The federated query extension of SPARQL 1.1 allows executing queries distributed over different SPARQL endpoints. SPARQL-LD is a recent extension of SPARQL 1.1 which enables to directly query any HTTP web source containing RDF data, like…
Although SPARQL has been the predominant query language over RDF graphs, some query intentions cannot be well captured by only using SPARQL syntax. On the other hand, the keyword search enjoys widespread usage because of its intuitive way…
The optimization of query execution plans is known to be crucial for reducing the query execution time. In particular, query optimization has been studied thoroughly for relational databases over the past decades. Recently, the Resource…
We propose a novel approach to designing RDF-stores with the goal of improving the consistency and predictability of query performance. When designing these systems, three properties are commonly desired: support for the full range of…
In this paper, we propose a new approach for fast processing of SPARQL queries on large RDF datasets containing RDF quadruples (or quads). Our approach called RIQ employs a decrease-and-conquer strategy: Rather than indexing the entire RDF…
The SPARQL query language is a recent W3C standard for processing RDF data, a format that has been developed to encode information in a machine-readable way. We investigate the foundations of SPARQL query optimization and (a) provide novel…
RDF has seen increased adoption in recent years, prompting the standardization of the SPARQL query language for RDF, and the development of local and distributed engines for processing SPARQL queries. This survey paper provides a…
Partial evaluation has recently been used for processing SPARQL queries over a large resource description framework (RDF) graph in a distributed environment. However, the previous approach is inefficient when dealing with complex queries.…
Answering queries over a federation of SPARQL endpoints requires combining data from more than one data source. Optimizing queries in such scenarios is particularly challenging not only because of (i) the large variety of possible query…
RDF data in the linked open data (LOD) cloud is very valuable for many different applications. In order to unlock the full value of this data, users should be able to issue complex queries on the RDF datasets in the LOD cloud. SPARQL can…
In recent years, the significant growth of RDF data used in numerous applications has made its efficient and scalable manipulation an important issue. In this paper, we present RDFViewS, a system capable of choosing the most suitable views…
The number of linked data sources and the size of the linked open data graph keep growing every day. As a consequence, semantic RDF services are more and more confronted to various "big data" problems. Query processing is one of them and…
With the adoption of RDF as the data model for Linked Data and the Semantic Web, query specification from end- users has become more and more common in SPARQL end- points. In this paper, we conduct an in-depth analytical study of the…
This work is done as part of a research master's thesis project. The goal is to generate SPARQL queries based on user-supplied keywords to query RDF graphs. To do this, we first transformed the input ontology into an RDF graph that reflects…
The proliferation of RDF datasets has resulted in studies focusing on optimizing SPARQL query processing. Most existing work focuses on basic graph patterns (BGPs) and ignores other vital operators in SPARQL, such as UNION and OPTIONAL.…
As Resource Description Framework (RDF) is becoming a popular data modelling standard, the challenges of efficient processing of Basic Graph Pattern (BGP) SPARQL queries (a.k.a. SQL inner-joins) have been a focus of the research community…
Understanding how users tailor their SPARQL queries is crucial when designing query evaluation engines or fine-tuning RDF stores with performance in mind. In this paper we analyze 3 million real-world SPARQL queries extracted from logs of…
In this paper, we present an embedding-based framework (TrQuery) for recommending solutions of a SPARQL query, including approximate solutions when exact querying solutions are not available due to incompleteness or inconsistencies of…
Many repositories utilize the versatile RDF model to publish data. Repositories are typically distributed and geographically remote, but data are interconnected (e.g., the Semantic Web) and queried globally by a language such as SPARQL. Due…
We propose techniques for processing SPARQL queries over a large RDF graph in a distributed environment. We adopt a "partial evaluation and assembly" framework. Answering a SPARQL query Q is equivalent to finding subgraph matches of the…
