A Tool for Storing OWL Using Database Technology
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a tool that helps developers to design and implement storage models for OWL ontologies. This tool uses xml both to represent the knowledge given by the ontology, and define the rules that generate the storage model. It presents a graphical interface that helps developers to use it. The storage models created by this tool will be used in our research studies.

Enhancing Connection between Ontologies and Databases with Owl 2 Concepts and Sparql
The goal of the paper is to present the enhanced database schema for storing ontologies considering new features of OWL 2 and possibilities of querying these ontologies using SPARQL. The growing size of ontologies and the scope of their applications require the effective means for storing ontology data that relational databases already have approved. Many existing ontology reasoning tools are u...
متن کاملMapping of Owl Ontology Concepts to Rdb Schemas
Modern technologies of Semantic Web, the growing complexity of information systems, the needs of knowledge bases and smart Web agents require conceptual models to gain an improved form of semantic knowledge models – i.e. ontology. Currently, the main technique of storing ontology is based on files containing descriptions of ontology in RDF/RDFS or OWL. On the other hand, the relational database...
متن کاملMapping between Relational Databases and OwL Ontologies: an example
This paper shows how relational databases can be used to define a bridging mechanism between relational database and OWL ontology. We demonstrate on a simple yet completely elaborated example how mapping information stored in relational tables can be processed using SQL to generate RDF triples for OWL class and property instances. This technology provides the means to use relational database as...
متن کاملTransforming Ontology Representation from Owl to Relational Database
The current work has arisen with respect to the growing importance of ontology modelling in Information Systems development. Due to emerging technologies of Semantic Web, it is desirable to use for this purpose the Web Ontology Language OWL. From the other side, the relational database technology has ensured the best facilities for storing, updating and manipulating the information of problem d...
متن کاملStoring OWL Ontologies in SQL Relational Databases
Relational databases are often used as a basis for persistent storage of ontologies to facilitate rapid operations such as search and retrieval, and to utilize the benefits of relational databases management systems such as transaction management, security and integrity control. On the other hand, there appear more and more OWL files that contain ontologies. Therefore, this paper proposes to ex...
