Purchase2scheme custnum, address, flyrodstocknum, date and suppose that the flyshop keeps both the home and work address of each customer. If testing a functional dependency can be done by considering just one relation, then the cost of testing this constraint is low when decomposing a relation it is possible that it is no longer possible to do the testing without having to perform a cartesian produced. A multivalued dependency exists when there are at least 3 attributes like x,y and z in a relation and for value of x there is a well defined set of values of y and a well defined set of values of z.

A multivalued dependency is a special case of a join dependency. In some cases, a relation scheme in bcnf still seems to have unnecessary repetition.
When existence of one or more rows in a table implies one or more other rows in the same table, then the multivalued dependencies occur.

An effort has been made to familiarize the readers with the concepts of database normalization, concurrency control, deadlock handling and recovery etc. Presumably, a composite key can be projected with only one of its two or more attributes, into a smaller decomposition, which when rejoined, with the rest of the relation, will result in spurious rows.
