In this paper we deal with the notion of semantic loss in Peer Data Management Systems (PDMS) queries. We define such a notion and we give a mechanism that discovers semantic loss in a PDMS network. Next, we propose an algorithm that addresses the problem of restoring such a loss. Further evaluation of our proposed algorithm is an ongoing work.
