Adbms 22 dynamic multi level index using b and b+ treeVaibhav Khanna
A single-level index is an auxiliary file that makes it more efficient to search for a record in the data file.
The index is usually specified on one field of the file (although it could be specified on several fields)
One form of an index is a file of entries <field value, pointer to record>, which is ordered by field value
The index is called an access path on the field

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Indexes as Access Paths
A single-level index is an auxiliary file that makes it
more efficient to search for a record in the data
file.
The index is usually specified on one field of the
file (although it could be specified on several
fields)
One form of an index is a file of entries <field
value, pointer to record>, which is ordered by
field value
The index is called an access path on the field.
Ritu CHaturvedi
Figures adapted from Fundamentals of Database
Systems By Elmasri and Navathe
5. 5
Indexes as Access Paths (contd.)
The index file usually occupies considerably less
disk blocks than the data file because its entries
are much smaller
A binary search on the index yields a pointer to
the file record
Indexes can also be characterized as dense or
sparse.
A dense index has an index entry for every search
key value (and hence every record) in the data file.
A sparse (or nondense) index, on the other hand,
has index entries for only some of the search values

Example: Given the following data file:
EMPLOYEE(NAME, SSN, ADDRESS, JOB, SAL, ... )
Suppose that:
record size R=150 bytes
block size B=512 bytes
r=30000 records
Then, we get:
blocking factor Bfr= B div R= 512 div 150= 3 records/block
number of file blocks b= (r/Bfr)= (30000/3)= 10000 blocks
For an index on the SSN field, assume the field size VSSN=9 bytes,
assume the record pointer size PR=7 bytes. Then:
index entry size RI=(VSSN+ PR)=(9+7)=16 bytes
index blocking factor BfrI= B div RI= 512 div 16= 32 entries/block
number of index blocks b= (r/ BfrI)= (30000/32)= 938 blocks
binary search needs log2bI= log2938= 10 block accesses
This is compared to an average linear search cost of:
(b/2)= 30000/2= 15000 block accesses
If the file records are ordered, the binary search cost would be:
log2b= log230000= 15 block accesses

Types of Single-Level Indexes
Primary Index
Defined on an ordered data file
The data file is ordered on a key field
Includes one index entry for each block in the data file; the
index entry has the key field value for the first record in the
block, which is called the block anchor
A similar scheme can use the last record in a block.
A primary index is a nondense (sparse) index, since it
includes an entry for each disk block of the data file and the
keys of its anchor record rather than for every search value.

Types of Single-Level Indexes
Clustering Index
Defined on an ordered data file
The data file is ordered on a non-key field unlike primary
index, which requires that the ordering field of the data file
have a distinct value for each record.
Includes one index entry for each distinct value of the field;
the index entry points to the first data block that contains
records with that field value.
It is another example of nondense index where Insertion and
Deletion is relatively straightforward with a clustering index.

Types of Single-Level Indexes
Secondary Index
A secondary index provides a secondary means of accessing a file for
which some primary access already exists.
The secondary index may be on a field which is a candidate key and
has a unique value in every record, or a nonkey with duplicate values.
The index is an ordered file with two fields.
The first field is of the same data type as some nonordering
field of the data file that is an indexing field.
The second field is either a block pointer or a record pointer.
There can be many secondary indexes (and hence, indexing
fields) for the same file.
Includes one entry for each record in the data file; hence, it is a
dense index

Multi-Level Indexes
Because a single-level index is an ordered file, we can create a
primary index to the index itself ; in this case, the original index
file is called the first-level index and the index to the index is
called the second-level index.
We can repeat the process, creating a third, fourth, ..., top level
until all entries of the top level fit in one disk block
A multi-level index can be created for any type of first-level
index (primary, secondary, clustering) as long as the first-level
index consists of more than one disk block

Multi-Level Indexes
Such a multi-level index is a form of search tree ;
however, insertion and deletion of new index entries is
a severe problem because every level of the index is an
ordered file.

Dynamic Multilevel Indexes Using B-
Trees and B+-Trees
Because of the insertion and deletion problem, most multi-level
indexes use B-tree or B+-tree data structures, which leave space
in each tree node (disk block) to allow for new index entries
These data structures are variations of search trees that allow
efficient insertion and deletion of new search values.
In B-Tree and B+-Tree data structures, each node corresponds to
a disk block
Each node is kept between half-full and completely full
Ritu CHaturvedi

Systems By Elmasri and Navathe
22. 22
Dynamic Multilevel Indexes Using B-
Trees and B+-Trees (contd.)
An insertion into a node that is not full is quite efficient; if a
node is full the insertion causes a split into two nodes
Splitting may propagate to other tree levels
A deletion is quite efficient if a node does not become less than
half full
If a deletion causes a node to become less than half full, it must
be merged with neighboring nodes
Ritu CHaturvedi
Figures adapted from Fundamentals of Database
Systems By Elmasri and Navathe
23. 23
Difference between B-tree and B+-tree
In a B-tree, pointers to data records exist at all levels of the tree
In a B+-tree, all pointers to data records exists at the leaf-level
nodes
A B+-tree can have less levels (or higher capacity of search
values) than the corresponding B-tree

Analyze transactions
To understand functionality of the transactions
and to analyze the important ones.
Identify performance criteria, such as:
transactions that run frequently and will have a
significant impact on performance;
transactions that are critical to the business;
times during the day/week when there will be a
high demand made on the database (called the
peak load).

Choose file organizations
To determine an efficient file organization for
each base table.
File organizations include Heap, Hash, Indexed

Clusters.
Some DBMSs (particularly PC-based DBMS) have
fixed file organization that you cannot alter.

improve the performance of the system.
One approach is to keep records unordered and create
as many secondary indexes as necessary.
Ritu CHaturvedi
Figures adapted from Fundamentals of Database

31. 31
Choose indexes
Or could order records in table by specifying a primary
or clustering index.
In this case, choose the column for ordering or
clustering the records as:
column that is used most often for join operations - this
makes join operation more efficient, or
column that is used most often to access the records in a
table in order of that column.
Ritu CHaturvedi
Figures adapted from Fundamentals of Database
Systems By Elmasri and Navathe
32. 32
Choose indexes
If ordering column chosen is key of table, index will be
a primary index; otherwise, index will be a clustering
index.
Each table can only have either a primary index or a
clustering index.
Secondary indexes provide additional keys for a base
table that can be used to retrieve data more efficiently.

Choose indexes – Guidelines for
choosing ‘wish-list’
(1) Do not index small tables.
(2) Add secondary index to any column that is heavily
used as a secondary key.
(3) Add secondary index to a FK if it is frequently
accessed.
(4) Add secondary index on columns that are involved in:
selection or join criteria; ORDER BY; GROUP BY;
and other operations involving sorting (such as UNION
or DISTINCT).

Choose indexes – Guidelines for
choosing ‘wish-list’
(5) Add secondary index on columns involved in built-in
functions.
(6) Add secondary index on columns that could result in
an index-only plan.
(7) Avoid indexing an column or table that is frequently
updated.
(8) Avoid indexing an column if the query will retrieve a
significant proportion of the records in the table.
(9) Avoid indexing columns that consist of long character
strings.
