Abstract

Evaluating a traditional database query against a data tuple yields true on match and false on mismatch. Unfortunately, there are many application scenarios where such an evaluation is not possible or does not adequately meet user expectations about vague and uncertain conditions. Thus, there is a need for incorporating impreciseness and proximity into a logic-based query language. The calculus query language CQQL [24] has been developed for such scenarios by exploiting results from quantum logic. In this work we will show how to integrate underlying ideas and concepts of CQQL into SQL.
