    This document describes a university database schema. It specifies attributes for tables such as classrooms, departments, courses, instructors, and schedules. Constraints are defined to ensure valid data types and values. Time attributes are split into hour and minute components rather than using a single datetime field, for ease of querying and comparison. Sample data is provided to illustrate the schema.

    Detailed University Schema

    These attributes also have constraints that ensure that only numbers representing valid
    time values appear in those attributes. This version of the schema for time...slot works
    on all databases, including Oracle. Note that although Oracle supports the datetime
    datatype, datetime includes a specific day, month, and year as well as a time, and is
    not appropriate here since we want only a time. There are two alternatives to splitting
    the time attributes into an hour and a minute component, but neither is desirable. The
    first alternative is to use a varchar type, but that makes it hard to enforce validity con­
    straints on the string as well as to perform comparison on time. The second alternative
    is to encode time as an integer representing a number of minutes ( or seconds) from
    midnight, but this alternative requires extra code with each query to convert values be­
    tween the standard time representation and the integer encoding. We therefore choose
    the two-part solution.
