Explanation of Solution

Real-time systems using concurrent processes:

A real-time system is one where it has to respond within certain time limits.

Real time systems usually have to be implemented using concurrent processes due to the different types of stakeholder concern and the aspects supporting their implementation.

The different types of stakeholder concern and the aspects supporting their implementation are:

  • Functional concerns are related to the specific functionality to be included in a system. The base system should implement core functionality and extensions implemented as aspects that can implement secondary functionality.
  • Quality of service concern is related to non-functional behaviour of the system and aspects may be used to implement cross-cutting functionality such as cache which helps to meet these requirements.
  •  Policy concerns are related to overall policies that govern the use of system and by representing cross-cutting concerns as aspects which can be implemented.
  • System concerns are related to attributes of the system as a whole and aspects may be used to implement monitoring that checks system attributes.
  • Organizational concerns are related to organizational goals and priorities, aspects have limited usefulness in implementing these types of concerns.

A company database needs to store information about employees (identified by SIN, with salary and phone as attributes), departments (identified by DID, with dname and budget as attributes), and children of employees (with name and age as attributes). Employees work in departments; each department is managed by an employee; a child must be identified uniquely by name when the parent (who is an employee; assume that only one parent works for the company) is known. We are not interested in information about a child once the parent leaves the company. Draw an ER diagram using Crows Foot notation that captures this information. Important: Must submit both ER Diagram and Relational Schema images in your solution here.
Given the dependency diagram of attributes C1,C2,C3,C4,C5 in a table shown in the following figure, the primary key attributes are underlined.   Make a database with multiple tables from attributes as shown above that are in 3NF, showing PK, non-key attributes, and FK for each table? Assume the tables are already in 1NF. Hint: 3 tables will result after deducing 1NF -> 2NF -> 3NF]
1. Using one of the method described in class and/or textbook (Section 9.1) convert the following regular expression into a state transition diagram: (0+ 10*1)* (01 + 10) Indicate in your answer how did you arrive at the result as follows: Write down all the state transition diagrams that you constructed for all the subexpressions and clearly indicate which diagram corresponds to which expression. Do not simplify any state transition diagram. 2. Consider the following state transition diagram over Σ = {a,b}: b A a a C b B a a b D За a Using the method described in class and in the textbook (Section 9.2) convert the diagram into an equivalent regular expression. Include all the intermediate steps in your answer. 3. Are the languages L1, L2, and L3 below over the alphabet Σ = {a, b, c} regular or non-regular? Justify your answer carefully. (a) L₁ = {a¹b2jc²i : i ≥ 0, j > 2} (b) L₂ = L₁n {akbm c³p: k,m,p≥ 0} (c) L3 = {a²ib²j+1 : i,j ≥ 0}^{akbm c³p : k,m,p ≥ 0}
