Explanation of Solution

Many-to-many relationship (N:M):

Many-to-many relationship is one of the types of binary relationship that refers to the relationship that is laid between the two entities which means that many records in a table are associated with many records in another table.

Example:

In a library database, each book may have one or more author and each author may have written many books.

IE crow’s foot ER diagram:

Information Engineering is a method to represent the relationship between the entities. It uses crow’s foot to denote the many sides of a relationship. Hence, it is referred to as IE crow’s feet ER diagram.

  • Relational database system will not allow the user to implement a direct many-to-many relationship. Therefore, the many-to-many relationship will break into two one-to-many relationships the using third table and it is called “intersection table”...

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.
