PURPOSE:

The purpose of this lab is to learn about Database Design using Normalization Techniques and ER-Diagrams.

IMPLEMENTATION:

For this lab, consider solving all of the following:

a) Review Questions 8 a) b) (Using Chen/IDEF1X model notation) on page 161 of the text1.

b) Problems 5 a) b) c) d) e) on pg. 163, 164 of the text1. Go ahead and show the cardinality, even if the model doesn’t allow it.

For the ER-diagrams and dependency diagrams, you can use any commercial software (MS-Word, Visio [which contains built-in templates in the Database folder], ERWin, MS-Paint etc.). Clearly label/write any assumptions you make during the design.
