The second image mirrors the structure of the first but expands on it with one additional task/project.
Here's the detailed analysis based on the previous schema:
Components:
-
Main Rectangle (Dynamic Solutions)
- Located on the left.
- Represents the client entity, providing identifying information such as:
- Name: Dynamic Solutions
- Address: 6889 Oak La., Phoenix, AZ 85002
-
Three Smaller Rectangles (Tasks/Projects)
- Positioned to the right of the main rectangle.
- Represent tasks/projects associated with the client.
- Details for Each Task/Project:
- Task 1: "Proposal for new database project"
- Due Date: 1/27/00
- Estimated Hours: 30
- Client: Dynamic Solutions
- Task 2: "User manual for word processing software"
- Due Date: 4/20/00
- Estimated Hours: 800
- Client: Dynamic Solutions
- Task 3: "Script for online media"
- Due Date: 1/17/00
- Estimated Hours: 15
- Client: Dynamic Solutions
-
Arrows
- Point from the main rectangle (client) to each of the smaller rectangles (tasks/projects).
- Indicates a one-to-many relationship, where one client can be linked to multiple tasks/projects.
Entity Relationship:
-
Parent Entity: Client (Dynamic Solutions)
- One client can have multiple associated tasks/projects.
-
Child Entities: Tasks/Projects
- Each task is uniquely associated with a single client through a foreign key relationship.
