Lab Exercise in Problem Solving and Computing: Database Design using MS Access, Fall 2000, Lab Reports of Computer Science

A lab exercise for a university course in problem solving and computing, focusing on database design using ms access. Students are required to complete session 3.1 of the access textbook and design a small database with at least 5 tables, over 10 attributes, and over 25 records. The database should be normalized and free of redundancy, with one composite entity and referential integrity enforced. Students must submit the modified restaurant database, erd and bubble diagrams.

22C:005 Problem Solving and Computing, Fall 2000
Lab 11:
Due date: Tuesday, November 28th, at lab.
You are encouraged to work this assignment in groups of no more than two
students.
PART I: MS Access
Materials needed: 3 1/2 floppy diskette.
Download the file Restaurant.mdb to your diskette.
You are required to do Session 3.1, (pages AC 3.01 to AC 3.19) of Tutorial 3
from the Access textbook.
PART II: Database Design and Implementation
Design a small database, that holds some data of your choice, then implement it
using MS Access.
Requirements for your database:
Have at least 5 tables.
The total number of attributes for all tables should be greater than 10.
The total number of records for all tables should be greater than 25.
One of the tables should be a composite entity.
There should be no redundancy in your data.
Database should be normalized: eliminate repeating groups, partial
dependencies and transitive dependencies.
Have MS Access enforce referential integrity an all relationships.
To hand in:
A diskette containing the modified Restaurant database and your newly
designed database.
ERD and bubble diagramas corresponding to your normalized database. Draw
these diagrams by hand, in a sheet of paper.
