Draw an E-R diagram for the description below.
Ebony and Ivory, a piano manufacturer, wants to keep track of all the pianos it makes. Each piano has an identifying serial number and a manufacturing completion date. Each instrument represents exactly one piano model. Each piano model has an identification number and a name. Over time, the company often manufactures thousands of pianos of a certain model, and the model design is specified before any single piano exists. Ebony and Ivory employs piano technicians who are responsible for inspecting the instruments before they are shipped to the customers. Each piano is inspected by at least one technician (identified by their employee number). Each technician has a set one or more specialties. Some technicians may not be responsible for inspection jobs. For each separate inspection, the company needs to record its date and a quality evaluation grade. The piano technicians have a hierarchy of reporting relationships: some of them have…

A technology company provides offerings to its customers. Offerings are of two separate types: products and services. Offerings are identified by an offering ID and an attribute of description. In addition, products are described by product name, standard price, and date of first release; services are described by name of the company’s unit responsible for the service and conditions of service. There are repair, maintenance, and other types of services. A repair service has a cost and is the repair of some product; a maintenance service has an hourly rate. Fortunately, some products never require repair. However, there are many potential repair services for a product. A customer may purchase an offering, and the company needs to keep track of when the offering was purchased and the contact person for that offering with the customer. Unfortunately, not all offerings are purchased. Customers are…arrow_forwardDraw 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_forward

The following product information is stored: product name, product ID and quantity on hand. These products are made up of many components. Each component can be supplied by one or more suppliers. The following component information is kept: component ID, name, description, suppliers who supply them, and products in which they are used. Create an ERD to show how you would track this information. Show entity names (5m), primary keys (5m), attributes for each entity (5m), relationships between the entities (4m) and cardinality (4m). Assumptions A supplier can exist without providing components. A component does not have to be associated with a supplier. A component does not have to be associated with a product. Not all components are used in products. A product cannot exist without components.arrow_forward
- Draw the EER diagrams for the following problems using UML notation, Crow’s Foot notation and Chen notation: A large organization has several parking lots, which are used by staff. Each parking lot has a unique name, location, capacity, and number of floors. Each parking lot has parking spaces, which are uniquely identified using a space number. Members of staff can request the use of a parking space. Each member of staff has a unique number, name, telephone extension number, and vehicle registration number. The majority parking spaces are under cover and can be allocated for use by a member of staff for a monthly rate. Parking spaces that are not under cover are free to use when available. Up to twenty covered parking spaces are available for use by visitors to the company. However, only members of staff are able to book out a space for the day of the visit. There is no charge for this type of booking, but the member of staff must provide the visitor’s vehicle license number.…arrow_forwardDraw 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_forwardTransfer the following description into an ER Diagram: A company has one or more locations referred to as "Plants" (Plant-ID). Several plants are uniquely assigned to the same company code (CC-ID). Plants can have several storage locations (S-loc-#) in which the manufactured and purchased items are stocked, a storage location however, can only be assigned to one plant. A purchase organisation (PO-ID) can be assigned to several plants and a plant to several purchase organisations. A company code is related to one or more purchase organisations, the latter is uniquely related to a company code. A distribution channel (DC-#) can be assigned to several divisions (Div-ID), whereas a division is uniquely assigned to a distribution channel. A sales organisation (Sales-Org-ID) can have several distribution channels, whereas a distribution channel is uniquely assigned to a sales organisation.

- Use 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.

NSU has 3 major types of employee (faculty, secretary and OSS) with their specific role. Each faculty has many research areas and they work on monthly salary basis. Secretary also works on monthly salary basis but they have an option for overtime. Security guard salary is calculated by the number of hours they worked in a month. At the end of each month, employees are paid form the NSU account.

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_forward
