 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

I would like to acknowledge the contributions of my Lecturer Mr. Lahiru

Ratnayake to the development of my project & presentation.

Mr. Lahiru Ratnayake directed me to a wide range of resources on the web. He

answered all of my questions as well as asked me questions that helped me to
narrow my search. Further, He helped me figure out correct documentation for
sources that did not fit the Research Guide examples. He gave me this help during
class time and after class. I also worked with students at NIIT who helped me
locate primary sources.

 TABLES AFTER 3 NF

In the Time Card Expenses table the Expense Code depends on Expense Code ID not on Time
Card Expense ID. Therefore, for the tables to be in 3 NF, we need to create another table,
Expenses.

Also in the Invoice table, the attribute Payment Mode Name depends on Payment Mode ID and
not on Payment Code. Therefore, we need to create a separate table Payment Modes.

In addition, the attributes Card Holders Name and Expiry Date of Card depend on Card Number
not Payment Code. Therefore we need to create another table Credit Cards.

The updated table structures are shown here.

 TABLES AFTER DENORMALIZATION

When we place the information about credit card in a separate table, the query performance
during the generation of payment receipt will get affected due to creation of joins in every
payment receipt. Therefore, for optimum performance, we denormalize and place the credit
card information back into the Invoice table. The updated table structures are shown here.
