Functional Dependency Functional Dependency is the starting point for the process of normalization. Functional dependency exists when a relationship between two attributes allows you to uniquely determine the corresponding attribute’s value. If ‘X’ is known‚ and as a result you are able to uniquely identify ‘Y’‚ there is functional dependency. Combined with keys‚ normal forms are defined for relations. Examples Bear Number determines Student Name: BearNum ---> StuName Department Number

Section B: The Power-Dependency Relationship In order to understand power‚ one must understand that it comes from dependency. Power and dependence have a causal relationship in that power creates dependence and vice versa. In addition‚ power and dependence are positively correlated because the degree of power A has over B is equal to the degree of dependence A has on B (Molm‚ 1990). Therefore‚ the more power A has over B‚ the more dependent B will be on A. “Dependence increases when the resource

Task dependencies Wysocki (2012‚ pp.204) identified dependencies as “a relationship that exists between pairs of tasks”. In projects planning‚ the work breakdown structure (WBS) forms the basis for determination of tasks and their dependencies. Once the WBS is established - often in diagrammatical form‚ tasks and their dependencies can be easily mapped in the project network diagram. Project network diagram graphically represents project commencement and ending with tasks‚ activities‚ various

1. When predicting memory dependencies‚ what is the cost of "over predicting" (falsely predicting dependence)? What is the cost of "under predicting" (failing to predict an actual dependence)? Ans : While predicting memory dependencies‚ the cost of "over predicting" (falsely predicting a dependence) will be a delay in loading an instruction. Over predicting might create a false dependency on the last store instruction and thus generating confusion with the scheduler. The cost of "under predicting"
