Relational and noSQL storages are developed for the fast processing of the large data sets having a stable structure, while the ontologies are used to rep-resent complex and dynamic sets of information of a limited size. In the in-dustrial…
Various computing and data resources on the Web are being enhanced with machine-interpretable semantic descriptions to facilitate better search, discovery and integration. This interconnected metadata constitutes the Semantic Web, whose…
The increasing interest in Semantic Web technologies has led not only to a rapid growth of semantic data on the Web but also to an increasing number of backend applications with already more than a trillion triples in some cases. Confronted…
The Resource Description Framework (RDF) is continuing to grow outside the bounds of its initial function as a metadata framework and into the domain of general-purpose data modeling. This expansion has been facilitated by the continued…
Many systems can be described in terms of networks of discrete elements and their various relationships to one another. A semantic network, or multi-relational network, is a directed labeled graph consisting of a heterogeneous set of…
We consider the setting of a Semantic Web database, containing both explicit data encoded in RDF triples, and implicit data, implied by the RDF semantics. Based on a query workload, we address the problem of selecting a set of views to be…
Several centralised RDF systems support datalog reasoning by precomputing and storing all logically implied triples using the wellknown seminaive algorithm. Large RDF datasets often exceed the capacity of centralised RDF systems, and a…
Mapping relational databases to RDF is a fundamental problem for the development of the Semantic Web. We present a solution, inspired by draft methods defined by the W3C where relational databases are directly mapped to RDF and OWL. Given a…
RDF is increasingly being used to encode data for the semantic web and for data exchange. There have been a large number of works that address RDF data management. In this paper we provide an overview of these works.
Considering the evolution of the semantic wiki engine based platforms, two main approaches could be distinguished: Ontologies for Wikis (OfW) and Wikis for Ontologies (WfO). OfW vision requires existing ontologies to be imported. Most of…
The recent advancements of the Semantic Web and Linked Data have changed the working of the traditional web. There is significant adoption of the Resource Description Framework (RDF) format for saving of web-based data. This massive…
The semantic web has received many contributions of researchers as ontologies which, in this context, i.e. within RDF linked data, are formalized conceptualizations that might use different protocols, such as RDFS, OWL DL and OWL FULL. In…
Data warehouses are nowadays an important component in every competitive system, it's one of the main components on which business intelligence is based. We can even say that many companies are climbing to the next level and use a set of…
The modern day semantic applications store data as Resource Description Framework (RDF) data.Due to Proliferation of RDF Data, the efficient management of huge RDF data has become essential. A number of approaches pertaining to both…
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…
Most of data on the Web are still stored in relational databases. Therefore, it is more important to make the correspondence between relational databases (RDB) and ontologies for storing the Web data. In this paper, we present an new…
Semantic Web knowledge representation standards, and in particular RDF and OWL, often come endowed with a formal semantics which is considered to be of fundamental importance for the field. Reasoning, i.e., the drawing of logical inferences…
In recent years, the increased need to house and process large volumes of data has prompted the need for distributed storage and querying systems. The growth of machine-readable RDF triples has prompted both industry and academia to develop…
In this paper, we present a novel approach -- called WaterFowl -- for the storage of RDF triples that addresses some key issues in the contexts of big data and the Semantic Web. The architecture of our prototype, largely based on the use of…
The sheer increase in volume of RDF data demands efficient solutions for the triple indexing problem, that is devising a compressed data structure to compactly represent RDF triples by guaranteeing, at the same time, fast pattern matching…
