Explanation of Solution

ACID:

The acronym stands for “Atomicity”, “Consistency”, “Isolation” and “Durability”. It is an important concept of DBMS which allows sharing of data safely. It is applied to all the transactions.

Atomicity:

Atomicity describes the first ACID property. This phase in atomicity specifies “all or nothing” that is when an update occurs either all the transactions are committed to the database or none of the transactions get updated in the database.

  • Only a fragment of the update cannot be done into the database.
  • It is retained in the presence of deadlocks
  • It is maintained in the presence of database software failure or the application software failure.
  • It is carried over when there is a disk failure or CPU failure.

Consistency:

This ensures that the transaction proceeds to the valid state of data or if any failure occurs it returns all the data to its state at the point where the transaction begins...

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.
