REAL-WORLD MVD's
Summary: Analyzes real-world multivalued dependencies (MVDs) to measure needed complexity. Shows natural MVDs are conflict-free, enabling a unique 4NF dependency-preserving schema; non-conflict-free sets miss semantics, fixed by enforcing conflict-freedom. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
