Write the business rules that are reflected in the ERD shown in Figure P2.15. (Note that the ERD reflects some simplifying assumptions. For example, each book is written by only one author.

Draw the EER diagrams for the following problems using UML notation, Crow’s Foot notation and Chen notation: A large organization has several parking lots, which are used by staff. Each parking lot has a unique name, location, capacity, and number of floors. Each parking lot has parking spaces, which are uniquely identified using a space number.  Members of staff can request the use of a parking space. Each member of staff has a unique number, name, telephone extension number, and vehicle registration number. The majority parking spaces are under cover and can be allocated for use by a member of staff for a monthly rate.  Parking spaces that are not under cover are free to use when available. Up to twenty covered parking spaces are available for use by visitors to the company. However, only members of staff are able to book out a space for the day of the visit. There is no charge for this type of booking, but the member of staff must provide the visitor’s vehicle license number.
