The document summarizes a lecture on relational algebra and calculus. It defines relational algebra as a theoretical language used to query databases using operations that work on relations. It describes the five fundamental relational algebra operations and additional join, division, and aggregate operations. It then defines relational calculus as specifying what to retrieve from a database rather than how, and describes tuple and domain relational calculus using predicates, quantifiers, and tuple variables.
Database normalization is the process of refining the data in accordance with a series of normal forms. This is done to reduce data redundancy and improve data integrity. This process divides large tables into small tables and links them using relationships.

The normal forms (NF) of relational database theory provide criteria for determining a table’s degree of vulnerability to logical inconsistencies and anomalies.
Dbms architecture
Three level architecture is also called ANSI/SPARC architecture or three schema architecture
This framework is used for describing the structure of specific database systems (small systems may not support all aspects of the architecture)
In this architecture the database schemas can be defined at three levels explained in next slide

Everything we see is distributed on some scale. Some people are tall, some short and some are neither tall nor short. Once we find out how many are tall, short or middle heighted we get to know how people are distributed when it comes to height. This distribution can also be of chances. For example, we throw, 100 times, an unbalanced dice and find out how many times 1,2,3,4,5 or 6 appeared on top. This knowledge of distribution plays an important role in empirical work.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

5. Relational Algebra
It is a language in which we can ask questions (query) to a database.
The relational algebra is a theoretical language with operations that
work on one or more relations to define another relation without
changing the original relation(s).
There are many variations of the operations that are included in
relational algebra. Codd (1972) originally proposed eight operations, but
several others have been developed.
The five fundamental operations in relational algebra are Selection,
Projection, Cartesian product, Union, and Set difference, perform most
of the data retrieval operations that we are interested in.
5
6. In addition, there are also the Join, Intersection, and Division Operations,
which can be expressed in terms of the five basic operations. The function
of each operation is illustrated in Figure 4.1 on next slide.
The Selection and Projection operations are Unary Operations, since they
operate on one relation.
The other operations work on pairs of relations and are therefore called
Binary Operations.
In the following definitions on next slides, let R and S be two
relations/tables defined over the attributes:
A = (a1, a2, . . . , aN) and B = (b1, b2, . . . , bM), respectively.

54. Relational Calculus
In the relational calculus, there is no description of how to
evaluate a query; a relational calculus query specifies what is to
be retrieved rather than how to retrieve it.
The relational calculus is not related to differential and integral
calculus in mathematics, but takes its name from a branch of
symbolic logic called predicate calculus. When applied to
databases, it is found in two forms: tuple relational calculus, as
originally proposed by Codd (1972), and domain relational
calculus, as proposed by Lacroix and Pirotte (1977).
54
55. In first-order logic or predicate calculus, a predicate is a truth-
valued function with arguments. When we substitute values for
the arguments, the function yields an expression, called a
proposition, which can be either true or false.
For example, the sentences, ‘John White is a member of
staff’ and ‘John White earns more than Ann Beech’ are both
propositions, since we can determine whether they are true or
false. In the first case, we have a function, ‘is a member of staff’,
with one argument (John White); in the second case, we have a
function, ‘earns more than’, with two arguments (John White and
Ann Beech).
55
Continued…
56. If a predicate contains a variable, as in ‘x is a member of
staff’, there must be an associated rangefor x. When we
substitute some values of this range for x, the proposition may
be true; for other values, it may be false.
For example, if the range is the set of all people
and we replace x by John White, the proposition ‘John White is a
member of staff’ is true. If we replace x by the name of a person
who is not a member of staff, the proposition is false.
56
Continued…
57. If P is a Predicate/Condition, then we can write the set of all x
such that P is true for x, as:
{x | P(x)}
We may connect predicates by the logical connectives:
∧ (AND), ∨ (OR), and ~ (NOT) to form compound predicates
57
Continued…
58. In the tuple relational calculus we are interested in finding tuples
for which a predicate is true. The calculus is based on the use of
tuple variables. A tuple variable is a variable that ‘ranges over’ a
named relation: that is, a variable whose only allowable values
are tuples of the relation. For example, to specify the range of a
tuple variable S as the Staff relation, we write:
Staff(S)
To express the query ‘Find the set of all tuples S such that
F(S) is true’, we can write:
{S | F(S)}
58
Tuple Relational Calculus
59. F is called a formula (well-formed formula).
For example, to express the query ‘Find the staffNo,
fName, lName, position, DOB, salary, and branchNo of all staff
earning more than £10,000’, we can write:
{S | Staff(S) ∧ S.salary > 10000}
S.salary means the value of the salary attribute for the tuple
variable S. To retrieve a particular attribute, such as salary, we
would write:
{S.salary | Staff(S) ∧ S.salary > 10000}
59
Continued…
60. There are two quantifiers we can use with formulae to tell how many
instances the predicate applies to. The existential quantifier ∃ (‘there
exists’) is used in formulae that must be true for at least one instance,
such as:
Staff(S) ∧ (∃B) (Branch(B) ∧ (B.branchNo = S.branchNo) ∧ B.city = ‘London’)
This means, ‘There exists a Branch tuple that has the same branchNo
as the branchNo of the current Staff tuple, S, and is located in London’.
The universal quantifier ∀ (‘for all’) is used in statements about every
instance, such as:
(∀B) (B.city ≠ ‘Paris’)
This means, ‘For all Branch tuples, the address is not in Paris’.
60
The Existential and Universal Quantifiers
61. Tuple variables that are qualified by ∀ or ∃ are called bound variables,
otherwise the tuple variables are called free variables. The only free variables
in a relational calculus expression should be those on the left side of the bar ( |
). For example, in the following query:
{S.fName, S.lName | Staff(S) ∧ (∃B) (Branch(B) ∧ (B.branchNo = S.branchNo) ∧ B.city = ‘London’)}
S is the only free variable and S is then bound successively to each tuple of Staff.
