Associated With It Zero To Any Number of Recorded Accidents

1) The document provides 7 problems to design ER diagrams for different scenarios including: a car insurance company, a hospital, a university registrar's office, tracking student exam marks, sports team matches, extending it to multiple teams, and scheduling university final exams. 2) For each problem, entities, attributes, and relationships are identified and an ER diagram is to be constructed. 3) The document is intended as a tutorial sheet for an ER diagram course, prepared by a professor.

Database Management System 1 (NCS-502)

TUTORIAL SHEET - 1 (ER DIAGRAM)

Construct an E-R diagram for the following problems:


1) A car-insurance company whose customers own one or more cars each. Each car has
associated with it zero to any number of recorded accidents.

2) A hospital with a set of patients and a set of medical doctors. Associate with each patient a
log of the various tests and examinations conducted.

Database Management System 2 (NCS-502)

3) A university registrar’s office maintains data about the following entities: (a) courses,
including number, title, credits, syllabus, and prerequisites; (b) course offerings, including
course number, year, semester, section number, instructor(s), timings, and classroom; (c)
students, including student-id, name, and program; and (d) instructors, including
identification number, name, department, and title. Further, the enrollment of students in
courses and grades awarded to students in each course they are enrolled for must be
appropriately modeled.

4) Consider a database used to record the marks that students get in different exams of
different course offerings.
a. Construct an E-R diagram that models exams as entities, and uses a ternary
relationship, for the above database.

Database Management System 3 (NCS-502)

b. Construct an alternative E-R diagram that uses only a binary relationship between
students and course-offerings. Make sure that only one relationship exists between
a particular student and course-offering pair, yet you can represent the marks that a
student gets in different exams of a course offering.

5) Design an E-R diagram for keeping track of the exploits of your favourite sports team. You
should store the matches played, the scores in each match, the players in each match and
individual player statistics for each match. Summary statistics should be modeled as
derived attributes

Database Management System 4 (NCS-502)

6) Extend the E-R diagram of the previous question to track the same information for all teams
in a league.

7) Consider a university database for the scheduling of classrooms for final exams. This
database could be modeled as the single entity set exam, with attributes course-name,
section-number, room-number, and time. Alternatively, one or more additional entity sets
could be defined, along with relationship sets to replace some of the attributes of the exam
entity set, as
a. course with attributes name, department, and c-number
b. section with attributes s-number and enrollment, and dependent as a weak entity set
on course
c. room with attributes r-number, capacity, and building
Show an E-R diagram illustrating the use of all three additional entity sets listed.
