Abstract :
This paper describes the design and implementation of a fuzzy nested querying system for XML databases. The research steps involved are outlined and examined. We integrated different aspects of fuzziness, web and database technology into the implementation of a prototype which covers the intended scope of a demonstration of fuzzy nested querying of databases. This prototype consists of an easy to use graphical interface that allows the user to apply fuzziness to their XML searches. The goal of this is to provide insight on creating more intuitive ways of searching and using XML databases, especially by naive users.
