چکیده

We propose a framework that supports a federated environment based on a Mediator Architecture in the Semantic Web. The Mediator supports mappings between the OWL Ontology of the Mediator and the other ontologies in the federated sites. SPARQL queries submitted to the Mediator are decomposed and reformulated to SPARQL queries to the federated sites. The evaluated results return to the Mediator. In this paper we describe the mappings definition and encoding. We also discuss briefly the reformulation approach that is used by the Mediator system that we are currently implementing.

Towards SPARQL Instance-Level Update in the Presence of OWL-DL TBoxes

Represented knowledge is subject to frequent changes. To meet these requirements for dynamics, SPARQL update, an update language for RDF graphs, was developed. Even though there is some research on semantics of SPARQL ABox update for RDFS ontologies and approaches addressing updates in interplay with rather restricted TBoxes languages, up till now there is no definition of semantics for SPARQL ...

Terp: Syntax for OWL-friendly SPARQL Queries

Web Ontology Language (OWL) [5] can be seen as an extension of Resource Description Framework (RDF). The primary exchange syntax for OWL is RDF/XML, and every OWL ontology can be represented as an RDF graph. But there is no standard query language specifically for OWL ontologies. The most commonly used Semantic Web query language is SPARQL [7], which is intended to be used for RDF. Roughly spea...

SPARQL2OWL: Towards Bridging the Semantic Gap Between RDF and OWL

Several large databases in biology are now making their information available through the Resource Description Framework (RDF). RDF can be used for large datasets and provides a graph-based semantics. The Web Ontology Language (OWL), another Semantic Web standard, provides a more formal, modeltheoretic semantics. While some approaches combine RDF and OWL, for example for querying, knowledge in ...

SPARQL-DL: SPARQL Query for OWL-DL

There are many query languages (QLs) that can be used to query RDF and OWL ontologies but neither type is satisfactory for querying OWL-DL ontologies. RDF-based QLs (RDQL, SeRQL, SPARQL) are harder to give a semantics w.r.t. OWL-DL and are more powerful than what OWL-DL reasoners can provide. DL-based QLs (DIG ask queries, nRQL) have clear semantics but are not powerful enough in the general ca...

Enabling Faceted Search over OWL 2 with SemFacet

Lots of applications nowadays rely on RDF, OWL 2, and SPARQL 1.1 for storing, publishing and querying data. However, SPARQL 1.1 is not targeted towards end-users, and suitable query interfaces are needed. Faceted search is a prominent approach to facilitate end-users query formulation which is widely used in information systems. This approach was recently adapted to the context of RDF, however,...
