ABSTRACT
Data modeling is an approach to model data by mapping operational tasks iteratively, while associated
guidelines are either partly mapped in the data model or expressed through software applications. Since an
organization is a collection of business processes, it is essential that data models utilize such processes to
facilitate data modeling. Also, data models should incorporate guidelines for completing operational tasks
through the concept of business rules. This paper outlines a unified framework on database modeling and
design based on business process concepts that also incorporates business rules impacting business
operations. The paper focuses on the relational database and its primary mode of conceptual modeling in
the form of an entity relationship model. Concepts are illustrated through Oracle's database language
PL/SQL and its Web variant PL/SQL Server Pages.
