Representing Semantic Object Model and Types of Semantic Object Model:
Like E-R model, we can transform semantic object
model into relational data model. In the semantic object model, seven types of
objects have been discussed. We can easily transform (convert) any type of
semantic object into a relation. We have to handle less normalization problems,
when a semantic object model is converted into relational database design. Thus,
when transforming an object into relations, the relations are usually in DK/NF
or close to it.
There are seven types of objects in semantic object model. A brief
description is given below to represent each of these objects into relational
database design.
