Fundamental of database systems by Shamkant B. Navathe, Ramez Elmasri. This pdf of DBMS introduces the fundamental concepts necessary for designing, using, and implementing database systems and database applications. The PDF is written so that it is possible to cover topics in various sequences.

The chapter dependency chart below shows the major dependencies among chapters. As the diagram illustrates, it is possible to start with several different topics following the first two introductory chapters.

Although the chart may seem complex, it is important to note that if the chapters are covered in order, the dependencies are not lost. Constraints provide one method of implementing business rules in the database and support subsequent data use within the application layer.

SQL implements constraint functionality in the form of check constraints. Constraints restrict the data that can be stored in relations. These are usually defined using expressions that result in a boolean value, indicating whether or not the data satisfies the constraint.

Constraints can apply to single attributes, to a tuple restricting combinations of attributes or to an entire relation. Since every attribute has an associated domain, there are constraints domain constraints. The two principal rules for the relational model are known as entity integrity and referential integrity. A primary key uniquely specifies a tuple within a table.

In order for an attribute to be a good primary key it must not repeat. While natural attributes attributes used to describe the data being entered are sometimes good primary keys, surrogate keys are often used instead.

A surrogate key is an artificial attribute assigned to an object which uniquely identifies it for instance, in a table of information about students at a school they might all be assigned a student ID in order to differentiate them. The surrogate key has no intrinsic inherent meaning, but rather is useful through its ability to uniquely identify a tuple. Another common occurrence, especially in regard to N:M cardinality is the composite key.

A composite key is a key made up of two or more attributes within a table that together uniquely identify a record. For example, in a database relating students, teachers, and classes. Classes could be uniquely identified by a composite key of their room number and time slot, since no other class could have exactly the same combination of attributes.

In fact, use of a composite key such as this can be a form of data verification, albeit a weak one. A foreign key is a field in a relational table that matches the primary key column of another table. Foreign keys need not have unique values in the referencing relation. A foreign key can be used to cross-reference tables, and it effectively uses the values of attributes in the referenced relation to restrict the domain of one or more attributes in the referencing relation.

The concept is described formally as: 'For all tuples in the referencing relation projected over the referencing attributes, there must exist a tuple in the referenced relation projected over those same attributes such that the values in each of the referencing attributes match the corresponding values in the referenced attributes.

A stored procedure is executable code that is associated with, and generally stored in, the database. Stored procedures usually collect and customize common operations, like inserting a tuple into a relation, gathering statistical information about usage patterns, or encapsulating complex business logic and calculations.

Frequently they are used as an application programming interface API for security or simplicity. Stored procedures are not part of the relational database model, but all commercial implementations include them. An index is one way of providing quicker access to data. Indexes can be created on any combination of attributes on a relation.

Queries that filter using those attributes can find matching tuples randomly using the index, without having to check each tuple in turn. This is analogous to using the index of a book to go directly to the page on which the information you are looking for is found, so that you do not have to read the entire book to find what you are looking for.

Relational databases typically supply multiple indexing techniques, each of which is optimal for some combination of data distribution, relation size, and typical access pattern.

Indices are usually not considered part of the database, as they are considered an implementation detail, though indices are usually maintained by the same group that maintains the other parts of the database. The use of efficient indexes on both primary and foreign keys can dramatically improve query performance. This is because B-tree indexes result in query times proportional to log n where n is the number of rows in a table and hash indexes result in constant time queries no size dependency as long as the relevant part of the index fits into memory.

Queries made against the relational database, and the derived relvars in the database are expressed in a relational calculus or a relational algebra. In his original relational algebra, Codd introduced eight relational operators in two groups of four operators each. The first four operators were based on the traditional mathematical set operations:. The remaining operators proposed by Codd involve special operations specific to relational databases:. Other operators have been introduced or proposed since Codd's introduction of the original eight including relational comparison operators and extensions that offer support for nesting and hierarchical data, among others.

Normalization was first proposed by Codd as an integral part of the relational model. If the tuple contains a candidate or primary key then obviously it is unique; however, a primary key need not be defined for a row or record to be a tuple. The definition of a tuple requires that it be unique, but does not require a primary key to be defined. Because a tuple is unique, its attributes by definition constitute a superkey.

In a relational database, all data are stored and accessed via relations. Relations that store data are called 'base relations', and in implementations are called 'tables'. Other relations do not store data, but are computed by applying relational operations to other relations.

These relations are sometimes called 'derived relations'. In implementations these are called 'views' or 'queries'. Derived relations are convenient in that they act as a single relation, even though they may grab information from several relations. Also, derived relations can be used as an abstraction layer. A domain describes the set of possible values for a given attribute, and can be considered a constraint on the value of the attribute.

Mathematically, attaching a domain to an attribute means that any value for the attribute must be an element of the specified set. The character string 'ABC' , for instance, is not in the integer domain, but the integer value is. Another example of domain describes the possible values for the field 'CoinFace' as 'Heads','Tails'. So, the field 'CoinFace' will not accept input values like 0,1 or H,T. Constraints make it possible to further restrict the domain of an attribute.

For instance, a constraint can restrict a given integer attribute to values between 1 and Constraints provide one method of implementing business rules in the database and support subsequent data use within the application layer.
