Define Data Definition Language.

Explanation of Solution

Data Definition language (DDL) is a computer language which is used for creating and modifying databases and schemas. The commonly used DDL commands are CREATE, ALTER, and DROP.

  • CREATE command is used to create a new table with the following syntax
  • Create table: Table name (Column definitions).

  • ALTER command is used to modify the existing table. The syntax is:
  • Alter table: Table name add new column.

  • DROP command is used to delete a table. The syntax is:
  • Drop table: Table name

Define Data Manipulation Language.

Explanation of Solution

Data Manipulation Language is a computer language used in data structures to modify the data in the databases. The most commonly used data manipulation commands are INSERT, DELETE and UPDATE.

  • INSERT command is used to add records in the database. The syntax for INSERT command is:
  • Insert into table Table name (columns) values (values)

  • DELETE command is used to delete records from the table according to the condition. Syntax is:
  • Delete from table Table name where (condition)

  • UPDATE command is used to update the records in the database. Syntax is:
  • Update Table name set (column = value) where (condition)

Define referential integrity constraint

Explanation of Solution

Refential Integrity constraint is the concept used in a relational database which ensures that the tables in the database are in a consistent state. This statement means that if there is any foreign key used in the database, it must be agreed with the primary key which is referenced from that foreign key. Any changes in the primary key must be updated in the foreign key as well.

Define Relational DBMS

Explanation of Solution

Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) is a type of DBMS which is used for the data stored in relational databases in the form of tables (combination of rows and columns). RDBMS is mainly used to store the data related to manufacturing, finance, logistic, and other applications. It uses SQL commands to access the databases.

Define Schema

Explanation of Solution

Schema is a structure or architecture of the database which is supported by the DBMS. It is considered as the blueprint of how the database is constructed. The schema is stored in the data dictionary generally by the database. It defines the objects in the databases.

6.3A-3. Multiple Access protocols (3). Consider the figure below, which shows the arrival of 6 messages for transmission at different multiple access wireless nodes at times t=0.1, 1.4, 1.8, 3.2, 3.3, 4.1. Each transmission requires exactly one time unit. 1 t=0.0 2 3 45 t=1.0 t-2.0 t-3.0 6 t=4.0 t-5.0 For the CSMA protocol (without collision detection), indicate which packets are successfully transmitted. You should assume that it takes .2 time units for a signal to propagate from one node to each of the other nodes. You can assume that if a packet experiences a collision or senses the channel busy, then that node will not attempt a retransmission of that packet until sometime after t=5. Hint: consider propagation times carefully here. (Note: You can find more examples of problems similar to this here B.] ☐ U ப 5 - 3 1 4 6 2
Just wanted to know, if you had a scene graph, how do you get multiple components from a specific scene node within a scene graph? Like if I wanted to get a component from wheel from the scene graph, does that require traversing still?   Like if a physics component requires a transform component and these two component are part of the same scene node. How does the physics component knows how to get the scene object's transform it is attached to, this being in a scene graph?
