Logical Data Modeling offers business managers, analysts, and
students a clear, basic systematic guide to defining business
information structures in relational database terms. The approach,
based on Clive Finkelstein s business-side Information Engineering,
is hands-on, practical, and explicit in terminology and reasoning.
Filled with illustrations, examples, and exercises, Logical Data
Modeling makes its subject accessible to readers with only a
limited knowledge of database systems. The book covers all
essential topics thoroughly but succinctly: entities, associations,
attributes, keys and inheritance, valid and invalid structures, and
normalization. It also emphasizes communication with business and
database specialists, documentation, and the use of Visible
Systems' Visible Advantage enterprise modeling tool. The
application of design patterns to logical data modeling provides
practitioners with a practical tool for fast development. At the
end, a chapter covers the issues that arise when the logical data
model is translated into the design for a physical database."
