QUESTION ONE a) Define the following terms i) Entity integrity (2Marks) ii) Referential integrity (2 Marks) iii) Database schema (2 Marks) iv) Normalization (2 Marks) b) Explain the following i) Data manipulation language (2 Marks) ii) Data Control Language (2 Marks) iii) Data Definition Language (2 Marks) c) Describe the types of update anomalies that may occur on a table that has redundant data. (4 Marks) d) i) Describe the purpose of a design methodology. (2 Marks) ii) What factors can be used to measure efficiency? (6 Marks) e) Explain what is meant by a DDBMS, and discuss the motivation in providing such a system. (4 Marks) QUESTION TWO a) Explain the following database architectures i) Single database ii) Replicated database iii) partitioned database iv) cloud based database (8 Marks) b) Draw an entity relationship diagram for the following scenario.

For simplicity, both a herbal medic and a patient will be recorded for his or her name, a herbal medicine will be recorded for its name, unit and the price per unit, and a prescription will be recorded for its date, the patient and medic, and all the herbs included in the prescription. a) For the conceptual database design phase, design your database in terms of an EntityRelationship (ER) diagram. This ER diagram should include explicitly the primary keys, the participation multiplicities for the relationship type/s. State the additional assumptions, if any, that are crucial to the design in your final ER diagram. (4 Marks) b) For the logical database design phase, map the final ER diagram into the global relation diagram. Indicate all the primary keys, foreign keys, multiplicity constraints, as well as at least the crucial attributes. (Here “crucial” is in regard to the database design, not necessarily to the needs of business information.) (3 Marks) c) Write an SQL script (of statements) that generates at least 2 tables for your designed database in above with proper primary keys and foreign keys if any. At least one of these TWO tables should contain a foreign key that is related to at least one of the tables you created via SQL here. (2 Marks) QUESTION FIVE a) Explain why it is necessary to select the target DBMS before beginning the physical database design phase. (4 Marks) b) Discuss the two main activities associated with application design. (2 Marks) c) Describe the potential benefits of developing a prototype database system. (3Marks) d) Discuss the main activities associated with the implementation stage. (3 Marks) e) Describe the purpose of creating a mission statement and mission objectives for the required database during the database planning stage. (2 Marks) f) Discuss what a user view represents when designing a database system. (2 Marks) g) Compare and contrast the centralized approach and view integration approach to managing the design of a database system with multiple user views. (4 Marks)
