hence, redundant data should be avoided when designing database.

Lab 07: Java Graphics (Bonus lab) In this lab, we'll be practicing what we learned about GUIs, and Mouse events. You will need to implement the following: ➤ A GUI with a drawing panel. We can click in this panel, and you will capture those clicks as a Point (see java.awt.Point) in a PointCollection class (you need to build this). о The points need to be represented by circles. Below the drawing panel, you will need 5 buttons: о An input button to register your mouse to the drawing panel. ○ о о A show button to paint the points in your collection on the drawing panel. A button to shift all the points to the left by 50 pixels. The x position of the points is not allowed to go below zero. Another button to shift all the points to the right 50 pixels. The x position of the points cannot go further than the You can implement this GUI in any way you choose. I suggest using the BorderLayout for a panel containing the buttons, and a GridLayout to hold the drawing panel and button panels.…
If a UDP datagram is sent from host A, port P to host B, port Q, but at host B there is no process listening to port Q, then B is to send back an ICMP Port Unreachable message to A. Like all ICMP messages, this is addressed to A as a whole, not to port P on A. (a)  Give an example of when an application might want to receive such ICMP messages. (b)  Find out what an application has to do, on the operating system of your choice, to receive such messages. (c)  Why might it not be a good idea to send such messages directly back to the originating port P on A?
