The physical design process involves creating a diagram that serves as a model of the physical database. This diagram, known as a data structure diagram, visually represents the way data entities are related physically just as the entity-relationship diagram represents the way data entities are related logically. The data structure diagram also describes the storage characteristics of the data. Chapters 9 through 13 of this manual show you how to create a data structure diagram.
