Abstract :
When employing fuzzy relational structures in the development of intelligent systems, a unified generic tool is needed to assist the designers, knowledge experts, and users in constructing the application\´s data dictionary and relational structures for the observed environment being modeled. Such a tool must apply some form of "computing with words" to help users conceptualize the semantics of the fuzzy relations themselves. Everyday terms and those used in special environments form a natural means of conceptualizing the reasoning process of fuzzy analysis on fuzzy relations using words rather than numbers. The recognized words and terms allow the potential users of fuzzy systems the opportunity to step back and see the big-picture of a typical application\´s overall relational structures and compositions. A front-end English Query Language (EQL) tool is specified along with the supporting grammar to view the emerging technologies employed in representing fuzzy relational structures and how the relational approach can be used for "computing with words" systems. Therefore, the desired logical analysis can be expressed using natural language queries as opposed to the mathematical products forms of the multi-valued logics used
