  2. Hierarchical database model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchical_database_model

    A hierarchical database model is a data model in which the data is organized into a tree-like structure. The data are stored as records which is a collection of one or more fields . Each field contains a single value, and the collection of fields in a record defines its type .

  3. Loose coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loose_coupling

    The dependency cannot be substituted, or its "signature" changed, without requiring a change to the dependent class. Loose coupling occurs when the dependent class contains a pointer only to an interface, which can then be implemented by one or many concrete classes. This is known as dependency inversion. The dependent class's dependency is to ...

  4. Dependency inversion principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dependency_inversion_principle

    In object-oriented design, the dependency inversion principle is a specific methodology for loosely coupled software modules.When following this principle, the conventional dependency relationships established from high-level, policy-setting modules to low-level, dependency modules are reversed, thus rendering high-level modules independent of the low-level module implementation details.

  5. Configuration management database - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Configuration_management...

    This database acts as a data warehouse for the organization and also stores information regarding the relationships among its assets. [2] The CMDB provides a means of understanding the organization's critical assets and their relationships, such as information systems, upstream sources or dependencies of assets, and the downstream targets of ...

  6. Data dependency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_dependency

    A data dependency in computer science is a situation in which a program statement (instruction) refers to the data of a preceding statement. In compiler theory , the technique used to discover data dependencies among statements (or instructions) is called dependence analysis .

  7. Transitive dependency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transitive_dependency

    E.g. a call to a log() function may induce a transitive dependency to a library that manages the I/O of writing a message to a log file. Dependencies and transitive dependencies can be resolved at different times, depending on how the computer program is assembled and/or executed: e.g. a compiler can have a link phase where the dependencies are ...

  8. Entity–relationship model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entity–relationship_model

    One or more physical ER models may be developed from each logical ER model. The physical ER model is normally developed to be instantiated as a database. Therefore, each physical ER model must contain enough detail to produce a database and each physical ER model is technology dependent since each database management system is somewhat different.

  9. Database normalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_normalization

    Database normalization is the process of structuring a relational database in accordance with a series of so-called normal forms in order to reduce data redundancy and improve data integrity. It was first proposed by British computer scientist Edgar F. Codd as part of his relational model .
