ABSTRACT
Casual and other users of large formatted data bases need a simple tabular (relational) view of the data rather than a network or tree-structured view. This paper illustrates the removal of repeating groups, hierarchic and plex structures, and cross-referencing structures. Finally, the simplification of data base relations by normalization is discussed.

Automatic Generation of Normalized Relational Schemas from Nested Key-Value Data
SIGMOD '16: Proceedings of the 2016 International Conference on Management of DataSelf-describing key-value data formats such as JSON are becoming increasingly popular as application developers choose to avoid the rigidity imposed by the relational model. Database systems designed for these self-describing formats, such as MongoDB, ...
