I understand the intentions of a database, being to streamline the data record-keeping of any organizations. And I understand the hardware needed to do such. The area I find myself the most lost in is the idea of programming the rules and structure of a database. In my head a database is a chart (or multiple charts) with fields that is used to store records. And then those records stored in one chart intertwine with other charts of course so we need to have relationships between the charts. Where I get lost is in the thought of programming a structure for the data to fit in. Are we making metaphysical locations to store data or are we just writing relationshipds between data that is stored on a plethora of different options?
Suppose your task as a software engineer at Big-University is to design a data mining system to
examine their university course database, which contains the following information: the name,
address. And status (e.g.. undergraduate or graduate) of each student, the courses taken, and their
cumulative grade point average (GPA).
Describe the architecture you would choose. What is the purpose of each component of this
architecture.
Notown Records has decided to store information about musicians who perform on its albums (as well as other company data) in a database. The company has wisely chosen to hire you as a database designer.• Each musician that records at Notown has an SSN, a name, an address, and a phone number. Poorly paid musicians often share the same address, and no address has more than one phone.• Each instrument used in songs recorded at Notown has a name (e.g., guitar, synthesizer, flute) and a musical key (e.g., C, B-flat, E-flat).• Each album recorded on the Notown label has a title, a copyright date, a format (e.g., CD or MC), and an album identifier.• Each song recorded at Notown has a title and an author.• Each musician may play several instruments, and a given instrument may be played by several musicians.• Each album has a number of songs on it, but no song may appear on more than one album.• Each song is performed by one or more musicians, and a musician may perform a number of songs.• Each…

- The ABC Engineering (ABCE) has contacted you to create a conceptual model whose application will meet the expected database requirements for the company's training program. The ABCE administrator gives you the description of the training group's operating environment. ABCE has 12 instructors and can handle up to 30 trainees per class ● It offers five Advanced Technology courses, each of which may generate several classes. If a class has fewer than 10 trainees, it will be canceled. Therefore, it is possible for a course not to generate any classes Each class is taught by one instructor Each instructor may teach up to two classes or may be assigned to do research only Each trainee may take up to two classes per year Complete the table to define all of the entities and relationships.

The database must enable managers of BAC to track blueprints, parts, and software for each HUD, using the following business rules: For simplicity’s sake, you may assume that the TRX-5A unit is based on two engineering blueprints and that the TRX-5B unit is based on three engineering blueprints. You are free to make up your own blueprint names. All parts used in the TRX-5A and TRX-5B are classified as hardware. For simplicity’s sake, you may assume that the TRX-5A unit uses three parts and that the TRX-5B unit uses four parts. You are free to make up your own part names. BAC wants to keep track of all part price changes and the dates of those changes. BAC wants to keep track of all TRX-5A and TRX-5B software.

- The database stores an employee table consisting of 500,000 records each of which is 400 bytes long. A SSD has storage capacity of 1 TB, read bandwidth of 1 GB/sec., and a block size of 4096 bytes. The database designer wants to add a large description field of 1,000 bytes to each employee record. However, this field will only have data in it 20% of the time and is only accessed in 25% of the queries. 1)Calculate: The average time (in seconds) to read the whole table when using spanned, fixed records and no splitting. 2)Calculate: The average time (in seconds) to read the whole table when using spanned, variable records. Assume a variable length record requires 20 bytes of overhead to store record information. 3)Calculate: The average time (in seconds) to read the whole table when using spanned records and splitting. Assume using splitting requires 20 bytes of overhead. The large 1000 byte field is only access 25% of the time.arrow_forwardFor the aviation industry, "snapshot isolation" serves as an example of a database design.

A brief description of operations follows: Faculty members may use the vehicles owned by Tiny College for officially sanctioned travel. For example, the vehicles may be used by faculty members to travel to off-campus learning centers, to travel to locations at which research papers are presented, to transport students to officially sanctioned locations, and to travel for public service purposes. The vehicles used for such purposes are managed by Tiny College’s Travel Far But Slowly (TFBS) Center.

Reviews by reviewers are recorded for use in the paper selection process. The database system caters primarily to reviewers who record answers to evaluation questions for each paper they review and make recommendations whether to accept or reject the paper. The data requirements are summarized as follows: Authors of papers are uniquely identified by their email id. Their first and last names are also recorded. Each paper is assigned a unique identifier by the system and is described by a title, an abstract, and a file name. A paper may may have multiple authors, but one of the authors is designated as the contact author. Reviewers of papers are uniquely identified by their email address. Each reviewer's first name, last name, phone number, affiliation, and topics of interest are also recorded. Each paper is assigned between two and…arrow_forward
