1. A college runs many classes. Each class may be taught by several teachers, and a teacher may teach several classes. A particular class always uses the same room. Because classes may meet at different times or on different evenings, it is possible for different classes to use the same room.
2. Each employee in an engineering company has at most one recognized skill, but a given skill may be possessed by several employees. An employee is able to operate a given machine-type (e.g., lathe, grinder) if he has one of several skills, but each skill is associated with the operation of only one machine type. Possession of a given skill (e.g., mechanic, electrician) allows an employee to maintain several machine-types, although maintenance of any given machine-type requires a specific skill (e.g., a lathe must be maintained by a mechanic).
1. A company has a number of employees. Each employee may be assigned to one or more projects, or may not be assigned to a project. A project must have at least one employee assigned, and may have several employees assigned.
2. A university has a large number of courses in its catalog. Each course may have one or more other courses as prerequisites, or may have no prerequisites.
4. A hospital patient has a patient history. Each patient has one or more history records (we assume that the initial patient visit is always recorded as an instance of the history). Each patient history record belongs to exactly one patient.
