Normalization Erd Example With Exercise

The document discusses normalization of tables from the unnormalized form (UNF) to third normal form (3NF). It provides examples of normalizing two tables - one containing parts and suppliers information, and another containing employee, department and project details. The key steps are to identify functional dependencies and remove transitive dependencies to eliminate anomalies and attain 3NF. Entity relationship diagrams and relation schemes are derived based on the normalized tables.
