Decomposition d r 1, r 2, r 3,,r m of r is said to be dependencypreserving with respect to f if the union of the projections of f on each r i, in d is equivalent to f. In computer science the concept of a lossless join decomposition is central in removing redundancy safely from databases while preserving the original data. In this lecture i have explained what is dependency preserving decomposition in dbms and how to findchecktest that a given decomposition is dependency preserving or not with suitable example. So this decomposition is not dependency preserving. It is not necessary that all dependencies from the relation r appear in some relation ri.
Js cjdq but not dependency preserving since jpc is not in one table in this case, adding jpc to the collection of relations gives us a dependency preserving. This is central in removing redundancy safely from databases while preserving the original data. The decomposition of r into r1ab, r2bc and r3cd is a lossless and dependency preserving b lossy but dependency preserving c lossy but dependencies are not preserved. Pdf lossless decompositions in complexvalued databases. The algorithm has time complexity ooog n2, where n is the size of the problem. The join returns more tuples than the original relation. The above decomposition is a bad decomposition or lossy decomposition. Three properties that must satisfied lossless join decomposition avoid data corruption no gainno loss dependency preserving improve performance no joins needed to check a dependency remove duplication keep size and structure of db stable. There is always a losslessjoin, dependencypreserving decomposition into 3nf.
This decomposition is considered a lossless join decomposition because a natural join between student and major will result in the original schema. Give a losslessjoin dependencypreserving decomposition into 3nf. Types of decomposition in dbms lossless decomposition and lossy decomposition. Decomposition of a relation can be completed in the following two ways 1. Fuctional dependencies play a key role in differentiating good database designs from bad database designs. The dependencies are preserved because each dependency in f represents a constraint on the database. R1 and r2 are in bcnf, lossless join decomposition, dependency preserving each functional dependency specified in f either appears directly in one of the relations in the decomposition.
We include examples to show how normalization, dependency preserving, and lossless join decomposition based on the fuzzy functional dependencies of fuzzy relation are done and applied.
