Abstract

Underlying the structure of a database is the concept of a data model. A data model is a collection of conceptual tools for describing the real-world entities to be modeled in the database and the relationships among these entities. Data models differ in the primitives available for describing data and in the amount of semantic detail that can be expressed.
