Abstract

In this paper, we consider the situation where a fuzzy query is submitted to distributed data sources. In order to save bandwith and processing cost, we propose an approach whose aim is to forward the query to the most relevant sources only. An efficient fuzzy-cardinality-based technique for summarizing each data source is described. The approach we propose consists in estimating the relevance of a source with respect to a user query, based on its associated summary. Some experiments illustrate the efficiency of the approach.
