3.  Which is not a type of data management technology?


4.  Which is not a relevant feature of CASE tools?


5.  The first step in database development is which of the following?


6.  Which of the following database activities determines the entities, attributes, and relationships of data?


7.  The use of packaged data models can offer which of the following benefits?


8.  The Enterprise tier of the three-tiered database architecture includes:


9.  An entity type is which of the following?


10.  Strategic Planning factors do not include which of the following?


11.  CASE tools do not include which of the following features?


12.  In enterprise data modeling, which is incorrect?


13.  Which of the following database activities require a specific knowledge of a DBMS?


14.  User views are included as part of which schema?


15.  Whose role is it to determine the requirements and design for a database?


16.  There is one physical schema for each logical schema.


17.  The most important reason for data architecture is reliability.


18.  The systems development life cycle cannot be used with database implementation.


19.  Enterprise data modeling typically occurs during information systems planning.


20.  During logical database design, the conceptual data model is transformed into a logical data model which describes the data in terms of a specific data management technology.


21.  A conceptual schema is usually depicted in graphical format using E-R or object-modeling notations.


22.  The physical database design identifies data integrity and security requirements.


23.  The longest step of database development is database maintenance.


24.  Incremental commitment does not allow a project to be easily redirected or to be terminated.


25.  There are three stages involved when analyzing the initiation of an information systems project.


26.  One of the most popular systems development life cycle methods is prototyping.


27.  The goal of information systems planning is to align information technology with the business strategies of the organization.


28.  Functional decomposition is the process of breaking down the functions of an organization into greater levels of detail.


29.  Packaged data models can reduce implementation times and costs.


30.  With an enterprise data model, it is much easier to build applications because you know exactly what data exist and what needs to be added.
