2. Entity–relationship model - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entity–relationship_model

   For example, a particular song is an entity, the collection of all songs in a database is an entity set, the eaten relationship between a child and his lunch is a single relationship, and the set of all such child-lunch relationships in a database is a relationship set.

3. One-to-many (data model) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-to-many_(data_model)

   In systems analysis, a one-to-many relationship is a type of cardinality that refers to the relationship between two entities (see also entity–relationship model). For example, take a car and an owner of the car. The car can only be owned by one owner at a time or not owned at all, and an owner could own zero, one, or multiple cars.

4. Many-to-many (data model) - Wikipedia

   For example, think of A as Authors, and B as Books. An Author can write several Books, and a Book can be written by several Authors. In a relational database management system, such relationships are usually implemented by means of an associative table (also known as join table, junction table or cross-reference table), say, AB with two one-to-many relationships A → AB and B → AB.

5. 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]

6. 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)

7. Data model - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_model

   For example, a data modeler may use a data modeling tool to create an entity–relationship model of the corporate data repository of some business enterprise. This model is transformed into a relational model , which in turn generates a relational database .

8. Database model - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_model

   The columns enumerate the various attributes of the entity (the employee's name, address or phone number, for example), and a row is an actual instance of the entity (a specific employee) that is represented by the relation. As a result, each tuple of the employee table represents various attributes of a single employee.

9. IDEF1X - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDEF1X

   Each instance of the category entity is simultaneously an instance of the generic entity. Non-specific relationships 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).
