University?

For IGNOU Solved Assignments Visit : http://www.ignousolvedassignments.com

Ans:-There can be many applications of a database system can be possible like a university can
have colleges or study center, For example - like in IGNOU there are many regional center, which
have their study center's Enrollment No. of student managed by regional center as well as IGNOU
study center manages exams, particles, counseling sessions and attendance ,study material etc, So
we are creating a list of all applications which can be performed with university database system.
New Registration
Study center allotment
Study material details
Exam center details
Regional center details

Question 4: Consider a "Project Management System" that maintains the database using the
following tables: (10 Marks)

Project (pid, ptitle, startdate, enddate, duration_in_months, cid, Cost)


Clients (cid, cname, caddress, cphone)
Employee (eid, name, address, phone)
Project-person (pid, eid)

Please note that an employee may be working on more than one project in the organization
at any given time. Write and run the following SQL queries on the tables:

Ans:Create table Project(Pid Integer primary key,ptille varchar(50),startdate Date,enddate


Date,duration-in-months Integer,cid Int ,cost int);
Create table clients (cid int Primary key,cname varchar(50),c-address varchar(50),c-phone BigInt);
Create table Employee(eid Int Primary key, name varchar(50),address varchar(50),phone BigInt);
Create table Project-Person(Pid Int,cid Int);

For IGNOU Solved Assignments Visit : http://www.ignousolvedassignments.com

a) Find the cid and cname of the clients who have given only one project to the company.
Ans:- Select cid ,cname from clients INNER JOIN Project ON clients.cid=project.cid WHERE
cid=(select count(cid)from Project);
(b) List the details of all the employees whoever are working on the project with project code
(pid) = 111.
Ans:- Select * from Employee INNERJOIN Project-Person ON Employe.eid=Project-Person.eid
WHERE Project-Person.pid=111;
(c) List all the project details those are currently under development.
Ans:- Select * from Project WHERE end-date=NULL;
(d) Find the projects whose cost is more than 11 lakhs.
Ans:- Select * from Project WHERE cost>11,00,000;
(e) Find the employee who is not working on any of the project. Note: Make suitable
assumptions, if any.
Ans:- Select * from Employee INNER JOIN Project-Person ON Employee.eid=Project-Person.eid
WHERE Employee.eid NOT NULL
Question 5: Consider the Relation R={A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H } and the set of functional
dependencies.
A C B CG
AD EH
C DF
A H
What is the key for R? Decompose R into 2NF, 3NF and finally in BCNF relation.
Ans:-A functional dependency (FD) is a constraint between two sets of attributes in a relation
from a database.
Given a relation R, a set of attributes X in R is said to functionally determine another attribute Y,
also in R, (written X

Y) if, and only if, each X value is associated with precisely one Y value. Customarily

we call X the determinant set and Y the dependent attribute. Thus, given a tuple and the values of
the attributes in X, one can determine the corresponding value of the Y attribute. In simple words,
if X value is known, Y value is certainly known. For the purposes of simplicity, given that X and Y
are sets of attributes in R, X

Y denotes that X functionally determines each of the members of Yin this

case Y is known as the dependent set. Thus, a candidate key is a minimal set of attributes that
functionally determine all of the attributes in a relation. The concept

For IGNOU Solved Assignments Visit : http://www.ignousolvedassignments.com

of functional dependency arises when one attribute is dependent on another attribute and it also
uniquely determines the other attribute.
(Note: the "function" being discussed in "functional dependency" is the function of identification.)
A functional dependency FD: X

Y is called trivial if Y is a subset of X.

The determination of functional dependencies is an important part of designing databases in the


relational model, and in database normalization and demoralization. The functional dependencies,
along with the attribute domains, are selected so as to generate constraints that would exclude as
much data inappropriate to the user domain from the system as possible.
For example, suppose one is designing a system to track vehicles and the capacity of their engines.
Each vehicle has a unique vehicle identification number (VIN). One would write VIN
EngineCapacity because it would be inappropriate for a vehicle's engine to have more than one
capacity. (Assuming, in this case, that vehicles only have one engine.) However, EngineCapacity
VIN, is incorrect because there could be many vehicles with the same engine capacity.
This functional dependency may suggest that the attribute EngineCapacity be placed in a relation
with candidate key VIN. However, that may not always be appropriate. For example, if that
functional dependency occurs as a result of the transitive functional dependencies VIN
VehicleModel and VehicleModel

EngineCapacity then that would not result in a normalized relation. a

relation is in BOC normal form if all its determinant are candidate keys, in other words each
determinant can be used as a primary key. Because relation R has only one determinant (a, b, c),,
which is the composite primary, key and since the primary is a candidate key therefore R is in BOC
normal form.
Now R may or may not be in fourth normal form.
1. If R contains no multi value dependency then R will be in Fourth normal form.
2. Assume R has the following two-multi value dependencies:
a ------->> b and

a ---------->> c

In this case R will be in the fourth normal form if b and c dependent on each other. However if
b and c are independent of each other then R is not in fourth normal form and the relation has
to be projected to following two non-loss projections. These non-loss projections will be in fourth
normal form.

Example:
Case 1:
Assume the following relation:
Employee (Eid:pk1, Language:pk2, Skill:pk3)
No multi value dependency, therefore R is in fourth normal form.

case 2:
Assume the following relation with multi-value dependency:
Employee (Eid:pk1, Languages:pk2, Skills:pk3)
Eid ---->> Languages

Eid ------>> Skills

Languages and Skills are dependent.


This says an employee speak several languages and has several skills. However for each skill
a specific language is used when that skill is practiced.

Thus employee 100 when he/she teaches speaks English but when he cooks speaks French.
This relation is in fourth normal form and does not suffer from any anomalies.
case 3:
Assume the following relation with multi-value dependency:
Employee (Eid:pk1, Languages:pk2, Skills:pk3)
Eid ---->> Languages
Languages and Skills are independent.

This relation is not in fourth normal form and suffers from all three types of anomalies.
Insertion anomaly: To insert row (200 English Cooking) we have to insert two extra rows
(200 Arabic cooking), and (200 English Singing) otherwise the database will be inconsistent.
Note the table will be as follow:

Deletion anomaly: If employee 100 discontinue politic skill we have to delete two rows
(100 Kurdish Politic), and (100 English Politic) otherwise the database will be inconsistent.

Update anomaly: If employee 200 changes his skill from singing to dancing we have to make
changes in more than one place
The relation is projected to the following two non-loss projections which are in forth normal form
