    Assignment # 2

    Course Code: IS2511

    Problem Statement
    Chapter 4: Exercise 4.27 (page 143)
    Consider the following EER diagram that describes the computer systems at a company.
    Provide your own attributes and key for each entity type. Supply max cardinality constraints
    justifying your choice. Write a complete narrative description of what this EER diagram
    represents.

    Consider a GRADE_BOOK database in which instructors within an academic department


    record points earned by individual students in their classes. The data requirements are
    summarized as follows:
    1. Each student is identified by a unique identifier, first and last name, and an e-mail
    address.
    2. Each instructor teaches certain courses each term. Each course is identified by a course
    number, a section number, and the term in which it is taught. For each course he or she
    teaches, the instructor specifies the minimum number of points required in order to
    earn letter grades A, B, C, D, and F. For example, 90 points for an A, 80 points for a B,
    70 points for a C, and so forth.
    3. Students are enrolled in each course taught by the instructor.
    4. Each course has a number of grading components (such as midterm exam, final exam,
    project, and so forth). Each grading component has a maximum number of points (such
    as 100 or 50) and a weight (such as 20% or 10%). The weights of all the grading
    components of a course usually total 100.
    5. Finally, the instructor records the points earned by each student in each of the grading
    components in each of the courses. For example, student 1234 earns 84 points for the
    midterm exam grading component of the section 2 course CSc2310 in the fall term of
    2009. The midterm exam grading component may have been defined to have a
    maximum of 100 points and a weight of 20% of the course grade.
    Design an enhanced entity–relationship diagram for the grade book database and build the
    design using a data modeling tool such as ERwin or Rational Rose.
