什么是数据模型（What is a data model） In a connection, an entity can appear two or more times, playing multiple different roles, which is called an entity set itself. For example, in the same department, there can be a relationship between leaders and leaders. Subclass and is - a hierarchy Are often such entity set B information world, and it belongs to another entity sets A, B have special attribute of the entity need to describe, and these special attributes of entity sets A nonsense of other entities. In the e-r model, B is A subclass of A, or A is the parent of B. There is a hierarchical relationship between the two types of physical sets - is-a. For example, a worker in the enterprise entity and the manager entity sets, managers focus on each manager, and worker concentration of a worker, he has all the attributes of the worker, but his own attribute time to the worker set the other worker is meaningless. At this point, we can say that there is a link between the manager set and the worker set. (P85 figure 5-8) When designing the e-r model, the basic elements of the three e-r models, such as entity set, contact set and attribute, should be confirmed according to the requirement analysis. The three design principles that need to be emphasized are: (1) relative principle: The process of modeling is actually a process of object abstraction. Entities, contacts, and attributes are different interpretations and understandings of the abstract process of the same object. In the same situation different people, or the same person in different situations, the result of the abstract of things may be different. In the entire design process of the e-r model, entities, contacts and attributes are not static, and may be constantly tweaked and optimized. (2) principle of consensus: The same object is required to be consistent in the abstract results of the different business systems. Because the business system is the subsystem of the system. (3) the simple principle: To simplify the
