RDQuery - Querying Relational Databases on-the-fly with RDF-QL
نویسندگان
چکیده
One of the main drawbacks of the Semantic Web is the lack of semantically rich data, since most of the information is still stored in relational databases. We present RDQuery, a wrapper system which enables Semantic Web applications to access and query data actually stored in relational databases using their own built-in functionality. RDQuery automatically translates SPARQL and RDQL queries into SQL. The translation process is based on the Relational.OWL representation of relational databases and does not depend on the local schema or the underlying database management system.

The Resource Description Framework (RDF) Model&Syntax Specification describes a metadata infrastructure which can accommodate classification elements from different vocabularies i.e. schemas. The underlying model consists of a labeled directed acyclic graph which can be linearized into eXtensible Markup Language (XML) transfer syntax for interchange between applications. This paper will demonst...
متن کاملRDB2Onto: Approach for creating semantic metadata from relational database data
In this paper we present the approach for creating semantic metadata from relational database data. When building ontology-based information systems, it is often needed to convert or replicate data from existing information systems (such as databases) to the ontology based information systems, if we want the ontology-based systems to work with real data. RDB2Onto tool converts selected data fro...
متن کاملQuerying Temporal Databases via OWL 2 QL
SQL:2011, the most recently adopted version of the SQL query language, has unprecedentedly standardized the representation of temporal data in relational databases. Following the successful paradigm of ontology-based data access, we develop a practical approach to querying the SQL:2011-based temporal data model via the semantic layer of OWL 2 QL. The interval-based temporal query language (TQL)...

With the Resource Description Framework (R...
متن کاملSesame: A Generic Architecture for Storing and Querying RDF and RDF Schema
RDF and RDF Schema are two W3C standards aimed at enriching the Web with machine-processable semantic data. We have developed Sesame, an architecture for efficient storage and expressive querying of large quantities of metadata in RDF and RDF Schema. Sesame’s design and implementation are independent from any specific storage device. Thus, Sesame can be deployed on top of a variety of storage d...
