Each faculty is assigned to exactly one office room. An office room is assigned to at least one faculty. Is the following E-R diagram correct?If your answer is NO, indicate what is wrong in this E-R diagram.

Faculty Office AssignedTo

Answer: Correct!

A faculty teaches at most three classes, but a class is taught by exactly one faculty. Is the following E-R diagram correct?If your answer is NO, indicate what is wrong in this E-R diagram.

Total participation of Faculty w.r.t teaches.Key Constraint on Faculty w.r.t teaches.Partial participation of Classes w.r.t teaches.

Answer: NO

Each faculty schedules office hours in exactly one office room at a weekday and time, and this information must be recorded. An office may be assigned to several faculties’ office hours at different days and times. All offices are assigned to faculty’s office hours. In the following E-R Diagram, complete the dashed lines to reflect the appropriated participation and key constraints.

Given two relations R1 and R2, where R1 contains N1 tuples and R2 contains N2 tuples, with N2>N1>0, give the minimum and maximum possible sizes (in tuples) for the resulting relation produced by each of the following relational algebra expressions. In each case, state any assumptions about the schemas for R1 and R2 needed to make the expression meaningful.

Suppose R1 and R2 are multisets of tuples (rows);N1 = number of copies of a tuple t in R1;N2 = number of copies of a tuple t in R2.

What’s the number of copies of t in

R1 UNION ALL R2 ?

Answer: N1+N2



R1 INTERSECT ALL R2 ?

Answer: min{N1,N2}

Consider the following schema:Suppliers(sid:integer, sname:string, address:string)

Parts(pid:integer, pname:string, color:string)

Catalog(sid:integer, pid:integer, cost:real)

State what the following queries compute.


The Catalog relation lists the prices charged for Parts by Suppliers.

Suppliers(sid:integer, sname:string, address:string)



Answer: Find the Supplier names of the suppliers who supply a red part that costs less then 100 dollars.




Answer: This Relational Algebra statement does not return anything because of the sequence of projection operators. Once the sid is projected, it is the only field in the set. Therefore, projecting on sname will not return anything.




Answer: Find the Supplier names of the suppliers who supply a red part that costs less than 100 dollars and a green part that costs less than 100 dollars.




Answer: Find the Supplier ids of the suppliers who supply a red part that costs less than 100 dollars and a green part that costs less than 100 dollars.




Answer: Find the Supplier names of the suppliers who supply a red part that costs less than 100 dollars and a green part that costs less than 100 dollars.

Aircraft(aid:integer, aname:string, cruisingrange:integer)Certified(eid:integer, aid:integer)Employees(eid:integer, ename:string, salary:integer)

Employees relation describes pilots and other kinds of employees as well; Every pilot is certified for some aircraft (otherwise, he/she would not qualify as a pilot);Only pilots are certified to fly.

Find the eids of employees who make the highest salary (RA only).The approach to take is: first find all employees who do not have the highest salary. Subtract these from the original list of employees and what is left is the highest paid employees.

Find the eids of employees who make the second highest salary (RA only).The approach is similar to the previous one. First find all employees who do not have the highest salary. Remove these from the original list of employees and what is left is the highest paid employees. Remove the highest paid employees from the original list. What is left is the second highest paid employees together with the rest of the employees. Then find the highest paid employees of this new list. This is the list of the second highest paid employees.
