Program Plan Intro

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.

First normal form (1NF):

  • If a table does not contain any replicate fields or groups of fields then that model is called as first normal form.
  • In this form, entities do not contain any single instance of the repeating variable.
    • It means that the entities contain only one instance of the attributes, multi-valued attributes are neglected.

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.

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?
