relational calculus are the mathematical basis for ‘relational databases’. • Relational algebra……. – Defines theoretical way of manipulating table contents using relational operators – Use of relational algebra operators on existing tables (relations) produces new relations • Codd defined eight relational operators: 4 Relational Algebra Operators • SELECT • PROJECT • UNION • INTERSECT • DIFFERENCE • DIVIDE • PRODUCT • JOIN 5 Re-visiting Set Theory 6 SELECT • Yields values

Schema Mapping in P2P Systems: We discussed the importance of and the techniques for‚ designing database integration systems in Chapter 4. Similar issues arise in data sharing P2P systems. Due to specific characteristics of P2P systems‚ e.g.‚ the dynamic and autonomous nature of peers‚ the approaches that rely on centralized global schemas no longer apply. The main problem is to support decentralized schema mapping so that a query expressed on one peer’s schema can be reformulated to a query

Data Anomalies Normalization is the process of splitting relations into well-structured relations that allow users to inset‚ delete‚ and update tuples without introducing database inconsistencies. Without normalization many problems can occur when trying to load an integrated conceptual model into the DBMS. These problems arise from relations that are generated directly from user views are called anomalies. There are three types of anomalies: update‚ deletion and insertion anomalies. An update anomaly

Consider a relation representing the present position of molecules in a closed container. The attributes are an ID for the molecule‚ the x‚ y‚ and z coordinates of the molecule‚ and its velocity in the x‚ y‚ and z dimensions. What FD’s would you expect to hold? What are the keys? Solution: Surely ID is a key by itself. However‚ we think that the attributes x‚ y‚ and z together form another key. The reason is that at no time can two molecules occupy the same point. Consider a relation with schema

Data Definition‚ Constraints‚ and Schema Changes CREATE TABLE -Specifies a new base relation by giving it a name‚ and specifying each of its attributes and their data types (INTEGER‚ FLOAT‚ DECIMAL(i‚j)‚ CHAR(n)‚ VARCHAR(n)) - A constraint NOT NULL may be specified on an attribute CREATE TABLE DEPARTMENT ( DNAME VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL‚ DNUMBER INTEGER NOT NULL‚ MGRSSN CHAR(9)‚ MGRSTARTDATE CHAR(9) ); - In SQL2‚ can use the CREATE TABLE command for specifying the primary key attributes
