I)   For  every  strong  entity  type  E  in  the  ER  diagram,  we  make  a  relation  R containing all the easy attributes of E. The relation R primary key will be one of the key attributes of R.

For example, the STUDENT, FACULTY, COURSE and DEPARTMENT tables in Figure.

COURSE

COURSE_ID: Primary Key

COURSE_NAME

DURATION

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

DEPARTMENT

D_NO: Primary Key

 

 

 

 

 

For each weak entity type W in the E R Diagram, we make another relation R that have all easy attributes of W. If E is an owner entity of W then key attribute of E is also contained in R. This key attribute of R is set as a foreign key attribute of R. Now the mixture of primary key attribute of owner partial key and entity type of weak entity type will form the key of the weak entity type.
