Querying RDF data
RDF Database Systems: Triples Storage and SPARQL Query Processing
Available in print or EBook, this resource professes to "distill everything you need to know to effectively use or design an RDF database". This book [...]
Querying Linked Data
This presentation looks in detail at SPARQL and introduces approaches for querying and updating semantic data. It covers the SPARQL algebra, the SPARQL protocol, and [...]
Towards Reconciling SPARQL and Certain Answers
SPARQL entailment regimes are strongly influenced by the big body of works on ontology-based query answering, notably in the area of Description Logics (DLs). However, [...]
ELITE: An Entailment-based Federated Query Engine for Complete and Transparent Semantic Data Integration
In recent years, the core of the Semantic Web has evolved to a conceptual layer built by a set of ontologies mapped onto data distributed [...]
On the Semantics of SPARQL Queries with Optional Matching under Entailment Regimes
This paper studies the semantics of SPARQL queries with optional matching features under entailment regimes. It argues that the normative semantics may lead to answers [...]
SPARQL Beyond Subgraph Matching
This paper describes the extension of the Semantic Web query language SPARQL by defining the semantics of SPARQL queries under the entailment regimes of RDF, [...]
Schema-Agnostic Query Rewriting in SPARQL 1.1
SPARQL 1.1 supports the use of ontologies to enrich query results with logical entailments, and OWL 2 provides a dedicated fragment OWL QL for this [...]
Foundations of Semantic Web Technologies: SPARQL Entailment Regimes
Slides covering the following topics: SPARQL can now be used with RDF Schema, OWL, and RIF semantics. Entailment Regimes overwrite evaluation of basic graph patterns. [...]
Using SPARQL with RDFS and OWL Entailment
This chapter accompanied the lecture on SPARQL with entailment regimes given at the 7th Reasoning Web Summer School in Galway, Ireland, 2011. It first introduces [...]
SPARQL 1.1 Entailment Regimes
There are different possible ways of defining a basic graph pattern matching extension for an entailment relation. This document specifies one such way for a [...]
