Database
DBMS
Data model
Data

Data model is a set or collection of construct used for creating a database and producing designs for the databases

Data about data is metadata


True
False
Database is a data structure that stores metadata, i.e. data about data. More generally we can say an organized
collection of information.

A primary key is an attribute (or set of attributes) that has been chosen for an entity, whose values
are used to uniquely identify a particular instance of an entity.
True
False
Partially True
None of the given

Which of the following is INCORRECT statement concerning the database design process?
During requirements collection and analysis phase, one can gather the data requirements of database
users.
By referring to a high level data model, it is possible to understand the data requirements of the users,
entity types, relationships and constraints.
Transformation of the high level data model into the implementation data model is called logical design or
data model mapping.
During the logical design phase of internal storage structures, access paths and file organization
for the database files are specified.

These things are done at physical design stage not at logical design stage. At logical design stage we are
concerned about schema structures.
Which feature of database provides conversion from inconsistent state of DB to a consistent state
ensuring minimum data loss?
User accessible catalog
Data processing
Recovery service
Authorization service
Who is responsible for authorizing access to the database, for coordinating and monitoring its
use?
