Relauonal database theory has d~scovered complete axlomauzations for functional and multivalued dependencies. However, a database design system based on dependencies must deal with some more general kinds of dependencies than these--at least with embedded multivalued dependencies Yet no axiomatizatton for embedded multivalued dependencies is known. A more general class of dependencies, called "template dependencies," is detrmed in this paper, and a complete ax~omatizat~on is given for them.
