SmartProjects Company is planning to design a data model to hold information relating to their projects, employees working on company projects, and their customers. SmartProjects  IT Manager provided the following business rules to the software developer:

Complete the information-level design for the database that satisfies the above constraints and user view requirements. In order to complete this information-level design you are required to answer the questions given below

User view 1 requirement: Each employee has a unique ID number, and their first name, last name, date of birth, address, contactNo user name and password must be recorded. There is a need to keep track of the dependents of each employee for insurance purposes.

User view 2 requirements:  Each customer has a unique customer_number and their first name, last name, address, PNum, project tile and payment must be recorded.

User view 3 requirements: Each project has a project number that uniquely identifies the project (PNum) and project title, StartDate, managerID, managerName,managerContactNo must be recorded.

User view 4 requirements: An employee can work on only one project. A project can have one or more employees associated with it.

User view 5 requirements:  Each department has a unique ID number and name.   A department can have many employees. An employee can only work in one department. A department controls a number of projects.

User view 6 requirements: One project may belong to several departments. One customer can submit only one project at one timAe.

A. Determine the functional dependences.

E.g., CustomerID à name, address, ......

B. Then normalise these tables. Make the normalization to 3NF. State for every step in the

Explanation / Answer

1
EMPLOYEE:
empid -> fname, lname, dob, address, contact, username, password, PNum, project_title, dept_id

CUSTOMER:
customer_number -> fname, lname, address, PNum, payment

PROJECT:
PNum -> project_title, StartDate, managerID, managerName, managerContactNo, dept_id(multivalued)

DEPARTMENT
dept_id -> dept_name, PNum (multivalued)

2.
First convert it into 1NF (multivalues items removed)

EMPLOYEE:
empid -> fname, lname, dob, address, contact, username, password, PNum, project_title, dept_id

CUSTOMER:
customer_number -> fname, lname, address, PNum, payment

PROJECT:
PNum -> project_title, StartDate, managerID, managerName, managerContactNo

DEPARTMENT
dept_id -> dept_name

ASSOCIATION
dept_id <-> PNum

then convert it into 2NF (revome partial dependency)

EMPLOYEE:
empid -> fname, lname, dob, address, contact, username, password, PNum, project_title, dept_id

CUSTOMER:
customer_number -> fname, lname, address, PNum, payment

PROJECT:
PNum -> project_title, StartDate, managerID, managerName, managerContactNo

DEPARTMENT
dept_id -> dept_name

ASSOCIATION
dept_id <-> PNum

Finnaly we convert it to 3NF (remove transitive dependencies)

EMPLOYEE:
empid -> fname, lname, dob, address, contact, username, password, PNum, dept_id

CUSTOMER:
customer_number -> fname, lname, address, PNum, payment

PROJECT:
PNum -> project_title, StartDate, managerID
(ManagerID is foreign key reffereing empid)

DEPARTMENT
dept_id -> dept_name

ASSOCIATION
dept_id -> PNum
