Abstract :
This paper proposes a simple and expressive model to implement fuzzy queries over conventional databases for decision support systems. The proposed model presents, in an uniform fashion, a pertinent function and an expression to do conjunctive combination of concepts, as a better alternative to the classical fuzzy operators in use today
