2.
1. REDO is never necessary following system failure.
2. Physical UNDO is never necessary, and hence UNDO logs are also
unnecessary.
3.
1. Recovery after a program/hardware failure is fast. The risk of a serious
data loss is reduced.
2. Sequential access to the data - eg., via an index, is not efficient.
4. "Query B" will (always?) result in smaller size tables (subsets of A and B)
being joined (cartesian product) and thus smaller table on which restriction is
applied. Look out for overall I/O and comparison operations.
5. Yes. A possibility exists with queries like the one given below.
Q1 : How many male PUCSD teachers aged between 38 and 42 are there, who
are MCA graduates from PUCSD and expert in Functional Programming?
Q2 : What is the average salary of male PUCSD teachers aged between 38 and
42, who are MCA graduates from PUCSD and expert in Functional
Programming?
If answer to query Q1 is one and Rustom matches the criteria of this query, we
will get salary of Rustom via query Q2.
6. Ext3 is a logging based (journalling) flesystem.
