ASSIGNMENT

Use an example to explain the difference between a logical process models

and physical process models.

Logical model portrays your model elements and how they identify with one another. A
physical model depicts every entity in point of interest, including data about how you would
actualize the model utilizing a specific item. In a logical model portraying a man in a family
tree, every individual node would have attributes, for example, name, date of birth, spot of
birth, and so forth. The logical chart would likewise demonstrate unique attribute or blend of
attributes called a primary key that depicts precisely one section inside of this entity. The
physical model for the person would contain implementation details. These details are things
like data types, indexes, constraints, etc. The physical model for the individual would contain
usage subtle elements. These points of interest are things like data types, indexes, constraints
and so forth.

A wealthy businessman owns a large number of paintings that he loans to

museums all over the world. He is interested in setting up a system that
records what he loans to whom so that he does not lose track of his
investments. He would like to keep information about the paintings that he
owns as well as the artists who painted them. He also wants to track the
various museums that reserve his art, along with the actual reservations.
Obviously, artists are associated with paintings, paintings are associated with
reservations, and reservations are associated with museums.

a. Which four entities would belong on this data model?

An Entity can be any article, place, individual or class. In E-R Diagram, an entity is spoken to
utilizing rectangles. Consider a sample of an association. Worker, chief, division, item and
numerous more can be taken as elements from an association.
4 entities are:
1)
2)
3)
4)

Artist
Paintings
Reservations
Museums

b. Which are some of the basic attributes for each entity?

Basic attributes for each of these four entities are:
1) Attributes of Artist
First_name
Last_name

Age
Phone_no
Number_of_paintings

2) Attributes of Paintings
Description
Price
Category
Artifact
Name
Year_completed
Year_acquired_by_museum
3) Attributes of Museums
Name
City
State
4) Attributes of Reservations
Start_date
End_date
Number
3. Describe how Joint Application Design (JAD) might be considered a better
information-gathering technique than the traditional method of requirements
gathering? What are its shortcomings?

Traditional methods in correlation with the JAD approach, is thought to prompt speedier
advancement times and more noteworthy customer fulfillment, on the grounds that the
customer is included all through the improvement process. In correlation, in the conventional
way to deal with system development, the designer researches the framework necessities and
adds to an application, with customer data comprising of a progression of meetings. A variety
on JAD, quick application improvement (RAD) makes an application all the more rapidly
through such systems as utilizing less formal procedures and reusing programming parts.
Shortcomings of JAD are

Associate may address the wrong difficulties of creating applications in light of the
fact that they went to the meeting ill-equipped.
The determination of individuals to take an interest in the gatherings may change or
inclination the outcomes compromising the process of application development.
