PART B(1 X 7.5 = 7.5)

11.a List the components of Storage Manager and Query processor 7.5 L2 1 1 1.7.1
and explain them

In a Database Management System (DBMS), the Storage

Manager and Query Processor are two essential components
responsible for managing data storage and handling queries,
respectively.

Storage Manager Components:

1. Data Files:

- Description: Physical storage on disk where the actual data

is stored.

- Function: Organizes and stores data in a structured format,

usually in tables.

2. Buffer Manager:

- Description: Manages a buffer pool in memory for

frequently accessed data.

- Function: Minimizes disk I/O operations by keeping

frequently used data in memory, improving overall system
performance.

3. File Organization Module:

- Description: Determines how data is organized and stored

within data files.

- Function: Defines the structure of data storage, such as

indexing, sorting, and clustering, to optimize retrieval and
storage efficiency.

4. Disk Space Manager:

- Description: Manages the allocation and deallocation of

space on disk for data storage.

- Function: Ensures efficient utilization of disk space and

handles tasks like space allocation, deallocation, and file
expansion.

5. Storage Interface:

- Description: Provides an interface for interaction between

the DBMS and the operating system's file system.

- Function: Manages communication and data transfer

between the DBMS and the physical storage layer.

Query Processor Components:

1. Query Parser:

- Description: Analyzes and validates the syntax of SQL

queries.

- Function: Breaks down queries into components and checks

their syntax, ensuring they conform to the language rules.

2. Query Optimizer:

- Description:Determines the most efficient way to execute a

query.

- Function: Analyzes various execution plans and selects the

one with the least cost, optimizing query performance.

3. Query Executor:

- Description: Executes the optimized query plan generated

by the query optimizer.

- Function:Coordinates the retrieval and manipulation of data

based on the optimized plan, interacting with the Storage
 Manager to access and modify data.

4. Transaction Manager:

- Description: Ensures the consistency and integrity of

transactions.

- Function: Manages the execution of transactions, including

the beginning, committing, or rolling back of transactions to
maintain the database's integrity.

5. Concurrency Control Manager:

- Description: Handles simultaneous access to the database by

multiple transactions.

- Function: Enforces isolation among transactions to prevent

interference and conflicts, ensuring consistency and
correctness.

6. Database Scheduler:

- Description: Coordinates the execution of various tasks and

transactions.

- Function: Manages the scheduling of concurrent tasks and

transactions to optimize resource utilization and maintain
system efficiency.

Both the Storage Manager and Query Processor work together

to ensure the efficient storage, retrieval, and manipulation of
data within a database system. Their coordination is crucial for
maintaining the integrity, security, and performance of the
database.

11.b Describe in detail about Relational Data model and design the 7.5 L3 1 1 1.7.1
relational data model for online movie ticket system.

Relational Data Model:

The relational data model is a database model based on the

mathematical concept of a relation, which is essentially a table
with rows and columns. In this model, data is organized into
tables, and relationships between tables are established using
keys. The primary components of the relational data model
include:

1. Table (Relation):

- Represents an entity, and each row in the table represents an

instance of that entity.

- Columns in the table represent attributes or properties of the

entity.

- Each table has a unique name.

2. Attribute (Field):

- Represents a property or characteristic of an entity.

- Corresponds to a column in a table.

3. Tuple (Row):

- Represents a single instance or record in a table.

- Contains values for each attribute defined in the table.

4. Key:

- Uniquely identifies a tuple within a table.

- Primary key: A unique identifier for each tuple in a table.

- Foreign key: A field in one table that refers to the primary

key of another table, establishing a relationship.

5. Relationship:

- Defines connections between tables using keys.

- Common types include one-to-one, one-to-many, and many-

to-many relationships.

Relational Data Model for an Online Movie Ticket System:

Let's design a simplified relational data model for an Online

Movie Ticket System. We'll consider entities such as Movies,
Cinemas, Users, and Bookings.

1. Movies Table:

- Attributes: MovieID (Primary Key), Title, Genre,

ReleaseDate, Duration.

2. Cinemas Table:

- Attributes: CinemaID (Primary Key), Name, Location,

Capacity.

3. Users Table:

- Attributes: UserID (Primary Key), FirstName, LastName,

Email, Password.

4. Bookings Table:

- Attributes: BookingID (Primary Key), UserID (Foreign

Key), MovieID (Foreign Key), CinemaID (Foreign Key), Date,
Time, TotalAmount.

- Explanation:

- The `Movies` and `Cinemas` tables store information about

movies and cinema locations.

- The `Users` table contains details about the users of the

system.

- The `Bookings` table is the central table, linking users,

movies, and cinemas through foreign keys. It stores booking
information, including the date, time, and total amount.

Example SQL Schema:

CREATE TABLE Movies (

MovieID INT PRIMARY KEY,

Title VARCHAR(255),

Genre VARCHAR(50),

ReleaseDate DATE,

Duration INT

);

CREATE TABLE Cinemas (

CinemaID INT PRIMARY KEY,

Name VARCHAR(100),

Location VARCHAR(255),

Capacity INT

);

CREATE TABLE Users (

UserID INT PRIMARY KEY,

FirstName VARCHAR(50),

LastName VARCHAR(50),

Email VARCHAR(255),

Password VARCHAR(50)

);

CREATE TABLE Bookings (

BookingID INT PRIMARY KEY,

UserID INT,

MovieID INT,
 CinemaID INT,

Date DATE,

Time TIME,

TotalAmount DECIMAL(10, 2),

FOREIGN KEY (UserID) REFERENCES Users(UserID),

FOREIGN KEY (MovieID) REFERENCES

Movies(MovieID),

FOREIGN KEY (CinemaID) REFERENCES

Cinemas(CinemaID)

);

```

This schema represents a basic structure for an Online Movie

Ticket System, providing the foundation for managing movies,
cinemas, users, and bookings. Additional considerations, such
as seats, payment details, and real-world constraints, would be
essential for a fully functional system.
