CS6302 Database Management Systems question paper - May/June 2015 / Anna University Previous Year 2015 Exam Questions / Anna University Previous Year 2015 Computer Science and Information Technology Question Papers / CS6302  / CS 2255 / CS 46 / CS 1254/080250009/10144 CS 406 — Database Management Systems Question with Answers

Question Paper Code : 77094

B.E./B.Tech. DEGREE EXAMINATION, APRIL/MAY 2015.
Third Semester
Computer Science and Engineering
CS 6302 — DATABASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
(Common to Information Technology)
(Regulation 2013)


Time : Three hours                                                             Maximum : 100 marks

Answer ALL questions.
PART A — (10 × 2 = 20 marks)

1. Write the characteristics that distinguish the database approach with the file-based approach.
2. Define: Functional dependency
3. State the need for query optimization.
4. What is the difference between static and dynamic SQL?
7. How dynamic hashing differ from static hashing?
8. Write about four types (Star, snowflake, galaxy and fact constellation) of data warehouse schemas.
9. Define threats and risks.
10. What is association rule mining?

PART B — (5 × 16 = 80 marks)

11. (a) Draw an ER diagram for the “Restaurant Menu Ordering System”, which will facilitate the food items ordering and services within a restaurant. The entire restaurant scenario is detailed as follows. The customer is able to view the food items menu, call the waiter, place orders and obtain the final bill through the computer kept in their table. The waiters through their wireless tablet PC are able to initialize a table for customers, control the table functions to assist customers, orders, send orders to food preparation staff (chef) and finalize the customer’s bill. The food preparation staffs (chefs), with their touch-display interfaces to the system, are able to view orders sent to the kitchen by waiters. During preparation, they are able to let the waiter know the status of each item, and can send notifications when items are completed. The system should have full accountability and logging facilities, and should support supervisor actions to account for exceptional circumstances, such as a meal being refunded or walked out on. (16)
Or

Student_File(student_number, student_name, address, telephone)
Course_File(course_number, description, hours, professor_number)
Professor_File(Professor_number, name, office)
Registration_File(student_number, course_number, date)

(i) Which courses does a specific professor teach?
(ii) What courses are taught by two specific professors?
(iii) Who teaches a specific course and where is his/her office?

S2: T3:W(X), T1:R(X), T1:W(Y), T2:R(Z), T2:W(Z), T3:R(Z)
For each of the schedules, answer the following questions;
(i) What is the precedence graph for the schedule? (2)
(ii) Is the schedule conflict-serializable? If so, what are all the conflict equivalent serial schedules? (7)
(iii) Is the schedule view-serializable? If so, what are all the view equivalent serial schedules? (7)

Or
(b) Explain the architectural components of a data warehouse and write about data marts. (16)
