Abstract :
Fuzzy data management in databases is a complex process because of flexible data nature and heterogeneous database systems. A solution to this problem has been solved using an ontology which isolates the fuzzy database representation of their management platform making fuzzy schemas Relational Database Management System (RDBMS)-independent and Web-accessible. However, queries performed on fuzzy databases present similar problems. In this proposal an ontology which represents a query structure regardless of any RDBMS implementation is defined. This ontology allows generating and executing any query on fuzzy or classical data according to the system where it is executed.
