The document is a quiz for a system analysis and design course covering essentials of database design. It contains questions testing understanding of: 1. The database design process, including determining purpose, organizing information, normalizing data, and refining the design. 2. Common input and output integrity controls like data validation, transaction logging, and referential integrity. 3. Design of system inputs and outputs through data validation, electronic forms, data capture devices, report functions, and how output technologies affect database system design.
