One-to-one relationship:

For every 1:1 relationship type R in the ER diagram including two entities E1 and E2 we take one of entities (say E1) preferably with total participation and add primary key attribute of one more entity E2 as a foreign key attribute in the table of entity (E1). We will also have all the simple attributes of relationship type R in E1 if any.

For instance, the DEPARTMENT relationship has been extended to contain head-Id and attribute of the relationship. Please note we will maintain information in this table of only present head and Date from which s/he is the head.

There is one Head_of 1:1 relationship among FACULTY and DEPARTMENT. We select DEPARTMENT entity having total participation and add primary key attribute ID of FACULTY entity as a foreign key in DEPARTMENT entity named as Head_ID. Now the DEPARTMENT table will be as follows:

DEPARTMENT

D_NO

D_NAME

Head_ID

Date-from
