Semistructured Database Design provides an essential reference for anyone interested in the effective management of semsistructured data. Since many new and advanced web applications consume a huge amount of such data, there is a growing need to properly design efficient databases. This volume responds to that need by describing a semantically rich data model for semistructured data, called Object-Relationship-Attribute model for Semistructured data (ORA-SS). Focusing on this new model, the book... |

Database Design Using Entity-Relationship Diagrams clarifies ER diagram design by defining it in terms of requirements (end user requests) and specifications (designer feedback to that request). The book emphasizes how communication between designers and users during design is crucial for the elicitation of targeted data, and for the creation of an understandable ER diagram. The authors describe how to develop an ER diagram, how to map it to a database, and how the resulting database can be test... |
