Assignment Summary:

The project specification details provided in this document and you must use only given specifications to come up with your solution. Make appropriate assumptions where ever required.

Please make sure that your group must meet your lecturer/tutor at least twice to update the progress of your assignment.

Background Information for Sample Database Project:

Australian Manufacturing Company (AMC) requires a database system to manage their stores, employees, products, suppliers, patrons and orders.

The following information has been gathered about current business activities of AMC.

• 
  

   AMC has many stores in different cities across Australia. Each store has unique store number and other details like name, contact details (phone number, email address and fax number) and location details (postal address composed of street number, suburb, state and postcode).

  
  


• 
  

   There are many departments within each store, for example, HR, accounts, finance and sales etc. each department is uniquely identified by department number. AMC also records department title, phone number and email address.

  
  


• 
  

   Each store has a number of employees. Each department is supervised by a department supervisor and each store is managed by a store manager who both are employees of AMC. Each department has a single supervisor only i.e. the department supervisor is also the supervisor for all the employees work within that department.

  
  


• 
  

   Each employee is referenced by unique employee number, name (first and last names),address, mobile number, email, TFN, salary and joining date. An employee’s salary isrecorded differently as per his or her employment type. Employees can be employed as fulltime or casual basis. For a fulltime staff, annual salary is recorded and hourly rate for a casual staff.

  
  


• 
  

   Each store creates payslips for all employees work in that store on a weekly basis. As a minimum payslip number, no of hours worked, employee detail, store detail and gross pay are recorded.

  
  


• 
  

   AMC sales different products like fashion, health, beauty, electronics etc. Each product is characterised by product number, name, brand, description and price.

  
  


• 
  

   Each product can be supplied by one or more supplier and each supplier can supply one or many products. AMC also keeps appropriate details of their suppliers.

  
  


• 
  

   Each store maintains an inventory of their products available for sale. The quantity of each product available in store and the quantity ordered are kept.

  
  


• 
  

   AMC patron visits the store and shops in the store. Each customer is characterised by customer number, name (first and last names), mobile number and address.

  
  


• 
  

   A patron may place orders. An order contains one or many products at a time. A store keeps track of order number, order date, product(s) ordered and quantity ordered for each product.

The proprietors of AMC have appointed your group as Database System Consultant to analyse, design and develop conceptual data model and physical database. They want a software/online application in future to be built on the database you design so that the operation of the AMC is greatly improved.

Your created models must accommodate the provided requirements. It is understandable that the provided information may not sufficient to create model that centralise all the data appropriately. You are free to make assumptions about their business activities if require. Make sure you record your assumptions.

System Requirements:

The system is a prototype system and as such is not a full production version. You will be required to enter a representative sample data into your tables in order to test the design and operation of your database.

Project Specification:
1. Part A: Entity Relationship Diagram (20 marks)

1.

2.

Your first task is to study the Case study requirements and gather as much knowledge to list all the main Entities and attributes.

Create an Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD) to help you decide on the relationships.

Your entity relation diagram that models your database design should:

1. 
   

   Include all entities, relationships (including names) and attributes.

   
   


2. 
   

   Identify primary andforeignkeys.

   
   


3. 
   

   Include cardinality/ multiplicity and show using crow’s feet or UML

   
   

   notation.

   
   


4. 
   

   Include participation (optional / mandatory) symbols if applicable.

   
   

The ERD should be created as part of a Microsoft Word document. Hand-drawn diagrams will not be accepted. It is recommended that you complete your ERD using Draw.io, Visio or trywww.gliffy.com(Search forERD gliffyto get started).

2. Part B: Normalisation (10 marks)

1. Normalise all entities and relationships in optimal normal form. Provide the normalised schema and discuss the level of normalisation achieved for each relation. You goal should be normalise all entities in 3NF. Provide the reasons for any relation that is not maintained in 3NF.

3. Part C: Relational schema and MySQL database (35 marks)

1.Create relational schema that matches ERD and normalised schemas you created in Part A and B. The schema should include suitable data validation, integrity and referential integrity constraints, for example, types and length of attributes, primary and foreign keys etc. Make sure you follow standards, naming conventions and notation.(10 Marks)

3|Page

2. 
   

   Using MySQL, you are required to develop a demonstration prototype system (database) that stores data for AMC stores, employees, products, suppliers, patrons and orders. Create a new database calledAMCDB. Create tables according to your relational schema created in step 1.(20 Marks)

   
   

   Follow a standard naming convention for table names and also field names. Avoid using spaces and any special characters in table and field names. Useunderscore_caseor usecamelCaseto separate parts of a name.

   
   

   You are required to be consistent in tables’ name, fields’ name, data types, fieldsize and key constraints with relational schema created in step 2.

   
   


3. 
   

