Chapter 14, Problem 22E

Explanation of Solution

Given scenario:

  • In the given case, a relation which is stored in a B+-tree file...

Explanation of Solution

a)

If a node split takes place in B+-tree file organization:

  • Some records are moved to a new page...

Explanation of Solution

b)

While determining the cost of updating all the affected records in a secondary index, keep in mind that:

  • Each leaf page will contain a large number of records.
  • Also, each record will be in different locations on each secondary index...

Explanation of Solution

c)

With the use of search key of the file organization as a logical record identifier resolves the above issue as:

  • The value of primary-index search key attribute is...

Explanation of Solution

d)

Using the above logical records identifier also has some extra cost associated with it:

  • In the given case, two steps are required to locate the record using the secondary index;
  • In the first step, find the primary index search-key value from the secondary index...

We are considering the RSA encryption scheme. The involved numbers are small, so the communication is insecure.  Alice's public key (n,public_key) is (247,7). A code breaker manages to factories  247 = 13 x 19  Determine Alice's secret key. To solve the problem, you need not use the extended Euclid algorithm, but you may assume that her private key is one of the following numbers 31,35,55,59,77,89.
Consider the following Turing Machine (TM). Does the TM halt if it begins on the empty tape? If it halts, after how many steps? Does the TM halt if it begins on a tape that contains a single letter A followed by blanks? Justify your answer.
