• Cardinalities
• Cardinality - The number of instances of entity B that can be associated with each instance of entity A.
– Minimum Cardinality or Modality - The minimum number of instances of entity B that may be associated with each instance of entity A.
– Maximum Cardinality - The maximum number of instances of entity B that may be associated with each instance of entity A

Relationships
• A one-to-one relationship (1:1) exists when the maximum cardinality for each entity in the relationship is 1.
• A one-to-many (1:N) relationship exists when the maximum cardinality on one side is 1 and the maximum on the other side is many.
• A many-to-many (M:N) relationship exists when the maximum on both sides is many.

• Like constructing DFDs and data dictionaries, the construction of ERDs is an iterative and evolutionary process that requires refinement as a better understanding of the system to be developed is achieved.
1. Identify entities – use DFDs to identify multiple instance entities.
2. Add attributes – requires detailed analysis and perhaps use of requirements gathering techniques.
3. Assign identifiers or Primary keys – Each entity type must have an attribute or set of attributes that distinguishes one instance from other instances of the same type.
4. Foreign Keys - The attributes of a foreign key in one entity are the attributes of a primary key in another entity.
5. Identify Relationships –

• Three Types of Relationships
– One-to-one relationships (1:1)
• Each store is managed by a single employee and each store manager (employee) only manages a single store.
– EMPLOYEE (1) manages STORE (1)
– One-to-many relationships (1:M)
• A painter paints many different paintings, but each one of them is painted by only that painter.
– PAINTER (1) paints PAINTING (M)
– Many-to-many relationships (M:N)
• An employee might learn many job skills, and each job skill might be learned by many employees.
– EMPLOYEE (M) learns SKILL (N)

• Implement One-to-One Relationships
– In a relational database, one-to-one relationships between entities can be implemented by merging the two tables/entities together.
• Implement One-to-Many Relationships
– Place the primary key of the entity that can occur only once as a foreign key in the entity that can occur many times.
• Implement Many-to-Many Relationships
– In a relational database, many-to-many relationships between entities can be implemented by creating a new entity that links the other two entities together. In most cases, the primary key of the new entity consists of the primary keys of the entities that it is relating together.
– Spit it into two one-to-many relationships!

• DFDs and ERDs are both used to model systems, but they show two very different perspectives on the system.
– Entities on an ERD often correspond to data stores on a DFD
– Attributes on an ERD usually correspond to data elements (listed in the data dictionary) that make up the data store and data flows on a DFD
– Relationships on an ERD do not correspond to processes on a DFD.
