ABSTRACT:
The present invention is related to a database management system that is capable of autonomous dynamic ontology management through soft classing. The present invention is further related to a method of database management by dividing attribute data, e.g., price=10 dollars, into class elements containing data, e.g., attribute name=price, type=numeric, default units=dollars, and entry elements containing data, e.g., attribute value=10, to permit dynamic ontology management and evolution in the database through soft classing.
