Question

Which of the following is a conflict-serializable schedule?

• A. One that is equivalent to some serial schedule.
• B. One that uses only shared locks.
• C. One that results in a deadlock.
• D. One where all write operations occur at the end.

Hint:

Conflict serializability is a sufficient condition for consistency. If a schedule is conflict serializable, it is guaranteed not to have any concurrency anomalies like lost updates or dirty reads.
