An Elegant and Efficient Database Design for Home-Based Restaurants

Abstract

This work is to build and design a database for a home-based restaurant and transform a current business from their paper-based system into an efficient computerized one so as to ease and automate the process of administrative and managerial activities. We initiated the goal of building a database by surveying eleven small restaurants in order to gather the requirements needed to design the database system. This is followed by subsequent phases of planning, analyzing, and designing the database in a comprehensive manner. We evaluate various technologies for implementation of the database and decide upon the most advantageous option to build the new database system for home-based restaurants.