   Add at least three records into each table.(5 Marks)

   
   

4. Part D: SQL (24 marks)

Use the AMCDB database that you created in MySQL to design and execute SQL queries that answer the following questions.

Number your answers to each question clearly. The answer to each question must be tabulated as shown in the example below and include the SQL statement and also the output that is produced when you execute the statement in your database. The output includes the records that are listed and also the message that appears when you run the SQL statement.

For example:

Question 1:

Do not use screen captures to display the SQL statement or the output.

You should right-click on the MySQL Command Prompt window; choose Mark and then press the [Enter] key to Copy and then Paste into your Word document that includes the answers to all questions.

Format and indent the clauses in your SQL statements for better readability and understanding as shown in the example above. Statements must be syntactically and semantically correct.

Format both the SQL and also the Output in Courier New 10 or 11 point.

Part E: Personal Report - Every group member needs to write this part individually and add to the documentation (4 marks)

1. Write a page to the AMC proprietors as a personal reflection that describes your experience building the database. You can discuss any challenges / difficulties that you experienced or solutions that you found. Comment on any limitations and / or strengths of your database design. Comment on whether your database meets all the system requirements as specified in Project Specification. Avoid making excuses or comments that reflect negativity. Include an acknowledgement of all students you have spoken to about the assignment.

Part F: Report Layout, SQL script and presentation (7 marks)

1. Deliverables for Parts A, B, C, D and E must be printed as a report with a cover sheet attached. See Administrative Details on page 10 for more details. Your report must include header and footer that include all the groupmembers’name and student number, unit name, assignment name, and page numbers. Your report must be checked for spelling and grammar. Your report must also be formatted so that it is well set out and easy to read.

6.

5|Page

personal reports for each group member, MYSQL backup script notepad file and

presentation).
b) The SQL that can be used to restore your database should also be uploaded to

Moodle. You can create the SQL for your database as follows:

Use themysqldumpcommand to create a text version of the database. Use mysqldump to create SQL file that contains a list of SQL statements which can be used to restore/recreate the original database.

The syntax is as follows:

$ mysqldump -u [uname] -p[pass] [dbname] > [backupfile.sql]

WHERE: [uname]

Your database username
The password for your database The name of your database

[pass]
[dbname]
[backupfile.sql] The filename for your database backup

You do not need to log on to MySQL. For example, from the DOS command prompt, the syntax is:

e:\xampp\mysql\bin>mysqldump -u root MyDB > e:\MyDB_bak.sql

This will create the SQL file that can be used to restore your database.

OR ---

You can save your script as you go to notepad.

You are also required to present your work in the class. The presentation can be around 5 to 10 minutes long.

Administrative Details:

Deadlines:There will be NO extensions except where Calendar rules apply. Deadlines must be met, unless an acceptable medical certificate covers25% or moreof the lead-time between the assignment and the deadline. Other absences must be accounted for by substantiating documentation, for example a police accident report or statutory declaration. Any assessment activities missed for medical (or other acceptable substantiated) reasons must be completed by a new deadline that will be assigned in negotiation with the lecturer.

The Penalty for Late Submission of assignments is 5% of the total marks for each day (or part thereof, including weekends) the assignment is late. For assignments received more than 7 days after the due date, the assignment will be assessed, but a zero mark will be awarded.

Electronic failure causing delay:In most work submissions you have afinaldeadline but it is recommended that you submit well before this time. Timely submission is your responsibility–last minute technical disaster will not be accepted as a reason for late submission. You are expected to have discipline in time management, to make back-ups, and always have the back-ups available for submission.

Your report is to be presented as a hard copy. All assessment activities that are handed in must be presented to aprofessional standardand must include:

1. 
   

   A hard copy to be submitted to the designated lecturer or nominated alternative by the due time and date. It must have a title page which includes thestudent’sname and ID number, title of assignment and a signed statement that the work is exclusively thestudent’sown work and that there has been no plagiarism or collusion.Reports without a coversheet will not be accepted.

   
   


2. 
   

   A footer to be shown oneverypage that includes students’name, ID number and page #.

   
   


3. 
   

   A soft copy of your report to be submitted on AIH Moodle. The same assignment deadlines apply to this submission format.

   
   

   E-mailing of your assignment will be accepted only after consultation with the tutor. If emailing, through arrangement with the tutor, send the document as an e-mail attachment in MS Word or PDF format. The subject line in the e-mail must include student name.When sending e-mails please request an automated receipt.Where there is doubt as to whether the assessment activity was submitted on time, no claims for timely submission will be accepted if there is no receipt.

   
   

Submissions not clearly identified with theauthor’sdetails as outlined in the points above will not be marked and may result in a 0 grade for that activity.

PLAGIARISM AND COLLUSIONAny submitted work that contains plagiarism or collusion will be reported to the appropriate authorities according to the University policy and will receive an automatic zero‘0’mark for the assignment.
