In the context of schema normalization in relational DBMS, consider a set F of functional dependencies. The set of all functional dependencies implied by F is called the closure of F. To compute the closure of F, Armstrong’s Axioms can be applied. Consider $X, Y,$ and $Z$ as sets of attributes over a relational schema. The three rules of Armstrong’s Axioms are described as follows. Reflexivity: If $Y$ ⊆ $X$, then $X \to Y$ Augmentation: If $X \to Y,$ then $XZ \to YZ$ for any Z Transitivity: If $X \to Y$ and $Y \to Z,$ then $X \to Z$ The additional rule of Union is defined as follows. Union: If $X \to Y$ and $X \to Z,$ then $X \to YZ$ It can be proved that the additional rule of Union is also implied by the three rules of Armstrong’s Axioms. Listed below are four combinations of these three rules. Which one of these combinations is both necessary and sufficient for the proof ?

Consider a stack $S$ and a queue $Q.$ Both of them are initially empty and have the capacity to store ten elements each. The elements 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 arrive one by one, in that order. When an element arrives, it is assigned either to $S$ (pushed on $S$) or to $Q$ (enqueued to $Q).$ Once all the five elements are stored, the output is generated in two steps. First, stack S is emptied by popping all elements. Then queue $Q$ is emptied by dequeueing all elements. The output obtained by following this process is 4 3 1 2 5.

A non-pipelined instruction execution unit that operates at 1.6 GHz clock takes an average of 5 clock cycles to complete the execution of an instruction. To improve the performance, the system was pipelined with a goal of achieving an average throughput of one instruction per clock cycle. However, it could operate only at 1.2 GHz due to pipeline overheads. While executing a program in the pipelined design, 30% of instructions encountered a stall of 2 cycles due to pipeline hazards. The speed-up obtained by the pipelined design over the non-pipelined one for this program is ___________. (rounded off to two decimal places) Note: 1G=10 9

Consider a new TCP connection between a sender and a receiver. The receiver advertised window is constant at 48 KB, the maximum segment size (MSS) is 2 KB, and the slow start threshold for TCP congestion control is 16 KB. Assume that there are no timeouts or duplicate acknowledgements. The number of rounds of transmission required for the congestion control algorithm of the TCP connection to reach the congestion avoidance phase is ___________. (answer in integer) Note: 1K=2 10

Suppose an unbiased coin is tossed 6 times. Each coin toss is independent of all previous coin tosses. Let $E$ 1 be the event that among the second, fourth, and sixth coin tosses, there are at least two heads. Let $E$ 2 be the event that among the first, second, third, and fifth coin tosses, there are equal number of heads and tails. The conditional probability $P(E$ 1 | $E$ 2) is equal to ____________.

It is necessary to design a link-layer protocol between two hosts that are directly connected over a lossless link of length 3000 kilometers. Assume that the link bandwidth is 10 8 bits per second and that the propagation delay in the link is 5 nanoseconds per meter. Every transmitted data byte is assigned a unique sequence number. Let $N$ be the minimum number of bits needed for the sequence number field in the protocol header such that i. the sequence numbers do not wrap around before 60 seconds, and ii. the maximum utilization of the link is achieved. The value of $N$ is ______. (answer in integer)
