MatBase Algorithm for Translating Entity-Relationship Data Models into (Elementary) Mathematical Data Model Schemes
Abstract
This paper presents a pseudocode algorithm for translating Entity-Relationship data models into (Elementary) Mathematical Data Model schemes. We prove that this algorithm is linear, sound, complete, and optimal. As an example, we apply this algorithm to an Entity-Relationship data model for a teaching sub-universe. We also provide the main additional features added to the implementation of this algorithm in MatBase, our intelligent knowledge and database management system prototype based on both the Entity-Relationship, (Elementary) Mathematical, and Relational Data Models.
