Chapter 3:Data Modeling

Introduction

An Overview of Databases

Steps in Developing a Database Using Resources, Events and Agents Model

Normalization

Chapter 3-2

Introduction

Uses of a modern AIS

Systematically record data

Provide convenient and useful formats

Easy access to information

Chapter 3-3

What is a Database?

Collection of organized data

Used by many different computer applications

Manipulated by database management systems (DBMS)

Chapter 3-4

Significance of a Database

Critical information

Volume

Distribution

Privacy

Irreplaceable data

Need for accuracy

Internet uses

Chapter 3-5

Data must be stored and organized systematically

Three important concepts: Data hierarchy Record structures Database keys

Storing Data in Databases

Chapter 3-6

Data Hierarchy

Data organization in ascending order:Data fieldRecordFileDatabase

Chapter 3-7

Record Structures

Data fields in each record of a database table

Structure is usually fixed

Example

Chapter 3-8

Database Keys

Primary KeyUnique to each record

Foreign KeysEnable referencing of one or more recordsMatches primary key of related table

Chapter 3-9

Records Combined Into Report

Chapter 3-10

Additional Database Issues

Administration Database Administrator

Documentation Includes a variety of descriptions Structures, Contents, Security Features Data Dictionary Metadata

Chapter 3-11

Data Dictionary Example

Chapter 3-12

Additional Database Issues

Data Integrity Data Integrity controls Designed by database developers

Processing Accuracy and Completeness Transaction controls Ensures accurate transaction processing

Chapter 3-13

Additional Database Issues

Concurrency Concurrency controls Prevent multi-user access at same time

Backup and Security Ability to recreate data Prevent unauthorized access View controls

Chapter 3-14

The part of the data hierarchy that represents one instance of an entity is a:

A. Field

B. Record

C. File

D. Database

Chapter 3-16

Within the context of databases, the term “concurrency” refers to the possibility that:

A. A customer of one store might also be a customer of another store

B. Two database users might want to access the same record at the same time

C. A credit entry for a customer requires a debit entry for a matching account

D. None of these

REA Model

Resources Organization’s assets

Events Activities associated with a business processes

Agents People associated with business activities

Chapter 3-19

Identify Business and Economic Events

Identify Entities

Identify Relationships Among Entities

Steps in DevelopingDatabases with REA

Chapter 3-20

Create Entity-Relationship Diagrams

Identify Attributes of Entities

Convert E-R Diagrams into Database Tables

Steps in DevelopingDatabases with REA

Chapter 3-21

Types of Events Business Economic

Types of Database Entities Entities Agents Resources

Identify Events and Entities

Chapter 3-22

Entity Examples

Chapter 3-23

Identify RelationshipsAmong Entities

Types of Relationships Direct relationship Indirect relationship

Cardinalities Nature of relationships among entities

Chapter 3-24

Cardinality Relationships

Notations One-to-one (1:1) One-to-many (1:N) Many-to-many (N:N)

Purpose Occurrence of one entity Associated with occurrence of one event of another entity

Chapter 3-25

Cardinality Relationships

Chapter 3-26

Purpose Diagram entities Relationships among entities

Structure Rectangles represent entities Connecting lines represent relationships

Entity-Relationship Diagram

Chapter 3-27

E-R Diagram Example

Chapter 3-28

Relationship Tables

Provide greater flexibility

Need for Relationship Tables Linking tables with foreign keys Many-to-many relationships

Chapter 3-29

Relationship Tables

Chapter 3-30

Schematic of Database Tables

Chapter 3-31

In the REA model, the “A” stands for:

A. Agents

B. Additions

C. Accounts

D. Associations

Chapter 3-35

Normalization

Normalization Methodology ensuring attributes are stored in most

appropriate tables Design promotes accuracy Avoids redundancy of data storage

Levels First normal form Second normal form Third normal form

Chapter 3-36

Unnormalized Data

Chapter 3-37

First Normal Form

In First Normal Form (1 NF) when: All data fields are singular Each attribute has one value

Problems Data redundancy Insertion anomaly Deletion anomaly

Chapter 3-38

First Normal Form Example

Chapter 3-39

Second Normal Form

In Second Normal Form (2 NF) when: It is in 1 NF All data items depend on primary record key

Benefits More efficient design Eliminates data redundancy

Chapter 3-40

Second Normal Form Example

Chapter 3-41

Third Normal Form

In Third Normal Form (3 NF) when: It is in 2 NF Does not contain transitive dependencies Data field A does not determine data field B

Ultimate Goal Create database in 3 NF

Chapter 3-42

Third Normal Form Example

Chapter 3-43

A database is in third normal form (3NF) if it is second normal form and:

A. All the data attributes in a record are well defined

B. All the data attributes in a record depend on the record key

C. The data contain to transitive dependencies

D. The data can be stored in two or more separate tables
