Lossless decomposition vs Dependency Preservation
问题 Does anyone of them implies the other? My logic is that if all dependencies are preserved, then there is no loss of information and similarly, if decomposition is lossless then no functional dependency must have been violated. So essentially, dependency preservation is a way to ensure that your decomposition is lossless. I am having a hard time accepting/denying it. So do both of these guarantee one another or are there cases where one can be achieved without the other? 回答1: In general these
