Currently the Food and Drug Administration publishes radiopharmaceutical information for physicians to choose appropriate medical diagnosis and therapy for their patients. The primary functions of these radiopharmaceuticals are diagnosis and delivering doses to a patient with appropriate energy, biological half life, chemical behavior, and radiological half life. These radiopharmaceuticals preferentially react with certain type of cells. Diagnosis or therapy must be accurately prepared for and planned by medical professionals. The fast access to the internet has become a key tool for medical professionals to obtain this type of information. A web page has been developed that links nuclear and biological data to radiopharmaceutical information. Queries can be performed on this database to sort the radiopharmaceuticals by radiological half life, gamma energy, biological half life, medical application, chemical information or other parameters. This capability allows medical professionals and scientists to select radiopharmaceuticals by their characteristics. There are approximately 100 medical isotopes in the database. / Graduation date: 2000

This thesis describes a new approach of relational database design using the SET conceptual model. The SET conceptual model is used for information modelling. The database schema generated from the information modelling is called the SET schema. The SET schema consists of the declarations of all the sets of the database schema. A domain graph can be constructed based on the information declared in the SET schema. A domain graph is a directed graph with nodes labelled with declared sets and arcs labelled with degree information. Each are in the domain graph points to a node S from a node labelled with an immediate domain predecessor of S. The new method of table design for the relational database involves partitioning the domain graph into mutually exclusive <1,1>-connected components based on the degree information. These components (subgraphs) are then transformed into tree structures. These trees are extended to include the domain predecessors of their nodes to make them predecessor total. The projections of these extended trees into the value sets labelling their leaf nodes form a set of relations which can be represented by tables. This table design method is described and presented in this thesis, along with d program that automates the method. Given a schema of the SET model, together with some degree information about defined sets that a user must calculate based on the intention of the defined sets, the program produces a relational database schema that will record data for the SET schema correctly and completely. / Science, Faculty of / Computer Science, Department of / Graduate
