- (1) Draw an ER Diagram for the scenario below Temporary Employment Corporation (TEC) places temporary workers in companies during peak periods. TEC's manager gives you the following description of the business: TEC has a file of candidates who are willing to work. • If the candidate has worked before that candidate has a specific job history. • Each candidate has several qualifications. TEC also has a list of companies that request temporaries. Each time a company requests a temporary employee, TEC makes an entry in the openings folder.

- Which of the following criteria would make an entity a weak entity? a.) If the primary key is not derived from the parent entity in the relationship b.) If the entity can exist without the entity with which it has a relationship c.) If the primary key of a related entity contains the primary key of the parent entity d.) If the entity has a primary key that is partially derived from the parent entityarrow_forwardConsider the following E-R Diagram: Site manages Staff works in has employs Branch Figure A The attributes of each entity are as follows: Staff Entity's attributes are Staff No, Fname, Lname and Extension No. Branch Entity's attributes are Name, Address, Telephone No. Site Entity's attributes are Site No, Address and Capacity. a) Eliminate each redundant relationship from the E-R Diagram above (Figure A) and justify your answer.

The first branch of HomeCinema was established in 1982 in Jeddah but the company has now grown and has many branches throughout the country. As HomeCinema has grown, so has the difficulties in managing the increasing amount of data used and generated by the company. To ensure the continued success of the company, the Director of HomeCinema has urgently requested that a database application be built to help solve the increasing problems of data management. The data held on a branch of HomeCinema is the branch address made up of street, city, state, and zip code, and the telephone numbers (maximum of 3 lines). Each branch is given a branch number, which is unique throughout the company. Each branch of HomeCinema has staff, which includes a Manager, one or more Supervisors, and a number of other…arrow_forward
