Abstract:Abstract. As pointed out in [1],Multivalued dependencies (MVD) depend on the context in which they are defined and thus are very hard to visualize. In this paper, continuing the study in [1], we give some results which may provide some more insight regarding the existence of possible MVDs in the relation schemes provided all their FDs are known in advance.Throughout this paper, we assume that the reader is familiar with the basic concepts of the relational database [2,3].
