1. Apply the following algorithm to the B+-tree shown in Fig. 4 to store it in a data file. Trace the computation process.

Algorithm:

push(root, -1, -1);while (S is not empty) do{ x := pop( );

store x.data in file F;assume that the address of x in F is ad;if x.address-of-parent -1 then {

y := x.address-of-parent;z := x.position;write ad in page y at position z in F;

}let x1, …, xk be the children of v;for (i = k to 1) {push(xi, ad, i)};

}

2. Write an algorithm to transform a simplified XPath expression (in which the subexpressions in any condition can be connected only with , e.g., /StarMovieData/Star[//City = “Malibu” and //Street = “123 Maple St.”]/Name) to a tree structure.

/StarMovieData/Star[//City = “Malibu”]/Name

/a/b[//c = “Malibu” and //d = 5]/e

Assume that an XPath is stored in a character array A:

/ a / b [ / / c “ M a l i b “ a n d …

When we scan A, we will meet the following different cases:‘/’ followed by a character,‘//’,‘[’Comparison symbols: ‘=’, ‘<’, ‘>’, ‘<>’, ‘≠’



Before we scan A, a virtual root r is created.

Algorithm tree-generation(A):

Scan array A;If A[i] is ‘/’ followed by a character, create a nodeP labeled with the string A[i+1..j] such that A[j+1]is ‘/’,‘[‘, or a comparison symbol. i := j + 1.Make p a /-child of r. r := p.

If A[i..i+1] = ‘//’, create a nodeP labeled with the string A[i+2..j] such that A[j+1]is ‘/’,‘[‘, or a comparison symbol. i := j + 1.Make p a //-child of r. r := p.



If A[i] is a comparison symbol, create a node p forthe value. Make p a child of r. Label the edge withthe symbol.

If A[i] = ‘[’, recognize the conditions C between the‘[‘ and the matching ‘]’ following A[i]. Assume that itis A[j]. Let C = path1 and path2 and … and pathk.Do the following:

for a = 1 to k do{ call tree-generation(patha);

assume that Ta be the subtree created by therecursive call; make it a subtree of r;

} i := j + 1.

If i = n + 1, remove the virtual node and return thetree.



3. (a) Represent the following graph as an XML document.

(b) The following is a DTD for books. Please produce an XML document conforming to the DTD.

<!DOCTYPE AuthorBook [<!ELEMENT AuthorBook (Author*, Book*)><!ELEMENT Author (Name, Address+)>

<!ATTLIST AuthorAuthorId ID #REQUIREDwriting INREFS #IMPLIED

><!ELEMENT Name (#PCDATA)><!ELEMENT Address (Street, City)><!ELEMNT Street (#PCDATA)><!ELEMENT City (#PCDATA)><!ELEMENT Book (Title, Publisher, Year)>

<!ATTLIST BookBookIn ID #REQUIREDauthorOf IDREFS #REQUIRED

><!ELEMENT Title (#PCDATA)> <!ELEMENT Publisher (#PCDATA)><!ELEMENT Year (#PCDATA)>

]>



4. Define an XML-schema which is equivalent to the DTD shown in Question 3(b).

<? Xml version = “1.0” encoding = “utf-8” ?><xs: schema xmlns: xs = “http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema”>

<xs:complexType name = “authorType”><xs: sequence>

<xs: attribute name = “AuthorID” type = “xs: string” /></xs: attribute name = “Writing” type = “xs: string” />

</xs: sequence></xs: complexType>

<xs:complexType name = “bookType”><xs: sequence>

<xs: attribute name = “BookID” type = “xs: string” /></xs: attribute name = “authorOf” type = “xs: string” />




<xs:complexType name = “addressType”><xs: sequence>

<xs: element name = “street” type = “xs: string” /></xs: element name = “city” type = “xs: string” />




<xs: element name = “AuthorBook”><xs: complexTyp>

<xs: sequence><xs: element name = “Author” type = “authorType”

<xs: sequence><xs: element name = “title” type = “xs: string” /><xs: element name = “Publisher” type = “xs: string” /><xs: element name = “year” type = “xs: string” />

</xs:sequence></xs: complexType>
