Study Notes
Conceptual Design and Database Model
- The purpose of the resulting conceptual design is to provide a high-level representation of the database that is independent of a specific database management system (DBMS).
- The focus of the next lecture is on logical database design, which involves translating the conceptual design into a format that can be implemented using a specific DBMS.
- The database design model mentioned in the text is the Entity-Relationship (ER) model, which is a conceptual representation of data entities and their relationships.
