Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 2, Problem 12E
Explanation of Solution
a.
Primary Key:
- A primary key is a special column of a relation used for uniquely identifying a relation.
- The primary key can be one column or combination of columns. The primary key will uniquely identify all the records of a table.
- The features of a primary are:
- The primary key contains a unique value for each row of data.
- The primary key column cannot contain null values.
The appropriate primary keys for each relation:
Relation name | Primary key |
branch | branch_name |
customer | customer_name |
loan | loan_number |
borrower | customer_... |
Explanation of Solution
b.
Foreign key:
- A foreign key is an attribute/column which is used for establishing relationship between two tables/relations.
- A foreign key must be primary key of the table to which it is referring.
The appropriate foreign keys are as follows:
Relation name | Foreign key |
loan | branch_name |
borrower | customer_name, loan_number |
account | branch_name |
depositor | customer_name, account_number |
Explanation:
- In loan relation, branch_name is a foreign key...

Dijkstra's Algorithm (part 1). Consider the network shown below, and Dijkstra’s link-state algorithm. Here, we are interested in computing the least cost path from node E (note: the start node here is E) to all other nodes using Dijkstra's algorithm. Using the algorithm statement used in the textbook and its visual representation, complete the "Step 0" row in the table below showing the link state algorithm’s execution by matching the table entries (i), (ii), (iii), and (iv) with their values. Write down your final [correct] answer, as you‘ll need it for the next question.
