In a hierarchical database, a record can contain sets of child records ― known as repeating groups or table-valued attributes.If such a data model is represented as relations, a repeating group would be an attribute where the value is itself a relation.
A database transaction symbolizes a unit of work, performed within a database management system (or similar system) against a database, that is treated in a coherent and reliable way independent of other transactions. A transaction generally represents any change in a database. Transactions in a database environment have two main purposes:
In computer science, Algorithms for Recovery and Isolation Exploiting Semantics, or ARIES, is a recovery algorithm designed to work with a no-force, steal database approach; it is used by IBM Db2, Microsoft SQL Server and many other database systems. [1] IBM Fellow Chandrasekaran Mohan is the primary inventor of the ARIES family of algorithms. [2]
Oracle Database is available by several service providers on-premises, on-cloud, or as a hybrid cloud installation. It may be run on third party servers as well as on Oracle hardware (Exadata on-premises, on Oracle Cloud or at Cloud at Customer). [5] Oracle Database uses SQL for database updating and retrieval.

in the redundant binary representation, each digit can have a value of −1, 0, 0/1 (the value 0/1 has two different representations); in the ternary numeral system, each digit is a trit (trinary digit) having a value of: 0, 1, or 2;
Codd's twelve rules [1] are a set of thirteen rules (numbered zero to twelve) proposed by Edgar F. Codd, a pioneer of the relational model for databases, designed to define what is required from a database management system in order for it to be considered relational, i.e., a relational database management system (RDBMS).
Enable unexpected discoveries in the data; Suggest hypotheses about the causes of observed phenomena; Assess assumptions on which statistical inference will be based; Support the selection of appropriate statistical tools and techniques; Provide a basis for further data collection through surveys or experiments [7]
Referential transparency means that an expression (such as a function call) can be replaced with its value. This requires that the expression is pure , that is to say the expression must be deterministic (always give the same value for the same input) and side-effect free.
