Database modelling:

  1. is achieved using an information flow digram

  2. uses a dataflow diagram

  3. is necessary to remove database anomalies through normalization

  4. is the same as process modelling

  5. is all of the above


Correct Option: C

Conceptual data modeling is typically done in parallel with other requirements analysis and structuring steps during:

  1. system planning and selection

  2. systems design

  3. systems analysis

  4. systems implementation and operation

  5. systems evaluation


Correct Option: C

The data modeling perspective that derives the business rules for a data model from an intimate understanding of the nature of the business, rather than from any specific information requirements in screens, reports, or business forms, is referred to as the:

  1. top-down approach

  2. bottom-up approach

  3. overview approach

  4. business approach

  5. conceptual approach


Correct Option: A

AI Explanation

To answer this question, we need to understand the different data modeling perspectives and how they relate to deriving business rules for a data model.

Option A) top-down approach - This option is correct because the top-down approach in data modeling involves starting with a high-level understanding of the business and then gradually refining the model by adding more details. In this approach, the business rules are derived from an intimate understanding of the nature of the business, rather than from specific information requirements in screens, reports, or business forms. Therefore, Option A is the correct answer.

Option B) bottom-up approach - This option is incorrect because the bottom-up approach in data modeling involves starting with specific information requirements, often derived from screens, reports, or business forms, and then building the data model from there. Business rules in this approach are derived based on the specific requirements identified. Therefore, Option B is incorrect.

Option C) overview approach - This option is incorrect because there is no specific data modeling perspective referred to as the "overview approach." This is not a commonly used term in data modeling. Therefore, Option C is incorrect.

Option D) business approach - This option is incorrect because the term "business approach" is not commonly used to describe a specific data modeling perspective. It is a broad term that can encompass various approaches or methodologies used in data modeling. Therefore, Option D is incorrect.

Option E) conceptual approach - This option is incorrect because the conceptual approach in data modeling refers to creating a high-level, abstract representation of the data model. It focuses on the concepts and relationships between them, rather than the detailed business rules. Therefore, Option E is incorrect.

The correct answer is Option A) top-down approach. This option is correct because it aligns with the perspective of deriving business rules for a data model from an intimate understanding of the nature of the business, rather than from specific information requirements in screens, reports, or business forms.

A detailed, logical, and graphical representation of the entities, associations, and data elements for an organization or business area best describes a(n):

  1. logical model

  2. data flow diagram

  3. entity-relationship diagram

  4. data tree


Correct Option: C

Which of the following is not a data modeling tool?

  1. Visio

  2. ERwin

  3. ER/Studio

  4. Data Builder

  5. empowER


Correct Option: D

What is the goal of Data Architecture

  1. Design logical data systems

  2. Design physical storage system

  3. Define data entities relevant to the enterprise

  4. All of the above


Correct Option: C

Data architecture document dos not include:

  1. Business Data Model

  2. Logical Data Model

  3. Data Management Process Model

  4. Data entity/business function Matrix

  5. Data Interface requirements


Correct Option: E
  1. The relationship between more than one entity which has more than one attribute

  2. An attribute that cannot easily identify a record, but can easily viewed as a field

  3. An attribute, other than primary key, that can be used to identify an instance of an entity

  4. A non-distinguishable primary key which is not used to identify fields or records

  5. A primary key with two or more columns on a non-clustered index


Correct Option: C

A company has a model consisting of eight entities. The parent entity, "Company," has three child entities: "Employee," "Product," and "Order." The Product entity has a categorization of four entities: "Computer," "Software," "Accessory," and "Clearance." Each entity has only one attribute making up the key attribute. Based on the scenario above, what foreign key appears in the model exactly three times ?

  1. computer_id

  2. product_id

  3. company_id

  4. employee_id

  5. order_id


Correct Option: C

Which one of the following is NOT a characteristic of metadata?

  1. Data about data

  2. Describe a data dictionary

  3. Self-describing

  4. Includes user data

  5. Supports its own structure


Correct Option: D

AI Explanation

To answer this question, you need to understand the concept of metadata. Metadata refers to data about data and provides information about the characteristics and properties of the data. Let's go through each option to understand why it is correct or incorrect:

Option A) Data about data - This option is correct because it accurately describes the concept of metadata.

Option B) Describe a data dictionary - This option is correct because a data dictionary is a type of metadata that provides descriptions and definitions of data elements.

Option C) Self-describing - This option is correct because metadata is designed to be self-describing, meaning it provides information about the structure, format, and organization of the data.

Option D) Includes user data - This option is incorrect because user data is not a characteristic of metadata. Metadata focuses on providing information about the data itself, rather than including user-specific data.

Option E) Supports its own structure - This option is correct because metadata often has its own structure and organization to ensure that it can effectively describe and represent the data it refers to.

The correct answer is Option D. This option is incorrect because including user data is not a characteristic of metadata. Metadata focuses on providing information about the data, rather than including specific user-related information.

What can a mandatory one to one relationship indicate?

  1. More entities are needed

  2. The model should be denormolized

  3. The tables are not properly indexed

  4. The model cannot be implemented physically

  5. More attributes are needed


Correct Option: E
  1. A diagram showing the domains of all attributes in the data model

  2. A schedule of data modeling steps

  3. A plan of action for database design

  4. A diagram showing the flow of data in an application

  5. A graphical or language representation of a data model or database


Correct Option: E
