Mapping of SQL Relational Schemata to OWL Ontologies
نویسندگان
چکیده
A novel approach is proposed. This approach maps a relational database defined by a relational schema to an ontology. The ontology has a hierarchical structure, and it is no longer “impaired” by optimization and bad database design of the relational schema. The approach can be used for migrating HTML pages (especially those that are dynamically generated from a relational database) to the ontology-based Semantic Web. Key-Words: Relational databases, ontologies, SQL, OWL, Web, Semantic Web

TRANS: Schema-Aware Mapping of OWL Ontologies into Relational Databases
An ontology is an explicit specification of shared conceptualization. The Web Ontology Language (OWL) is a family of knowledge representation languages for authoring ontologies, and is endorsed by the World Wide Web Consortium. The main operation on ontologies is to query them and to store them so as to answer queries efficiently. By mapping ontologies to relational databases, we can leverage t...
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 کاملUse of OWL and SWRL for Semantic Relational Database Translation
General purpose query interfaces to relational databases can expose vast amounts of content to the Semantic Web. In this paper, we discuss Automapper, a tool that automatically generates data source and mapping ontologies using OWL and SWRL. We also describe the use of these ontologies in our Semantic Distributed Query architecture, an implementation for mapping RDF queries to disparate data so...

Ontology Based Data Access (OBDA) enables access to relational data with a complex structure through ontologies as conceptual domain models. A key component of an OBDA system are mappings between the schematic elements in the ontology and their correspondences in the relational schema. Today, in existing OBDA systems these mappings typically need to be compiled by hand. In this paper we present...
