PART A — (10 × 2 = 20 Marks)
1. Define Atomicity in Transaction management.
2. Give example for one to one and one to many relationship.
3. What are primary key constraints?
4. Write the purpose of Trigger.
5. Define Boyce Codd Normal Form.
6. What is the need for Normalization?
8. Define two phase locking.
9. What is the need for RAID?
10. What is the basic difference between static hashing and dynamic hashing?

PART B — (5 × 16 = 80 Marks)
11. (a) Explain the purpose of database system
Or
 (b) Write about the structure of database system architecture with block diagram.
12. Consider the following relational database
          Employee (Employee-Name, Street, City)
          Works (Employee-Name, Company-Name, Salary)
          Company (Company-Name, City)
          Manager (Employee-Name, Manager-Name)
Give an SQL DDL definition of this database. Identify referential integrity constraints that should hold, and include them in the DDL definition.
Or
 (b) Consider the following relation
Employee (Employee-Name, Company-Name, Salary)
Write SQL for the following:                                                                 (4 X 4 = 16)
          (i) Find the total salary of each company
          (ii) Find the employee name who is getting lowest salary
          (iii) Find the company name which has lowest average salary
          (iv) Find the employee name whose salary is higher than average salary of TCS.
13. (a) Consider the following relation
CAR-SALE (Car#, Date-Sold, Salesman#, Commission%, Discount-amount)
Assume that a car may be sold by multiple salesmen, and hence (Car#, Salesman#) is the primary key.
Additional dependencies are,
Date-Sold --> Discount-amount
