This should be written in a concise, formal business style using single spacing and font size 12. You are required to make use of headings, paragraphs and subsections as appropriate, and all work must be supported with research and referenced using the Harvard referencing system. Please also provide a bibliography using the Harvard referencing system. The recommended word limit is 2,000–2,500 words, although you will not be penalised for exceeding the total word limit. Part 2: The submission is in the form of a fully functional relational database system demonstrated to the Tutor; and an individual written report (please see details in Part 1 above). Part 3: The submission is in the form of a witness statement of the testing completed by the Tutor; technical documentation; and a written report (please see details in Part 1 above). Unit Learning Outcomes: LO1 Use an appropriate design tool to design a relational database system for a substantial problem. LO2 Develop a fully functional relational database system, based on an existing system design. LO3 Test the system against user and system requirements. LO4 Produce technical and user documentation. Assignment Brief and Guidance: *Please note that assignment guidance is for reference only and should be more specific in detail to meet customized needs.

above scenario. b. Identify entities and attributes of the given scenario and design a relational database system using conceptual design (ER Model) by including identifiers (primary Key) of entities and cardinalities, participations of relationships. c. Convert the ER Model into logical database design using relational database model including primary keys foreign keys and referential Integrities. It should contain at least five interrelated tables. Note: -It is allowed to have your own assumptions and related attributes within the scope of the case study given. Task 1. (M1) Produce a comprehensive design for a fully functional system, which includes interface and output designs, data validations and data normalisation. a. Explain data normalization with examples. Check whether the provided logical design in task 1.1 is normalised. If not, normalize the database by removing the anomalies. b. Design set of simple interfaces to input and output for the above scenario using Wireframe or any interface-designing tool. c. Explain the validation mechanisms to validate data in the tables with examples. Task 1. (D1) Assess the effectiveness of the design in relation to user and system requirements a. Check whether the given design (ERD and Logical design) is representing the identified user and system requirements to access the effectiveness of the design. Task 2 - LO2 Develop a fully functional relational database system, based on an existing system design Task 2. (P2) Develop the database system with evidence of user interface, output and 10 | P a g e
data validations, and querying across multiple tables. a. Develop a relational database system according to the ER diagram you have created (Use SQL DDL statements). b. Implement the validation methods explained in task 1.2-part c. c. Display the details payment with the job details and the customer details using Join queries Task 2. (P3) Implement a query language into the relational database system a. Explain the usage of DML with below mentioned queries by giving at least one single example per each case from the developed database. Select Update Delete Note: - The queries you have selected should be meaningful and relevant to the given scenario. Task 2. (M2) Implement a fully functional database system, which includes system security and database maintenance. a. Explain how security mechanisms have been used and the importance of these mechanisms for the security of the database. Implement proper security mechanisms (EX: -User groups, access permissions) in the developed database. Task 2. (M3) Assess whether meaningful data has been extracted using query tools to produce appropriate management information. a. Explain the usage of the below SQL statements with the examples from the developed database Group by Order by 11 | P a g e
Task 4. (M5) Produce technical and user documentation for a fully functional system, including diagrams showing movement of data through the system, and flowcharts describing how the system works. a. Your technical documentation should include some of the UML diagrams (Use case diagram Class diagram, etc.), flow charts for the important functionalities, context level DFD and the Level 1 DFD Task 4. (D3) Assess any future improvements that may be required to ensure the continued effectiveness of the database system. a. Suggest the future improvements that may be required to ensure the continued effectiveness of the database system. 13 | P a g e

Task 1 – (LO1) Use an appropriate design tool to design a relational database system for a substantial problem Task 1. b. Identify the user and system requirements to design a database for the above scenario. Introduction about requirement Functional requirements describe a list of functions that the system must accomplish. Non- functional requirements describe other constraints such as performance expectations or standards to be used. The discussion centres on functional requirements. Knowing what is to be built is one of the most important aspects of a software development process. Getting the requirements in line with what the actual user need is also a very important aspect. 19 | P a g e
