Database Assignment
Write relational algebra expression for the following queries

Use the following schema for question 1-5

Suppliers(sID, sName, address)

Parts(pID, pName, colour)

Catalog(sID, pID, price)

1. Find the names of all red parts


 ΠpName(σcolour = “red”Parts)
2. Find all prices for parts that are red or green. (A part may have different
prices from different manufacturers.)
 Πprice((σcolour = “red” V colour = “green” Parts)⨝
Catalog)
3. Find the sIDs of all suppliers who supply a part that is red or green.
 πsid ((σcolor= “red” V color= “green” Parts ) ⨝Catalog )
4. Find the names of all suppliers who supply a part that is red or green.
 ΠsName((ΠsID((σcolour = “red”V colour = “green” Parts)
⨝Catalog)) ⨝Suppliers)
5. Find the sIDs of all suppliers who supply a part that is red and green.
 Each tuple has only one colour, and each part has only one tuple
(since pID is a key), so no part can be recorded as both red and green.

Use the following schema for question 6

Clients(cID, name, phone)

Staff(sID, name)

Appointments(cID, date, time, service, sID)


6. Find the appointment time and client name of all appointments for staff
member Giuliano on Feb14. (assume that = can be used also to compare
date)
 Πname,time((ΠCID,SID,timeσdate=“Feb14”Appointments) ⨝
(ΠSIDσname=“Giuliano”Staff) ⨝ Clients)
