How To Make Chen ER Diagram

The Chen ERD notation model is a popular standard and is widely used worldwide in database and software design. The entity-relationship model proposed by Dr. Chen is constructed using a natural view of how the real world comprises entities and the relationships that exist with these identified entities. It was designed to leverage the advantages of the three entity-data models (network model, relationship model, entity model). The free Chen Notation solution for ConceptDraw DIAGRAM provides vector stencil libraries with full standardized Chen notation included.
