Total number of questions: 14

Note: Answer all questions. Clearly state any reasonable assumption you make.

),Consider, Employee(Enp 1d,Emp_Name,Dept_ld), Dependent(Emp ld Dependent

Name), Department(Dept l4, Department_ Name) ,where Dept ld is a foreign key in the
employee talble and Emp_id is a foreign key in the dependent table.
Suggest the actions, most suitable to maintain referential integrity for the following cases
a) Deleting a row of the Employee table.
b) Deleting a row of the Department table. (2marks)
2). Define,
a) Recursive relationships.
b) Cardinality and participation. (2 marks)

3). Database system users are not computer trained, developers hide the complexity from
users through several levels of abstraction to simplify users interaction with the system
Briefly explain the three levels of abstraction. (2 marks)

4).Consider RI(A,B,C) and R2(C,D,E) with primary keys Aand Crespectively.

Estimate the number of tuples in the operation (R1 Natural Join R2), if RI contains 1000
tuples and R2 contains 2000 tuples. Explain. (2 marks)

S). Find the minimal set for the given FDs

F:{4+B, C+B, DABC, ACD} (2 marks)
6). Explain Conservative Two Phase Locking protocol. Justify that it ensures conflict
serializability and deadlock freedom with example. (2marks)

7). Explain how serializability is ensured for the given schedule Sl using two phase locking
protocol . How to determine the order of transactions of the equivalent serial schedule.
Sl: WI(4), RI(C), W2(4), W2(B),R2(C), WI(B) (2 marks)

8).Consider the schedules Sl: RI(A), WIA), R2(4), W2(4), C2, RI(B), WI(B) CI.
S2:RI(A), WI(A), CI, W2(4) R2(4) C2
S3: RI(A), WI(A), R2(4), W2(4), C1, C2.
(Clmeans commit of transaction TI)
Classify and explain which schedule is recoverable , non recoverable, cascading or
cascadeless. (3marks)
9). Anomalies in the relational model refer to inconsistencies that arise due to insertion,
deletion andmodification. Explain briefly all the anomalieswith examples. (3marks)

model. Depict cach table clearly. (4 marks)

11).Consider, Salesman(Salesman id, Salesman namne, City)

Customer(Customer id, Customer_name, Salesman id)
Order(Order _no, Amount, Date, Customer id, Salesman id)
The customer relation displays the details of the customer along with the salesman id who
served the particular customer. The order relation displays the details of order.
(a)> Write a sql query to find all the salesmen who worked for only one customer.
b) Display all the orders that had an amount greater than at least one of the orders from
June 3rd 2023. (4 marks)

12). Consider the relations,

Person(Name, Age, Gender)
Frequents(Name, Pizeria)
Eats(Name, Pizza)
Serves(Pizzeria, Pizza, Price)
Person has the details of the person. Frequents displays the Pizzeria name visited by a person.
Eats has the details of pizza type eaten by a person and Serves contains the details of pizzas
served in a pizzeria.
Write Relational Algebra expression for
a) Find all pizzerias that are frequented by only females or males.
b) Find all pizza types which are not eaten by anyone. (4 marks)
13). Suppose you are given arelation Rwith five atomic attributes ABCDE. For theset of
functional dependencies F:fAB-’C, C-D, D-»E, E-A} do the following.
a) ldentify the candidate keys for R. Show your derivations.
b) ldentify the highest normal form RSatisfies. Explain.
c) IfR is not in BCNE,decompose it intoa set of BCNF relations. Explain.
(4 marks)
14). Consider the following schedule,
TI T2 T3

Read(z)
Read(Y)
Write(Y)
Read(Y)
Read(z)
Read(x)
Write(x)
Write(Y)
Write(2)
Read(X)
Read(Y)
Write(Y)
Write(X)

a) Draw the precedence graph for the schedule . Is the schedule conflict
serializable if sowhat are the equivalent serial schedules.
b)\Assume the transaction Ti has timestamp i, Explain whether the timestamp
ordering protocol allows the schedule or not.
