What is Concept-Oriented Query Language (COQL)

Chapter 46
Encyclopedia of Business Analytics and Optimization
Is a syntactic embodiment of the concept-oriented model (COM). It is a join-free query language which uses references and model multidimensional structure for connectivity. At the same time, it is a set-oriented approach because its operators manipulate sets of data elements rather than individual elements. It is also a semantic language because its constructs reflect and rely on basic semantic relationships existing in the model. Main operations of this query language are projection, de-projection and product (cube).
