Handling owl:sameAs via Rewriting

Databases 2014-11-14 v1 Artificial Intelligence Distributed, Parallel, and Cluster Computing

Abstract

Rewriting is widely used to optimise owl:sameAs reasoning in materialisation based OWL 2 RL systems. We investigate issues related to both the correctness and efficiency of rewriting, and present an algorithm that guarantees correctness, improves efficiency, and can be effectively parallelised. Our evaluation shows that our approach can reduce reasoning times on practical data sets by orders of magnitude.
