Semester 1, 2024 University of Tasmania

KIT502 Web Development

Tutorial 3
Activity 1 – Entity-Relationship (ER) Diagrams
Given the below scenario, create a table or tables identifying the Entitis (as well as their Primary key
and Attributes) that you would include in a database. Then using this information create an Entity-
Relationship(ER) Diagram.

The conference has different roles among participants – Chair (who oversees the conference),
Organiser (who organises and manages administrative works), Reviewer (who reviews the submitted
papers to determine whether to accept the paper or not), Author (who submits paper(s) to the
conference). Depending on the submission type, conference is held in two different venues: Sandy
Bay and City. The sessions of accepted Paper, Poster and Doctorial Consortium will be held in Sandy
Bay while others for example, working group and tips, techniques, and courseware, will be in City.

Each author can submit only one paper in the conference while each reviewer may review multiple
submitted papers (at least one paper). After reviewing the paper, the paper will be whether accepted
or rejected. Only the accepted authors can present at the conference.

You are going to build a web site for the 2024 Web Development Conference based on the above
scenario. You are also expected to identify the primary and foreign key(s) to designate the relationship.

Activity 2 – Design DB Tables for Assignment 2

Now, you are going to design your database table(s) using an ER diagram for your assignment. Please
have a discussion with your group members on how you are going to design database tables and their
relationships would be for your assignment. The primary objective of this activity is to gather feedback
from your tutor for your assignment. While an ER diagram for assignment 2 is not mandatory for
tutorial 3, you can still take advantage of this chance to receive direct feedback from your tutor. This
activity is the beginning of your database design process for the assignment 2, which will be submitted
for assignment 1.

Completed Task
You are required complete the task by Monday of the following week, which is the due date. However,
you are recommended to finish it as soon as this tutorial finishes. Your tutor may check your work in
class if time allows. Activity 1 is to submit and activity 2 is for you to get feedback and guidance from
your tutor.
