    ABSTRAK Sistem basis data merupakan bagian dan sistem informasi yang menangani aktifitas data. Basis data relasional adalah model penyajian basis data yang dibangun dari konsep-konsep relasi dalam matematika. Konsep Ketergantungan menjadi dasar untuk membangun metode normalisasi basis data relasional. Normalisasi adalah proses dekomposisi tabel-tabel menjadi beberapa tabel yang lebih simpel dalam atribut¬atributnya, dan benar menurut struktur dekomposisi. Database system is part of information system that handling data activity. Relational database is database representation models that developed from mathematical relation concepts. Dependencies are basic to develop normalization of relational database. Normalization is tables decomposition process to be several tables that more simply in this attributes, and rigth be accord in with decomposition structure

    Sequential Relational Decomposition

    The concept of decomposition in computer science and engineering is considered a fundamental component of computational thinking and is prevalent in design of algorithms, software construction, hardware design, and more. We propose a simple and natural formalization of sequential decomposition, in which a task is decomposed into two sequential sub-tasks, with the first sub-task to be executed before the second sub-task is executed. These tasks are specified by means of input/output relations. We define and study decomposition problems, which is to decide whether a given specification can be sequentially decomposed. Our main result is that decomposition itself is a difficult computational problem. More specifically, we study decomposition problems in three settings: where the input task is specified explicitly, by means of Boolean circuits, and by means of automatic relations. We show that in the first setting decomposition is NP-complete, in the second setting it is NEXPTIME-complete, and in the third setting there is evidence to suggest that it is undecidable. Our results indicate that the intuitive idea of decomposition as a system-design approach requires further investigation. In particular, we show that adding a human to the loop by asking for a decomposition hint lowers the complexity of decomposition problems considerably

    Join Execution Using Fragmented Columnar Indices on GPU and MIC

    The paper describes an approach to the parallel natural join execution on computing clusters with GPU and MIC Coprocessors. This approach is based on a decomposition of natural join relational operator using the column indices and domain-interval fragmentation. This decomposition admits parallel executing the resource-intensive relational operators without data transfers. All column index fragments are stored in main memory. To process the join of two relations, each pair of index fragments corresponding to particular domain interval is joined on a separate processor core. Described approach allows efficient parallel query processing for very large databases on modern computing cluster systems with many-core accelerators. A prototype of the DBMS coprocessor system was implemented using this technique. The results of computational experiments for GPU and Xeon Phi are presented. These results confirm the efficiency of proposed approach

    Measuring Semantic Similarity by Latent Relational Analysis

    This paper introduces Latent Relational Analysis (LRA), a method for measuring semantic similarity. LRA measures similarity in the semantic relations between two pairs of words. When two pairs have a high degree of relational similarity, they are analogous. For example, the pair cat:meow is analogous to the pair dog:bark. There is evidence from cognitive science that relational similarity is fundamental to many cognitive and linguistic tasks (e.g., analogical reasoning). In the Vector Space Model (VSM) approach to measuring relational similarity, the similarity between two pairs is calculated by the cosine of the angle between the vectors that represent the two pairs. The elements in the vectors are based on the frequencies of manually constructed patterns in a large corpus. LRA extends the VSM approach in three ways: (1) patterns are derived automatically from the corpus, (2) Singular Value Decomposition is used to smooth the frequency data, and (3) synonyms are used to reformulate word pairs. This paper describes the LRA algorithm and experimentally compares LRA to VSM on two tasks, answering college-level multiple-choice word analogy questions and classifying semantic relations in noun-modifier expressions. LRA achieves state-of-the-art results, reaching human-level performance on the analogy questions and significantly exceeding VSM performance on both tasks

    Some relational structures with polynomial growth and their associated algebras II: Finite generation

    The profile of a relational structure RR is the function φR\varphi_R which counts for every integer nn the number, possibly infinite, φR(n)\varphi_R(n) of substructures of RR induced on the nn-element subsets, isomorphic substructures being identified. If φR\varphi_R takes only finite values, this is the Hilbert function of a graded algebra associated with RR, the age algebra A(R)A(R), introduced by P.~J.~Cameron. In a previous paper, we studied the relationship between the properties of a relational structure and those of their algebra, particularly when the relational structure RR admits a finite monomorphic decomposition. This setting still encompasses well-studied graded commutative algebras like invariant rings of finite permutation groups, or the rings of quasi-symmetric polynomials. In this paper, we investigate how far the well know algebraic properties of those rings extend to age algebras. The main result is a combinatorial characterization of when the age algebra is finitely generated. In the special case of tournaments, we show that the age algebra is finitely generated if and only if the profile is bounded. We explore the Cohen-Macaulay property in the special case of invariants of permutation groupoids. Finally, we exhibit sufficient conditions on the relational structure that make naturally the age algebra into a Hopf algebra.Comment: 27 pages; submitte
