The paper introduces XFSQL (XML Fuzzy Structured Query Language), a preliminary prototype of a portable query language for Fuzzy Database Management Systems (FDBMS) using the XML formatting rules. The need for a portable query language for FDBMSs is discussed, and a basic language syntax and its associated datamodel are proposed. Additionally, the paper proposes a framework for implementing XFSQL query translator interfaces, which would make a particular FDBMS able to process XFSQL queries by translating them to the FDBMS proprietary fuzzy query language. Finally, an example of XFSQL query, together with its translation to the query language of a FDBMS implemented on a commercial DBMS, is shown.
