The author of this post was unable to find many good examples of the basic actions required to manipulate graphs using SPARQL, so he pieced together some example code. The following Java code illustrates how to create a graph, insert data, delete data and edit data. It uses Jena; however, the application logic is not dependent on the particular Graph Store implementation that is used.
