  • Abstract
    In this paper, we present the very first algorithm for answering expressive fuzzy conjunctive queries, which allow the occurrence of both lower bound and the upper bound of threshold in a query atom, over the relative expressive fuzzy DL, f-ALC. The algorithm we suggest here can easily be adapted to existing (and future) DL implementations. We distinguish the queries into two categories, the ground and the variable-involved Boolean queries, and present the algorithms for them sequentially.
