DRAW AN ER DIAGRAM FOR THE GIVEN SITUATION
The video rental company has several branches throughout the USA. The data held on each branch is the branch address made up of street, city, state, and zip code, and the telephone number. Each branch is given a branch number, which is unique throughout the company. Each branch has allocated staff which includes a Manager. The manager is responsible for the day to day running of the given branch. The data held on a member of staff is his or her name, position, and salary. Each member of staff is given a staff number, which is unique throughout the company.Each branch has a stock of videos. The data held on a video is the catalog number, video number, title, category, daily rental, cost status, and the names of the main actors, and the director. The catalog number uniquely identifies each video. However, in most cases, there are several copies of each video at a branch, and the individual copies are identified using the video number. A video…

- Draw an ERD for the following problem:Company organized into departments. Each department has unique, name and a particular employee who manages the department. Start date for the manager is recorded. Department may have several locations. A department controls a number of projects. Projects have a unique name, number and a single location. Company’s employees name, ssno, address, salary, sex and birth date are recorded. An employee is assigned to one department, but may work for several projects (not necessarily controlled by her dept). Number of hours/week an employee works on each project is recorded; the immediate Supervisor for the employee. Employee’s dependents are tracked for health insurance purposes (dependent name, birthdate, relationship to employee).arrow_forwardDrawing on this Schema Suppliers(sID, sName, address) Parts(pID, pName, colour) Catalog(sID, pID, price) 1.

- Draw an ERD for the following scenario: A department employs many employees, but each employee is employed by one department. Each employee has the following characteristics: emp_Num, emp_FName, empLName, empAdress. Each department has a code and a name. Some employees, known as “rovers,” are not assigned to any department. A division operates many departments, but each department is operated by one division. Each division has a code and a name. An employee may be assigned many projects, and a project may have many employees assigned to it. Each project has a code and a name. An assignment is characterized by a date and number of hours. A project must have at least one employee assigned to it. One of the employees manages each department, and each department is managed by only one employee. One of the employees runs each division, and each division is run by only one employee.arrow_forwardUse the ER Diagram shown on Figure 1 to answer question 9: 9. According to the ER diagram on Figure 1, which of the following is true? A) For each employee, we will keep track of either the employee name or the unique employee ID. B) For each department, we will keep track of either the unique department ID or the department location. C) Each employee reports to exactly one department. A department may have many employees reporting to it, but it does not have to have any. D) None of the above.

You may assume the following:• Each material item has one or more suppliers. Each supplier may supply one or more items or may not supply any items.• The unit price for a material item may vary from one vendor to another.• The terms code for a supplier uniquely identifies the terms of the sale (e.g., code 2 means 10 percent net 30 days). The terms for a supplier are the same for all material items ordered from that supplier.arrow_forward
- Luxury-Oriented Scenic Tours (LOST) provides guided tours to groups of visitors to the Washington, D.C. area. In recent years, LOST has grown quickly and is having difficulty keeping up with all of the various information needs of the company. The company's operations are as follows: LOST offers many different tours. For each tour, the tour name, approximate length (in hours), and fee charged is needed. Guides are identified by an employee ID, but the system should also record a guide's name, home address, and date of hire. Guides take a test to be qualified to lead specific tours. It is important to know which guides are qualified to lead which tours and the date that they completed the qualification test for each tour. A guide may be qualified to lead many different tours. A tour can have many different qualified guides. New guides may or may not be qualified to lead any tours, just as a new tour may or may not have any qualified guides. Every tour must be designed to visit at least…arrow_forwardA derived attribute can be stored in a table or calculated on each occasion that it is required. An example of a derived attribute is your Grade Point Average which is calculated by adding together a score for each unit (e.g., HD=4, D=3, C=2, P=1, N=0) and dividing that by the number of units you have completed. Explain how the decision as to whether the Grade Point Average would be stored in a table or calculated would be made. You are administering a database in a large retail company that records sales at each of the company’s stores. Tuning the database to improve performance by adding indexes and optimising query execution is an important ongoing aspect of the physical database design. Which attributes in a database such as this (apart from the primary key) are likely to BENEFIT from being indexed? Which attributes would you generally avoid indexing, and why?arrow_forwardUsing the ERD diagram above, explain what would happen if the minimal cardinality was changed to “1” for Raw Materials. (i.e., the relationship becomes "raw materials are used in 1 to many items.”). Please note that the current ER diagram shows the following relationship, “raw materials are used in 0 to many items.”arrow_forward

For each store, the manager would like to know its correspondingcity and country.You have to design a star schema to achieve the goal of this manager.2) If you think that some of your proposed dimension tables in Q1, are not normalized, you have to convertyour star schema into snowflake schema to normalize these dimension tables.arrow_forwardBob’s Supply (BS) needs to keep track of the parts they have in their inventory. He wants to know the description of each part, the color of each part, how many of each item is in stock [QOH], and how much each part costs him. BS also needs to keep track of who supplies each part, the supplier’s name, contact person, and telephone number. We know that each part in inventory has only one supplier, but some suppliers supply multiple parts to BS. Bob wants each part and each supplier to be assigned a unique identifying number. Create the database design for this case below using an Entity-Relationship Diagram.arrow_forward
