31. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 31IS 202 – FALL 2002 Normalization Normalization theory is based on the observation that relations with certain properties are more effective in inserting, updating and deleting data than other sets of relations containing the same data Normalization is a multi-step process beginning with an “unnormalized” relation –Hospital example from Atre, S. Data Base: Structured Techniques for Design, Performance, and Management

32. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 32IS 202 – FALL 2002 Normal Forms First Normal Form (1NF) Second Normal Form (2NF) Third Normal Form (3NF) Boyce-Codd Normal Form (BCNF) Fourth Normal Form (4NF) Fifth Normal Form (5NF)

33. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 33IS 202 – FALL 2002 Normalization Boyce- Codd and Higher Functional dependency of nonkey attributes on the primary key - Atomic values only Full Functional dependency of nonkey attributes on the primary key No transitive dependency between nonkey attributes All determinants are candidate keys - Single multivalued dependency

34. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 34IS 202 – FALL 2002 Unnormalized Relations First step in normalization is to convert the data into a two-dimensional table In unnormalized relations data can repeat within a column

35. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 35IS 202 – FALL 2002 Unnormalized Relations

36. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 36IS 202 – FALL 2002 First Normal Form To move to First Normal Form a relation must contain only atomic values at each row and column –No repeating groups –A column or set of columns is called a Candidate Key when its values can uniquely identify the row in the relation

37. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 37IS 202 – FALL 2002 First Normal Form

38. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 38IS 202 – FALL 2002 1NF Storage Anomalies Insertion: A new patient has not yet undergone surgery -- hence no surgeon # -- Since surgeon # is part of the key we can’t insert Insertion: If a surgeon is newly hired and hasn’t operated yet -- there will be no way to include that person in the database Update: If a patient comes in for a new procedure, and has moved, we need to change multiple address entries Deletion (type 1): Deleting a patient record may also delete all info about a surgeon Deletion (type 2): When there are functional dependencies (like side effects and drug) changing one item eliminates other information

39. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 39IS 202 – FALL 2002 Second Normal Form A relation is said to be in Second Normal Form when every nonkey attribute is fully functionally dependent on the primary key –That is, every nonkey attribute needs the full primary key for unique identification

40. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 40IS 202 – FALL 2002 Second Normal Form

43. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 43IS 202 – FALL 2002 1NF Storage Anomalies Removed Insertion: Can now enter new patients without surgery Insertion: Can now enter Surgeons who haven’t operated Deletion (type 1): If Charles Brown dies the corresponding tuples from Patient and Surgery tables can be deleted without losing information on David Rosen Update: If John White comes in for third time, and has moved, we only need to change the Patient table

44. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 44IS 202 – FALL 2002 2NF Storage Anomalies Insertion: Cannot enter the fact that a particular drug has a particular side effect unless it is given to a patient Deletion: If John White receives some other drug because of the penicillin rash, and a new drug and side effect are entered, we lose the information that penicillin can cause a rash Update: If drug side effects change (a new formula) we have to update multiple occurrences of side effects

45. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 45IS 202 – FALL 2002 Third Normal Form A relation is said to be in Third Normal Form if there is no transitive functional dependency between nonkey attributes –When one nonkey attribute can be determined with one or more nonkey attributes there is said to be a transitive functional dependency The side effect column in the Surgery table is determined by the drug administered –Side effect is transitively functionally dependent on drug so Surgery is not 3NF

46. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 46IS 202 – FALL 2002 Third Normal Form

47. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 47IS 202 – FALL 2002 Third Normal Form

48. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 48IS 202 – FALL 2002 2NF Storage Anomalies Removed Insertion: We can now enter the fact that a particular drug has a particular side effect in the Drug relation Deletion: If John White recieves some other drug as a result of the rash from penicillin, but the information on penicillin and rash is maintained Update: The side effects for each drug appear only once

49. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 49IS 202 – FALL 2002 Boyce-Codd Normal Form Most 3NF relations are also BCNF relations A 3NF relation is NOT in BCNF if: –Candidate keys in the relation are composite keys (they are not single attributes) –There is more than one candidate key in the relation, and –The keys are not disjoint, that is, some attributes in the keys are common

50. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 50IS 202 – FALL 2002 Most 3NF Relations Are Also BCNF – Is This One?

51. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 51IS 202 – FALL 2002 BCNF Relations

52. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 52IS 202 – FALL 2002 Fourth Normal Form Any relation is in Fourth Normal Form if it is BCNF and any multivalued dependencies are trivial Eliminate non-trivial multivalued dependencies by projecting into simpler tables

53. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 53IS 202 – FALL 2002 Fifth Normal Form A relation is in 5NF if every join dependency in the relation is implied by the keys of the relation Implies that relations that have been decomposed in previous NF can be recombined via natural joins to recreate the original relation

54. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 54IS 202 – FALL 2002 Normalizing to Death Normalization splits database information across multiple tables To retrieve complete information from a normalized database, the JOIN operation must be used JOIN tends to be expensive in terms of processing time, and very large joins are very expensive

66. 2002.10.17 - SLIDE 66IS 202 – FALL 2002 ColdFusion Developing WWW sites typically involved a lot of programming to build dynamic sites –E.g., pages generated as a result of catalog searches, etc. ColdFusion was designed to permit the construction of dynamic Web sites with only minor extensions to HTML through a DBMS interface
