Question
In the problem below, x and y are local application program values Read( ) and Writel ) fetch and stored the
persistent values in a database. The database values are read / written by two different transactions. The time
sequence of these operations is shown in the table below. You cannot change the time sequence.
Take the initial values of x and y to be x = 4, y = 2.
a) In this nart the transactions are operating with isolation level READ UNCOMMITTED (no locks)

For the execution order shown above, what are the final values of x and y?
Answer: x=
b) There is a problem with the interleaved execution plan for these transactions.
What is the problem, i.e., which concurrency problem does this demonstrate?
Answer:
c) Rewrite the sequence of operations using the standard technique for dealing with concurrency
problems of this type for isolation level SERIALIZABLE. In the columns on the right specify
the type of requests made. (type your answer into the grid below) You cannot change the time sequence.
