how the treatment
and equipment is weak entity???
Posted by sopan | 30/01/2012, 08:02Both are weak entities as they don’t have primary key. We can convert treatment to strong entity by creating treatment ID as its primary key.
Posted by Abhijay Patne | 04/04/2012, 04:13enter the question for e-r diagram too plzzzzz……….
Posted by rahul kathuria | 08/02/2012, 18:52Just do a Google search.
Posted by Abhijay Patne | 04/05/2012, 17:58what does a triangle signify here? “is a” is in triangle
Posted by jahanvi | 23/02/2012, 03:48Triangle specifies concept of Generalization (bottom to top) or viceversa. For more details Google for “Is a ralationship in database”.
Posted by Abhijay Patne | 01/03/2012, 13:30the triangle is like a connector for example employee is a doctor or nurse they both are employee
Posted by srinithi | 25/01/2013, 10:26It will be right that The Hospital Management systems is very easy to maintain, cost-effective, scalable and get with well known price.
Posted by temmyliear | 01/03/2012, 05:28Yes.
Posted by Abhijay Patne | 01/03/2012, 13:28what are these double lines showing towards nurse??
Posted by shaize | 26/03/2012, 09:10Those double lines show that there is at least on nurse governing each room.

Posted by Abhijay Patne | 04/04/2012, 04:01Sorry double *ellipse
Posted by Naveen | 08/04/2012, 10:53Double ellipse in an E-R diagram represents multivalued attributes. As attributes info and contact no can have multiple values for a single entity, so is the ellipse. Hope this helped.
Posted by Abhijay Patne | 08/04/2012, 11:44good
Posted by desrftgyj | 16/04/2012, 03:27Thank you.
Posted by Abhijay Patne | 02/05/2012, 15:19What does double dotted ellipse and single dotted ellipse specify?
Posted by Rajan | 18/04/2012, 09:21Double dotted : Attribute can have multiple values.
Single Dotted : Derived attribute.
Posted by Abhijay Patne | 02/05/2012, 15:20are these relationships one to many or many to many how do we know it?
Posted by kuppxx | 01/05/2012, 10:59I have not specified whether relationships are one to many or many to one. You can show it with the help of appropriate directions.

Posted by Abhijay Patne | 04/05/2012, 17:52What is the difference between attributes ID and Record No.? Which have same values?
Posted by shobha | 03/05/2012, 08:29ID is an identification number generated for a particular patient whereas record no keeps track of records. Both are primary keys of Patient and record respectively.

Posted by Abhijay Patne | 03/08/2012, 13:30what are the segments of the diagram?
Posted by dooom | 22/07/2012, 21:44Relationships can be displayed as diamonds or can be simply line segments between two entities.

Posted by Abhijay Patne | 03/08/2012, 13:26i want d assumptions..plz…cn u help….
Posted by harshitha | 27/08/2012, 04:12Assumptions of what?
Posted by Abhijay Patne | 01/09/2012, 14:36what is ISA?
Posted by shalini singh | 07/09/2012, 14:12ISA is a keyword used to specify connection between Generalized Entities and Specialized Entities. In this case Employee is a generalized object whereas doctor is specialized entity hence doctor ISA employee.
Hope this helps.

Posted by Abhijay Patne | 24/09/2012, 09:16hey can u giv me the relation for the hospital mangement plss if u can
Posted by RUKHSHAR MANSURI | 07/10/2012, 00:27The ER diagram itself is self-explanatory. What else do you need?
Posted by Abhijay Patne | 19/10/2012, 11:34wat is the foreign key in the above diagram?
Posted by fasi | 13/10/2012, 16:15Foreign key is the attribute used in one entity, which is the primary key of other entity. In my case, I haven’t shown any foreign key.
Posted by Abhijay Patne | 19/10/2012, 11:33& wat will be the bottom up approach for this ER Diagram?
Posted by fasi | 13/10/2012, 16:41This ER diagram has been designed with bottom up approach. In Bottom up approach, you first design whole database schema, define hierarchy and relations between entities and when everything is finalized, you draw the diagram.
Posted by Abhijay Patne | 19/10/2012, 11:28thnx dude
Posted by fasi | 21/10/2012, 20:45what does it mean by ISA there?
Posted by nadia | 27/10/2012, 17:23ISA is a symbol specifying special category of a general type. eg. person ISA doctor. Hope this clears
