Implementing a database system for an organization- Computer Science
This project involves designing and implementing a database system for an organization. The term project is made up of a series of four deliverables, each building towards the finished product. The project requires building a database application for a real-world scenario of your choosing. Some examples include: books, movies, music, computer games, geographical locations, genomic sequences, white water rafting resources, flights, etc. Note that you cannot choose the University database that is used in the text book nor the Customer-Invoice schema that is used in assignment 3. Try to pick an application that is relatively substantial, but not too big. For example, you might want your design to have in the range of 5 to 8 or so entities. You will design schemas for the database, and you will create an actual database using the MySQL relational Database Management System. You will populate the database with sample data, write interactive queries and
modifications on the database, and develop user-friendly tools for manipulating the database.
Step 1: What to submit?
You are required to submit a one-page project description of your application. This is an initial, but reasonably well-thought out, one-page description of the database application you propose to work with throughout the course. Note that you cannot choose the University database that is used in the text book nor the Customer Invoice schema that is used in assignment 3. You may state any assumptions you would like to make. Make sure your submission includes the following:
1- One paragraph description of your application. Little bit of explanation
2- An initial list of tables (at least 5 tables) that will be used in order to represent your application.
3- For each table, propose an initial set of attributes (or fields).
4- The explanation of at least 5 scenarios for queries that need to be answered using your database.
