• Query Processing
• Parsing
• Query Evaluation

The steps involved in processing __________

• Parsing and translation
• Optimization
• Evaluation

In query processing, system must first translate given query into which form?

• Internal form
• Physical form
• high level form
• New form

In generating the internal form of the query, the parser checks ___________

• Syntax of query
• Verifies relation name
• None of given
• Both of Given

Match the following: A) evaluation primitive B) query-execution plan c) query-execution engine 1) takes a query-evaluation plan, executes that plan, and returns the answers to the query 2) A relationalalgebra operation annotated with instructions on how to evaluate it 3)A sequence of primitive operations that can be used to evaluate a query

• A-2, B-3, C-1
• A-1, B-3, C-2
• A-3, B-1, C-2
• A-3, B-2, C-1

Which statement(S) is/are true? A) A query could be expressed in SQL several different ways. B) SQL query can be translated into a relationalalgebra expression in one of several ways. C) There are several ways to evaluate relational-algebra expressions D) We can execute each relational-algebra operation by one of several different algorithms.

• Only A,B
• Only A,C,D
• Only D
• All A,B,C,D

____________ is the process of selecting the most efficient query-evaluation plan from among the many strategies usually possible for processing a given query, especially if the query is complex.
