Explanation of Solution

Query:

Select title from where dept_name= ‘Comp.Sci’ and credits=3

Explanation:

  • In the above query, “Select”, “from”, and “where” are the keywords in Structured Query Language (SQL).
  • This query selects the title of courses where department matches with “Comp.Sci” department and credits is equal to “3”.

b.

Explanation of Solution

Query:

Select distinct student.ID from (student join takes using (ID)) join (instructor join teaches using(ID)) using(course_id,sec_id,semester,year) where instructor.name= ‘Einstein’

Explanation:

  • In the above query, “Select”, “distinct”, “from”, “join”, “using” and “where” are the keywords in Structured Query Language (SQL).
  • In this query, the join operation is performed between student and instructor table using the ID’s.
  • Then it retrieves the fields such as course id, section id, semester and year of the student. In that fields, select the distinct student ID taught by the instructor name “Einstein”.

c.

Explanation of Solution

Query:

Select max(salary) from instructor

Explanation:

  • In the above query, “Select”, “from”, and “max” are the keywords in Structured Query Language (SQL).
  • This query selects the maximum salary of the instructor from instructor table.

d.

Explanation of Solution

Query:

Select ID,name from instructor where salary=(select max(salary) from instructor)

Explanation:

  • In the above query, “Select”, “from”, and “where” are the keywords in Structured Query Language (SQL).
  • This query selects the ID and name from the instructor table where salary is equal to maximum salary from the instructor table.

e.

Explanation of Solution

Query:

Select course_id,sec_id,count(ID) from section natural join takes where semester= ‘Fall’ and year=2017 group by course_id, sec_id

Explanation:

  • In the above query, “Select”, “from”, “natural join”, “group by” and “where” are the keywords in Structured Query Language (SQL).
  • This query selects the course id, section id and count of enrollment of each section where semester is “Fall” season and year is “2017”.

f.

Explanation of Solution

Query:

Select max(enrollment) from (select count(ID) as enrollment from section natural join takes where semester= ‘Fall’ and year=2017 group by course_id, sec_id)

Explanation:

  • In the above query, “Select”, “from”, “natural join”, “group by” and “where” are the keywords in Structured Query Language (SQL).
  • This query selects the number of IDs from enrolment sections where semester is “Fall” season and year is “2017”.
  • After selecting number of IDs, select the maximum enrollment from all section.

g.

Explanation of Solution

Query:

With sec_enrollment as (select course_id,sec_id,count(ID) from section natural join takes where semester= ‘Fall’ and year=2017 group by course_id, sec_id)

Select course_id,sec_id from sec_enrollment where enrollment=(select max(enrollment) from sec_enrollment)

Explanation:

  • In the above query, “Select”, “from”, “natural join”, “group by” and “where” are the keywords in Structured Query Language (SQL).
  • This first inner query selects the number of IDs from enrolment sections where semester is “Fall” season and year is “2017”.
    • After selecting number of IDs, select the maximum enrollment from all section.
    • It is stored in temporary view as “sec_enrollment”.
  • Next the second inner query selects the maximum enrollment from “sec_enrollment” which displays the section id, course id from the table.

Objective Implement Bottom-Up Iterative MergeSort and analyze its efficiency compared to recursive MergeSort. Unlike the recursive approach, which involves multiple function calls and stack overhead, the bottom-up version sorts iteratively by merging small subarrays first, reducing recursion depth and improving performance. Task 1. Implement Bottom-Up Iterative MergeSort о Start with single-element subarrays and iteratively merge them into larger sorted sections. Use a loop-based merging process instead of recursion. ○ Implement an efficient in-place merging strategy if possible. 2. Performance Analysis Compare execution time with recursive MergeSort on random, nearly sorted, and reversed datasets. ○ Measure and plot time complexity vs. input size. O Submission Explain why the iterative version reduces function call overhead and when it performs better. • Code implementation with comments. • A short report (1-2 pages) comparing performance. • Graph of execution time vs. input size for…
Given a shared data set, we allow multiple readers to read at the same time, and only one single writer can access the shared data at the same time. In the lecture slides, a solution is given. However, the problem is that the write cannot write forever, if there are always at least one reader. How to ensure that the writer can eventually write? Propose your solution by using semaphores and implemented in Python from threading import Thread, Semaphore from time import sleep from sys import stdout class Reader(Thread): def__init__(self, name): self.n=name; Thread.__init__(self) defrun(self): globalnr, nw, dr, dw whileTrue: # ⟨await nw == 0 then nr += 1⟩ e.acquire() ifnw>0: #if nw > 0 or dw > 0 : dr+=1; e.release(); r.acquire() nr+=1 ifdr>0: dr-=1; r.release() else: e.release() # read data stdout.write(self.n+' reading\n') sleep(1) # ⟨nr -= 1⟩ e.acquire() nr-=1 ifnr==0anddw>0: dw-=1 ; w.release() else: e.release() class Writer(Thread): def__init__(self, name):…
