Definition

The category describes the relationship from the viewpoint of the target entity type. The category can be hierarchical, aggregating or referential.

Hierarchical

The target entity type is identified by the source entity type and is dependent for its existence on the source entity type.
The key of the source entity type becomes part of the canonic key of the target entity type.

Aggregating

The target entity type is identified by more than one source entity type and is dependent for its existence on the source entity types.
The keys of the source entity types become part of the canonic key of the target entity type.

Referential

The target entity type refers to the source entity type, that is, it is not identified by the source entity type. The key attributes of the source entity type are included in the target entity type as non-key attributes.
A relationship between two entities can be changed.
