Aggregation and Functional dependency in DBMS-computer world

  Aggregation and  Functional dependency in  DBMS Aggregation  In aggregation the relation between two entities is treated as a single entity. In aggregation relationship with its corresponding entity is aggregated into higher level entity . It is the process of compiling information on object, there by obstructing a higher level. On limitation of the ER model is that it can not Express relationship among relationships. The aggregation represent a relationship between a whole object and its component in other word we can say that using aggregation we can express relationship main relationships.  For example center entity offer the course entity act as a single entity in the relationship which is in a relationship with another entity visitor. In the real world if a visitor visits a coaching center they will never inquiry about the course or just about the center instead he will ask the inquiry about both. Functional dependency  Functional dependency play an ...

Nested relation -oocomputer world

 Nested relation   During the first normal form we require that all attributes have atomic domain a domain is atomic if elements of the domain are considered to be indivisible unit.  For example the set of integer is an atomic domain but the set of all sets of integer is a non atomic domain. We considered set of integer to have subpart the important issue in first normal form not the domain itself but rather the way we use domain element in database. The nested relational model is a extension of the relation model in which domain may be either atomic or relation  valued of a tuple on a attribute may be relation and relation may be stored within relation . A complex objects can be represented by a single tuple of a nested relation if we view a tuple of a nested relation a data item we have a one to one correspondence between data item and objects in the user's view of the database.  Nested relation are just one example of extensions to the basic relational m...
