Development of applications with fuzzy objects in modern programming platforms
Fernando Berzal, Nicolás Marı́n, Olga Pons, M.A. Vila · International Journal of Intelligent Systems · 2005
Most of the applications that are currently being developed use object-oriented programming technology, as is the case of those applications built with the Java or C♯ languages. Data management has not kept out of this trend, and object-oriented and object-relational database management systems have arisen as a result. Soft-computing applications need to manage imperfect data and Fuzzy Sets Theory has proven to be a good choice for accomplishing the task of imperfect data management. In this article we present a framework that allows the programmers of soft-computing applications to deal with fuzzy objects in a transparent and intuitive way. This framework can be used to develop an object-oriented code in those systems that conform with current hip object-oriented languages, so that imperfect information can be managed. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
