Explanation of Solution

Functional dependencies:

Functional dependency is a term in the relational database theory which refers to a constraint that is located in between the two sets of attributes in a relation from a database. The functional dependencies are as follows...

Explanation of Solution

Database:

The given database comprises of the following tables with the respective columns as shown below.

  • DEPARTMENT – DEPARTMENT NUM, DEPARTMENT_NAME
  • ADVISOR – ADVISOR_NUM, ADVISOR_LAST_NAME,ADVISOR_FIRST_NAME,DEPARTMENT_NUM
  • COURSE – COURSE_CODE, DESCRIPTION
  • STUDENT – STUDENT_NUM, STUDENT_LAST_NAME,STUDENT_FIRST_NAME, ADVISOR_NUM

Relations:

Program Plan Intro

Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD):

Entity relationship diagram is basically a picture or snapshot about the business system. It means that the information stored and created is represented by this diagram.

  • Entities may represent the physical object, event, or concept.
  • An attribute is a property of an entity.
  • Relationship denotes the link between the entities.
    • If an independent child entity is present in a relationship then it is called a non-identifying relationship.

Suppose we have a database for an university. The requirements are as follows: • Professors have an SSN, a name, an age, a rank, and a research specialty. • Projects have a project number, a sponsor name (e.g., NSF), a starting date, an ending date, and a budget. • Graduate students have an SSN, a name, an age, and a degree program (e.g., M.S. or Ph.D.). • Each project is managed by one professor (known as the project’s principal investigator). • Each project is worked on by one or more professors (known as the project’s co-investigators). • Professors can manage and/or work on multiple projects. • Each project is worked on by one or more graduate students (known as the project’s research assistants). • When graduate students work on a project, a professor must supervise their work on the project. Graduate students can work on multiple projects, in which case they will have a (potentially different) supervisor for each one.   The FDs for the above requirements are given as, • PSSN →…
Suppose you are given the following requirements for a simple database for the National Hockey League (NHL):- the NHL has many teams,- each team has a name, a city, a coach, a captain, and a set of players,- each player belongs to only one team,- each player has a name, a position (such as left wing or goalie), a skill level, and a setof injury records,- a team captain is also a player,- a game is played between two teams (referred to as host_team and guest_team) andhas a date (such as May 11th, 2017) and a score (such as 4 to 2).Construct the ER diagram for the NHL database using the Crows Foot notation.
