Improving Database Schemes by Adding Attributes
Summary: Adds attributes to relational schemas to improve conceptual simplicity and implementation efficiency, turning several known non-independent schemes into independent ones. Provides constructions and theoretical evidence for the conjecture that any schema can be made independent by attribute augmentation. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
