Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 7, Problem 42E
Explanation of Solution
Normalization of the schema to 4NF:
- It is the normalization level next to Boyce-Codd Normal Form (BCNF).
- Given schema,
books(accessionno, isbn, title, author, publisher)
users(userid, name, deptid, deptname)
- The constraints given in the question are,
accessionno → isbn
isbn → title
isbn → publisher
isbn →→ author
userid → name
userid → deptid
deptid → deptname
- Second Normal Form (2NF): If the schema does not contain any functional dependencies, then it is said to be in second Normal Form.
- The conversion of the given normal to 2NF is a s follows,
- Consider the functional dependencies,
isbn → title
isbn → publisher
isbn →→ author
- For the above functional dependencies,
- The relational schema “books(accessionno, isbn, title, author, publisher)” is converted to “books(isbn, title, author, publisher)” and books(accessionno, isbn)...
