Normalization:
The process used to minimize data redundancy and dependency in a relational
Second normal form (2NF):
- The value of all non-primary key attributes should be dependent on the primary key attribute.
- If any attribute is depending on the partial primary key then it should determine the other attributes for an instance of the entity.
- The partial dependencies should be removed from the data model.
Third normal form (3NF):
- The value of any non-primary key attributes will not depend on any other non-primary key attributes.
- If any non-primary key attributes depend on any other non-primary key attribute then it should be moved or deleted.
- It is termed as transitive dependency.
Partial dependency:
A partial dependency exists at that time of an attributes depends only a part of primary key. This dependency is related with 1st normal form.
Transitive dependency:
A transitive dependency exists at that time of an attributes depends on another attribute which is not part of primary key.
Functional dependency:
An association between two attributes or two set of attributes in a same relational database table, which is having some constraints is known as functional dependency.
- In a table one attribute is functionally dependent on another attribute to take one value.

Explanation of Solution
Construct the dependency diagram with all partial and transitive dependencies:
The relational schema for given INVOICE table is given below:
Invoice(INV_NUM, PROD_NUM, SALE_DATE, PROD_LABEL, VEND_CODE, VEND_NAME, QUANT_SOLD, PROD_PRICE)
- Here, “INV_NUM” and “PROD_NUM” indicates the primary key.
The representation of dependency diagram with all partial and transitive dependencies is shown below:
Explanation:
In the above dependency diagram,
- The partial dependencies are,
INV_NUM -> (SALE_DATE)
PROD_NUM -> (PROD_LABEL, VEND_CODE, VEND_NAME, PROD_PRICE)
- The transitive dependency is,
VEND_CODE -> (VEND_NAME)
b.
Normalization:
The process used to minimize data redundancy and dependency in a relational database is known as normalization. The database table is divided into two or more tables and defines the relationship between those tables.
Second normal form (2NF):
- The value of all non-primary key attributes should be dependent on the primary key attribute.
- If any attribute is depending on the partial primary key then it should determine the other attributes for an instance of the entity.
- The partial dependencies should be removed from the data model.
Third normal form (3NF):
- The value of any non-primary key attributes will not depend on any other non-primary key attributes.
- If any non-primary key attributes depend on any other non-primary key attribute then it should be moved or deleted.
- It is termed as transitive dependency.

Functional dependency:
An association between two attributes or two set of attributes in a same relational database table, which is having some constraints is known as functional dependency.
- In a table one attribute is functionally dependent on another attribute to take one value.

Explanation of Solution
Construct the dependency diagram by removing all partial dependencies:
The new dependency diagram is represented by removing all partial dependencies in INVOICE table.
First table:
The relational schema for first table is given below:
3NF(INV_NUM, PROD_NUM, SALE_DATE, QUANT_SOLD)
- Here, “INV_NUM” and “PROD_NUM” indicates the primary keys.
- The relation is in third normal form (3NF), since there is no transitive dependency and no repeated attributes.
The representation of dependency diagram removes all partial dependencies in first table are shown below:
Second table:
The relational schema for second table is given below:
3NF(INV_NUM, SALE_DATE)
- Here, “INV_NUM” indicates the primary key.
- The relation is in third normal form (3NF), since there is no transitive dependency and no repeated attributes.

Third table:
The relational schema for third table is given below:
2NF(PROD_NUM, PROD_LABEL, VEND_CODE, VEND_NAME, PROD_PRICE)
- Here, “PROD_NUM” indicates the primary key.
- The relation is in third normal form (2NF), since there is transitive dependency in table.

The Test-and-Set instruction is used in hardware to achieve synchronization. It can be defined in the following way: function Test-and-Set (var target: boolean): boolean; begin Test-and-Set:= target; target := true; end; Now show how the Test-and-Set instruction can be used to protect a critical region and hence achieve mutual exclusion (do not worry about satisfying the bounded waiting condition).

- Consider a system with three smoker processes and one agent process. Each smoker continuously rolls a cigarette and then smokes it. But to roll and smoke a cigarette, the smoker needs three ingredients: tobacco, paper and matches. One of the smoker processes has paper, another has tobacco and the third has the matches. The agent has an infinite supply of all three materials. The agent places two of the ingredients on the table. The smoker who has the remaining ingredient then makes and smokes a cigarette, signaling the agent on completion. The agent then puts out another two of the three ingredients, and the cycle repeats. Given below is a solution to the Cigarette-Smokers Problem. Give initial conditions for the semaphores as well as plausible values for the variables i & j and r & s, such that the agent and smokers are synchronized. Write a couple of sentences on why these initial conditions are necessary and sufficient.
