IS361 Database Management Concepts

Data base project



PROJECT

Please read the high-level requirements for each problem carefully. Develop a Design Document for each
problem containing at minimum the following:
? Conceptual/Logical design represented by an ERD using one of the modeling notations in
Appendix A of the textbook, preferably Visio Professional 2010. All many-to-many relationships
must be eliminated. Must show all entities, attributes, types, constraints (PK, not null),
relationships (PK/FK), relationship names, and cardinalities. (210 Points)
? List of all assumptions you have made during the design process. (10 Points)
? Physical design of the database from the ERD preferably using DDLs within either Microsoft SQL
Server or Oracle environment. (70 Points)
? List of potential applications, reports, and queries that will use the database. (5 Points)
? List of potential solutions for Hardware, O/S, Software and Networking. (5 Points)
You will be graded based on accuracy, consistency, thoroughness, presentation and the overall quality of
your design document. Keep in mind you are a highly paid Information Technology professional.
You must place your final design document in the designated dropbox on www.parkonline.org Course Site
by the above due date. Any late submissions will not be graded and will earn zero points.

PROBLEM #1:

REQUIREMENTS: A database needs to be designed to keep track of the teams and games of a sports
league. A team has a number of players, not all of whom participate in each game. It is desired to keep
track of the players participating in each game for each team and the result of the game. You must choose
one sport (soccer, football, baseball, basketball, etc.).


PROBLEM #2:

REQUIREMENTS: Yotown Records has decided to store information about musicians who perform on
its albums (as well as other company data) in a database.
? Each musician that records at Yotown has an SSN, a name, an address, and a phone number. Poorly
paid musicians often share the same address, and no address has more than one phone.
? Each instrument that is used in songs recorded at Yotown has a name (i.e., guitar, synthesizer, flute)
and a musical key (i.e., C, B-flat, E-flat).
? Each album that is recorded on the Yotown label has a title, a copyright date, a format (i.e., CD, MC),
and an album identifier.
? Each song recorded at Yotown has a title and an author.
? Each musician may play several instruments, and a given instrument may be played by several
musicians.
? Each album has a number of songs on it, but no song may appear on more than one album.
? Each song is performed by one or more musicians, and a musician may perform a number of songs.
? Each album has exactly one musician who acts as its producer. A musician may produce several
albums, of course.
