Database is being constructed to keep track of the teams and games of a sports league. A team has a number of players. not all of whom participate in each game. It is desired to keep track of the players participating in each game for each team, the positions they played in that game, and the result of the game.

Suppose a company would like to design a data warehouse to facilitate the analysis of moving vehicles in an online analytical processing manner. The company registers huge amounts of auto movement data in the format of (Auto ID, location, speed, time). Each Auto ID represents a vehicle associated with information, such as vehicle category,driver category, etc, and each location may be associated with a street in a city. Assume that a street map is available for the city.

Consider the following global schema:
BOOKS (Book#, Primary_author, Topic, Total_stock, $price)
BOOKSTORE (Store#, City, State, Zip, Inventory_value)
STOCK (Store#, Book#, Qty)
(i) Give an example of two simple predicates that would be meaningful for the BOOKSTORE relation for horizontal partitioning.
(ii) How would a horizontal derived partitioning of STOCK be defined based on the partitioning of BOOKSTORE.
(iii) Show predicates by which BOOKS may be horizontally partitioned by topic.
(iv) Show how the STOCK may be further partitioned from the partitions in (ii) by adding the predicates in (iii).
