MANUAL ASSIGNMENT
Case Study: Real-Time Problem Identification and Solution Design

OBJECTIVE
The primary goal of this assignment is to enable students to:

1. Identify a real-world problem requiring a database solution.


2. Analyze, design, implement, and document a database system for the problem.
3. Develop a unique and original database project with 7 to 8 tables containing meaningful
data.

ASSIGNMENT PHASES AND GUIDELINES

PHASE 1: PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION

1. Select a real-time, unique problem from domains like:


o Library Management
o Hospital Management
o Event Management
o E-commerce Platform
o Hotel Booking System
o Inventory Management
o Any other real-world scenario.
2. Ensure the chosen problem is distinct and not repeated among students.
3. Document the functional requirements by interacting with domain users or analyzing
real-life use cases.

PHASE 2: PROBLEM ANALYSIS

1. Identify all data entities, attributes, and relationships required for the solution.
2. Create a comprehensive description of the system, defining constraints and expected
functionalities.

PHASE 3: SCHEMA DESIGN

1. Design an Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) to visually represent the database


structure.
2. Convert the ERD into a relational schema including:
o Primary Keys, Foreign Keys, Composite Keys, Candidate Keys, and Super
Keys.

PHASE 4: NORMALIZATION

1. Apply 1NF, 2NF, 3NF, and BCNF rules to ensure the schema is well-structured.
2. Provide step-by-step documentation of the normalization process.

PHASE 5: IMPLEMENTATION

1. Create 7 to 8 tables based on the schema.


2. Populate each table with at least 50-60 rows of meaningful data.
3. Establish table relationships using SQL commands (e.g., FOREIGN KEY).

PHASE 6: QUERY AND REPORTING

1. Formulate SQL queries to address specific requirements, using:


o Joins, Aggregate Functions, Group By, Having, and Order By clauses.
2. Design views for frequently accessed data.
3. Generate detailed reports from the database using SQL queries.

PHASE 7: DOCUMENTATION

1. Compile a detailed report containing:


o Problem Statement
o System Analysis
o ERD and Schema Design
o Normalization Steps
o Table Definitions and Populated Data
o SQL Queries and Outputs
o Views and Reports
