  2. Entity–relationship model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entity–relationship_model

    Diagrams created to represent attributes as well as entities and relationships may be called entity-attribute-relationship diagrams, rather than entity–relationship models. An ER model is typically implemented as a database. In a simple relational database implementation, each row of a table represents one instance of an entity type, and each ...

  3. Database design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_design

    A sample entity–relationship diagram. One of the most common types of conceptual schemas is the ER (entity–relationship model) diagrams. Attributes in ER diagrams are usually modeled as an oval with the name of the attribute, linked to the entity or relationship that contains the attribute.

  4. Database schema - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_schema

    The database schema is the structure of a database described in a formal language supported typically by a relational database management system (RDBMS). The term " schema " refers to the organization of data as a blueprint of how the database is constructed (divided into database tables in the case of relational databases ).

  5. Enhanced entity–relationship model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enhanced_entity...

    The enhanced entity–relationship (EER) model (or extended entity–relationship model) in computer science is a high-level or conceptual data model incorporating extensions to the original entity–relationship (ER) model, used in the design of databases.

  6. Database model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_model

    A relational database contains multiple tables, each similar to the one in the "flat" database model. One of the strengths of the relational model is that, in principle, any value occurring in two different records (belonging to the same table or to different tables), implies a relationship among those two records.

  7. IDEF1X - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDEF1X

    A relationship in which an instance of either entity can be related to any number of instances of the other. View levels Three levels of view are defined in IDEF1X: entity relationship (ER), key-based (KB), and fully attributed (FA). They differ in level of abstraction. The ER level is the most abstract.

  8. Cardinality (data modeling) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardinality_(data_modeling)

    The entity–relationship model proposes a technique that produces entity–relationship diagrams (ERDs), which can be employed to capture information about data model entity types, relationships and cardinality. A Crow's foot shows a one-to-many relationship. Alternatively a single line represents a one-to-one relationship. [4]

  9. Associative entity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_entity

    An associative entity is a term used in relational and entity–relationship theory. A relational database requires the implementation of a base relation (or base table) to resolve many-to-many relationships. A base relation representing this kind of entity is called, informally, an associative table. An associative entity (using Chen notation)
