A
data model says what information is to be
|
|
|
contained
in a database, how the information will
|
|
|
be
used, and how the items in the database will be
|
|
|
related
to each other. (To combine and
synthesize
|
|
disparate
data)
|

One
of the most widely used methods for
|
|
|
developing
data models is the entity-relationship
|
|
|
model. The relational model is the most widely
|
|
|
used
type of data model. Another example is
|
|
|
NIAM.
