When Entity/Relationship Models Meet Graph Databases
Summary: Bridges classical ER modeling and property/edge-labeled graph models to derive principled graph schemas. Presents methods to encode ER constraints, perform design-for-workload transformations, and produce integrity-preserving mappings for efficient graph query processing.
