The columns in a candidate key are called prime attributes, [3] and a column that does not occur in any candidate key is called a non-prime attribute. Every relation without NULL values will have at least one candidate key: Since there cannot be duplicate rows, the set of all columns is a superkey, and if that is not minimal, some subset of ...
No non-prime attribute of R is transitively dependent on the primary key. A non-prime attribute of R is an attribute that does not belong to any candidate key of R. [3] A transitive dependency is a functional dependency in which X → Z (X determines Z) indirectly, by virtue of X → Y and Y → Z (where it is not the case that Y → X). [4]
Every non-prime attribute has a full functional dependency on each candidate key (attributes depend on the whole of every key) [5] Every non-trivial functional dependency either begins with a superkey or ends with a prime attribute (attributes depend only on candidate keys) [5]
In the Today's court bookings table, there are no non-prime attributes: that is, all attributes belong to some candidate key. Therefore, the table adheres to both 2NF and 3NF. The table does not adhere to BCNF. This is because of the dependency Rate type → Court in which the determining attribute is Rate type, on which Court depends.
Attribute-based access control (ABAC), also known as policy-based access control for IAM, defines an access control paradigm whereby a subject's authorization to perform a set of operations is determined by evaluating attributes associated with the subject, object, requested operations, and, in some cases, environment attributes.
A table (called the referencing table) can refer to a column (or a group of columns) in another table (the referenced table) by using a foreign key.The referenced column(s) in the referenced table must be under a unique constraint, such as a primary key.
[1] [2] In simple words, if the values for the X attributes are known (say they are x), then the values for the Y attributes corresponding to x can be determined by looking them up in any tuple of R containing x. Customarily X is called the determinant set and Y the dependent set. A functional dependency FD: X → Y is called trivial if Y is a ...
A foreign key is a set of attributes in a table that refers to the primary key of another table, linking these two tables. In the context of relational databases, a foreign key is subject to an inclusion dependency constraint that the tuples consisting of the foreign key attributes in one relation, R, must also exist in some other (not necessarily distinct) relation, S; furthermore that those ...
