3. Explain the important aspect or desirable property of simple predicates Reasons for Fragmentation Degree of Fragmentation Comparisons of Relocation Alternatives Write an iterative algorithm that would generate a complete and minimal set of predicates Pr’ from a given set of simple predicates Pr. Given relation PAY as in Figure B. Let p 1 : SAL<30000 and p 2 :SAL≥30000 be two simple predicates. Perform a horizontal fragmentation of PAY with respect to these predicates to obtain PAY 1 and PAY 2 Show the Stages of Normalization. Why Repeating Groups are not allowed in a relational design? Bring the following relation to 3rd Normal Form. Draw E-R Diagram for the Banking Enterprise Distinguish between super key and candidate key Determine Keys from E-R Sets All Example Queries For the following relation Fig. A, find the largest account balance Why simple join graph are desirable? Which correctness criteria are satisfied by referential integrity? Slide 3 Sample Questions
