Relational databases

""" [Andy Schriever : Jan 8]
one can apply the power of the RDBMS query engine 
to knowledge representation techniques such as semantic 
networks, class and object structures, and hierarchical 
classifications.
"""

Andy, you may find relevant for your purposes the work by 
View-based systems <http://www.view-based-systems.com>, 
where Steven Pollitt and Amanda Tinker have developed
several tools and applications for library catalogues and other 
databases, with special reference to the Dewey Decimal
Classification.

Best whishes.
