Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R Assertion A: In the Basic Timestamp Ordering Protocol, the application of Thomas's Write Rule ensures that if a transaction's timestamp is less than the Write-Timestamp of the target data item, the write operation is skipped rather than causing the transaction to abort. Reason R: Skipping obsolete writes reduces unnecessary transaction rollbacks and allows the system to accept more concurrent schedules while maintaining view serializability. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
- 1Both A and R are correct but R is NOT the correct explanation of A
- 2A is correct but R is not correct
- 3Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A✓
- 4A is not correct but R is correct
