Abstract :
The authors attempt a survey of current approaches carried out in the confluence of the two technologies: fuzzy set theory and object-oriented technology, that could provide a powerful tool for enhancing database management systems, software modeling, and knowledge representation in AI systems. Possible types of fuzziness are discussed and key features related to different kinds of fuzzy software systems are also pinpointed out. In a nutshell, fuzzy theory, as a modeling mechanism, is especially useful in tackling real world applications whose complexity demands are growing intensively
