Determination of the normalization level of database schemas through equivalence classes of attributes

In this paper, based on equivalence classes of attributes there are formulated necessary and sufficient conditions that constraint a database schema to be in the second, third or Boyce-Codd normal forms. These conditions offer a polynomial complexity for the testing algorithms of the normalizations...
