PART-B(5*16=80 marks)

11. (a)(1) Discuss first normal form, second normal form and third normal forms.(10)
(2) Normalize the give relations as required.
i. customer(customer-ID,customer name,telephone numbers,credit cards) to first normal form
[note : telephone numbers, credit cards are multivalued Attributes]
ii. Student(rollno,name,courseno,course max,marks,yearofstudy, Address)to third normal form
iii. vendor order(vendorno,orderno, vendorname,qty supplied, price/unit)to second normal form

(b) Discuss:
(i) conflict serializability
(ii) view serializability
(iii) two phase commit protocol
(iv) validation based concurrency control protocol.

12. (a) Discuss in detail how parallelism could be used in query processing and relational operation executions.(16)

or

(b) (i)consider the relations😔10)

employee(name,address,salary,plant-number)
machine(machine-number,type,plant-number)
Assume that the employee relation is fragmented horizontally by plant-number and that each fragment is stored locally at the corresponding plant site. Assume that the machine relation is stored its entirety at the Armonk site. Describe a good strategy for processing each of the following queries.

* find all employees at the plant that contains machine number 1130.
* find all employees at plant that contain machine whose type is "milling machine".
* find all machines at the almaden plant.
* compute join of find employee and machine relations.
