Design a database for an automobile company to provide to its dealers to assistthem in maintaining customer records and dealer inventory and to assist salesstaff in ordering cars. Each vehicle is identified by a vehicle identification number (VIN). Each individualvehicle is a particular model of a particular brand offered by the company(e.g., the XF is a model of the car brand Jaguar of Tata Motors). Each modelcan be offered with a variety of options, but an individual car may have onlysome (or none) of the available options. The database needs to store informationabout models, brands, and options, as well as information about individualdealers, customers, and cars.Your design should include an E-R diagram, a set of relational schemas, anda list of constraints, including primary-key and foreign-key constraints.

A new sales ordering system needs a relational database that contains a customer table, a product inventory table, and an order table. Use a word-processing, graphics, or spread-sheet program to draw an entity-relationship diagram showing the relationships among these entities. Next, design each of these tables showing the keys and attributes to be included in each table. Include five sample records for each table.
An E-learning website needs your help to design its database. They need to store information about teachers and online tutorials. Each teacher has a unique ID, name, and at least one field of specialty. Teachers form groups to prepare online tutorials. Each group has unique name and at least one teacher as a member. Each online tutorial has a title, date and organized by exactly one group. The title of the tutorial is unique for the group. Each tutorial consists of several sessions, described by their titles and durations. Naturally, each session is presented by one teacher and belongs to exactly one tutorial. In addition, sessions on the same tutorial have different titles. Design an ERD for this application. Note any unspecified requirements, and make appropriate assumptions to make the specification complete.
A university wants to develop a database system to manage student enrollment and course registration. They need an ERD to represent the key entities and their relationships. Entities: Student: Each student has a unique student ID, a name, a date of birth, and an email address. Course: Each course has a unique course code, a title, a description, and the number of credits. Enrollment: Each enrollment represents a student's registration in a specific course for a particular semester. It includes information about the grade received for that course. Professor: Each professor has a unique professor ID, a name, and an email address. Professors teach one or more courses. Create an ERD that represents the relationships between these entities. Include Entity name, attributes, identify Primary and Foreign key and crow foot relationships.
Specification Suppose you are asked to design a club database system based on the _following information. Each student has a unique student id, a name, and an email; each club has a unique club id, a name, a contact telephone number, and has exactly one student as its president. Each student can serve as a president in at most one of the clubs, although he/she can be the members several clubs. Clubs organize activities and students can participate in any of them. Each activity is described by a unique activity id, a place, a date, a time and those clubs that organize it. If an activity is organized by more than one club, different clubs might contribute different activity fees. Question Draw an E-R diagram for the system according to the above description.

A university wants to set up a database to record details about its staff, the departments they belong to and the training they attended. The purpose of developing the database is keep the staff information such as staff identity number, staff name, staff address, staff telephone number, staff job title and staff salary. As for the staff telephone number, the database allows keeping more than one of the staff telephone numbers. For the department information, the database keeps the name of the department and its location. It is required that every staff belongs to at least one department. Also, it is required that each department has exactly one staff to lead the department. To improve staff self-development, the university encourages every staff to attend courses. Hence, the database keeps the course information such as the course name, course duration, and course cost. Each staff is required to attend at least one course. For one course, the university can approve a number of staff…
Draw the ER diagram based on the following specification. A tutorial school is using a database to manage information about teachers, courses, and students. Each teacher is identified by staff_id, has a name, an email address, and a phone number. Each student is identified by student_id, has a name, an email address, and a registration date. Each course is identified by course_id, year, and semester. In addition, each course has a name. Each course is associated with multiple lessons. A lesson has a lesson number, a location, a date, a start-time, and an end-time. Lesson numbers are sequentially numbers, starting from 1, generated separately for each course. Each teacher teaches at least one course. Each student takes at least one course. Each course is taught by one teacher. Each course can be taken by many students.
Draw an E-R diagram for the description below. Suppose that you are asked to model a database including all pharmaceutical companies, their drugs, and all pharmacies. Each pharmaceutical company is identified by its name and has a phone number. For each drug, the trade name (e.g., Acetaminophen) and formula must be recorded. Each drug is sold by only one pharmaceutical company, and the trade name identifies a drug uniquely from among the products of that company. If a pharmaceutical company stops production, we do not need to keep track of its products any longer. Each pharmacy has an identifier name, address, and phone number. Each pharmacy sells several drugs. A drug could be sold at several pharmacies, and the price could vary from one pharmacy to another.

Each department runs a number of courses. The university provides a set of modules used in different courses. Each course uses a number of modules but not every module is used. A course is assigned a unique course code and a module is identified by a unique module code. A module can be used in one course only, but can be studied by many students. In addition to the module code each module unique title, start date, end date, texts (books), and assessment scheme (i.e., coursework and exam marks percentages) are also stored. Each course is managed by a member of academic staff, and each module is coordinated by a member of academic staff also. The database should also store each course unique title, and duration (in years). A student can enroll in one course at a time. Once enrolled a student is assigned a unique matriculation number. To complete a course, each student must undertake and pass all the required modules in his/her course. This requires that the database store the…
