Overview * Purpose Translate the logical description of data into the technical specifications of storing and retrieving data. * Goal Create a design for storing data that will provide adequate performance and ensure database integrity‚ security and recoverability. Basically‚ the primary goal of physical database design is data processing efficiency. * Physical Design Process Inputs such as normalized relations and estimation of their volume; definitions of each attributes; expectations

The Physical Data Model (PDM) describes how the information represented in the Logical Data Model is actually implemented‚ how the information-exchange requirements are implemented‚ and how the data entities and their relationships are maintained. There should be a mapping from a given Logical Data Model to the Physical Data Model if both models are used. The form of the Physical Data Model can vary greatly‚ as shown in Figure 31. For some purposes‚ an additional entity-relationship style diagram

Abstract Database Systems has a practical‚ hands-on approach that makes it uniquely suited to providing a strong foundation in good database design practice. Database design is more art than science. While it’s true that a properly designed database should follow the normal forms and the relational model‚ you still have to come up with a design that reflects the business you are trying to model. This paper shows describes design process of database project. The importance of Completing the Design Process

The Difference Between Art and Design. The subject of what separates art and design is convoluted and has been debated for a long time. Artists and designers both create visual compositions using a shared knowledge base‚ but their reasons for doing so are entirely different. Some designers consider themselves artists‚ but few artists consider themselves designers. So what exactly is the difference between art and design? In this post‚ we’ll examine and compare some of the core principles of each

Database Design Paper “A database is a structured collection of records or data that is stored in a computer system. In order for a database to be truly functional‚ it must not only store large amounts of records well‚ but be accessed easily. In addition‚ new information and changes should also be fairly easy to input.” (tech-faq.com); to ensure usefulness over the long-term‚ databases should be built with high data integrity and the ability to recover data if the hardware fails.

A designer’s sequence of activities is called a design process. The scientific study of design is called design science
