摘要

本文描述了对实体关系图的系统处理，从而确定了三种基本数据结构。对这些结构的识别构成了数据建模的有用分析和诊断工具。提出了一种计算数据模型中每种结构类型出现次数的算法，并探讨了使用这些值作为系统开发工作估计度量的基础的可能性。这种度量可以在开发周期中比目前使用的其他度量更早地应用。对于特定类型的系统，确定了开发工作估计的经验表达式。

Elementary structures in entity-relationship diagrams: a new metric for effort estimation

The paper describes a systematic treatment of the entity relationship diagram, resulting in the identification of three elementary data structures. Recognition of these structures is shown to constitute a useful analytical and diagnostic tool for data modelling. An algorithm for counting the number of occurrences of each type of structure in a data model is presented and the possibility is explored of using these values as the basis for a metric for system development effort estimation. Such a metric could be applied earlier in the development cycle than others currently in use. For a specific class of system an empirical expression for the estimation of development effort is determined.
