| Question 13 |
Consider the following database schedule with two transactions, T1 and T2.
S = r2(X); r1(X); r2(Y); w1(X); r1(Y); w2(X); a1; a2
where ri(Z) denotes a read operation by transaction Ti on a variable Z, wi(Z) denotes a write operation by Ti on a variable Z and ai denotes an abort by transaction Ti.
Which one of the following statements about the above schedule is TRUE?
S = r2(X); r1(X); r2(Y); w1(X); r1(Y); w2(X); a1; a2
where ri(Z) denotes a read operation by transaction Ti on a variable Z, wi(Z) denotes a write operation by Ti on a variable Z and ai denotes an abort by transaction Ti.
Which one of the following statements about the above schedule is TRUE?
| S is non-recoverable | |
| S is recoverable, but has a cascading abort | |
| S does not have a cascading abort | |
| S is strict |
Question 13 Explanation:
Given schedule is,
Now let’s check statements one by one,
A) False, because there is no dirty read. So, it is recoverable.
B) False, because there is to dirty read. So, no cascading aborts.
C) True.
D) False, because there is Transaction T2 which written the value of x which is written by T1 before T1 has aborted. So, not strict.
Now let’s check statements one by one,
A) False, because there is no dirty read. So, it is recoverable.
B) False, because there is to dirty read. So, no cascading aborts.
C) True.
D) False, because there is Transaction T2 which written the value of x which is written by T1 before T1 has aborted. So, not strict.
Correct Answer: C
