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…

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…

Rapid growth of documents, web pages, and other types of text content is a huge challenge for the modern content management systems. One of the problems in the areas of information storage and retrieval is the lacking of semantic data.…

The vision of the Semantic Web is becoming a reality with billions of RDF triples being distributed over multiple queryable end-points (e.g. Linked Data). Although there has been a body of work on RDF triples persistent storage, it seems…

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…

RDF triplestores and property graph databases are two approaches for data management which are based on modeling, storing, and querying graph-like data. In spite of such common principles, they present special features that complicate the…

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…

This paper presents inference rules for Resource Description Framework (RDF), RDF Schema (RDFS) and Web Ontology Language (OWL). Our formalization is based on Notation 3 Logic, which extended RDF by logical symbols and created Semantic Web…

In this paper we define a new algorithm to convert an input relational database to an output set of RDF triples. The algorithm can be used to e.g. load CSV data into a financial OWL ontology such as FIBO. The algorithm takes as input a set…

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…

Although the intention of RDF is to provide an open, minimally constraining way for representing information, there exists an increasing number of applications for which guarantees on the structure and values of an RDF data set become…

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…

Despite great advances in the area of Semantic Web, industry rather seldom adopts Semantic Web technologies and their storage and query concepts. Instead, relational databases (RDB) are often deployed to store business-critical data, which…

We investigate the problem of aligning two RDF databases, an essential problem in understanding the evolution of ontologies. Our approaches address three fundamental challenges: 1) the use of "blank" (null) names, 2) ontology changes in…

Ontology-based data access (OBDA) is a novel paradigm facilitating access to relational data, realized by linking data sources to an ontology by means of declarative mappings. DL-Lite_R, which is the logic underpinning the W3C ontology…

SHACL and OWL are two prominent W3C standards for managing RDF data. These languages share many features, but they have one fundamental difference: OWL, designed for inferring facts from incomplete data, makes the open-world assumption,…

Ontologies and automated reasoning are the building blocks of the Semantic Web initiative. Derivation rules can be included in an ontology to define derived concepts, based on base concepts. For example, rules allow to define the extension…

With the ever-growing generation of data for the Semantic Web comes an increasing demand for this data to be made available to non-semantic Web experts. One way of achieving this goal is to translate the languages of the Semantic Web into…

RESTful services on the Web expose information through retrievable resource representations that represent self-describing descriptions of resources, and through the way how these resources are interlinked through the hyperlinks that can be…

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…
