Current database systems are based on the assumption that a datum denotes the same meaning; however, in reality, the violation of this assumption is not unusual. Some data are created in such a way that they represent different sets of attribute values. The current research formulates this phenomenon as dissimilarities of derivation rules and defines multi-derived data as ones that are derived by multiple rules. For multi- derived data, this research proposes a new retrieval scheme and analyze its implication with relation to data retrieval.
