for the relation R(O,P,X,Y,E, S) FDs={ O->P, XY->O, OE->S, EY->X, PY->X}. 1.Classify each functional dependency 2. Decompose the relation into BCNF relation. 3. Determine whether each of the decompositions has the lossless join property with respect to F and conclude for the whole decomposition. 4. Determine whether each of the decompositions has the dependency preserving property with respect to FD and conclude for the whole decomposition
Dear student, according to the question, the solution is as follows:
So, finally, the relation R (O,P,X,Y,E,S) has been decomposed into 5 relations to meet the requirements of BCNF.
R1(EYX), R2(XYO), R3(OP), R4(PYX), R5(OES)
Thank you, All the best.

Dependency Very Good dependency (key dependency) : XA where Table Very good If all dependencies in a table are '"very good", the table is in BCNF X is a candidate key Good Good dependency: X-> A where If all dependencies in a table are "very good" or "good", the table is in 3NF X is not a candidate key X is a part of a candidate key A is prime attribute Bad Bad dependency (Transitive Dependency): X A where If...
