Abstract
The Vague Query System (VQS)allows to efficiently carry out rankings for user defined queries according to the semantic meta-information of attributes. It can easily
be added to existing relational database systems.In this
article we demonstrate the applicability of the system on Tourism Information Systems(TI-systems). We will show that for cases where the structure of the existing database is
not directly suited for the use with VQS, we can achieve
compatibility by using views. Furthermore we will show a concept for integrating VQS into the query language
TIS-QL, in order to achieve an even tighter integration
into TI-systems.
