Glossary
- Data Model:
-
An abstraction that defines a data structure (data elements and their relations), a set of operations (a language), and a set of integrity constraints
- Database:
-
Collection of data organized following a data model and collected and maintained with a purpose
- Data Base Management System (DBMS):
-
A software system that implements a data model and provide data management services to other applications
- Schema:
-
Metadata that describes and defines the constraints (e.g., types, domains, and dependencies) over the data in a database
- Transformation Language:
-
A set of operations to map a database from one schema to another
- Social Networks (SN):
-
A set of actors and the relations among them; both actors and relations may be described by attributes
- Social Media:
-
Social networks that include diverse types of media (e.g., text, photographies, and videos)
