Questions On Conflict Serializable - EDUGRABS

The document discusses questions related to determining whether transaction schedules are conflict serializable. It provides the definitions of conflict serializable and presents the steps to check for conflict serialization. It then works through 6 examples of transaction schedules involving reads and writes of different data items. For each schedule, it identifies the conflict pairs, draws the dependency graph and determines if the schedule is conflict serializable or not based on whether a cycle is present in the graph.
