Benchmarking DAML+OIL Repositories
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a benchmark that facilitates the evaluation of DAML+OIL repositories in a standard and systematic way. This benchmark is intended to evaluate the performance of DAML+OIL repositories with respect to extensional queries over a large data set that commits to a single realistic ontology. It consists of the ontology, customizable synthetic data, a set of test queries, and several performance metrics. Main features of the benchmark include simulated data for the university domain, a repeatable data set that can be scaled to an arbitrary size, and an approach for measuring the degree to which a repository returns complete query answers. We also show a benchmark experiment for the evaluation of DLDB, a DAML+OIL repository that extends a relational database management system with description logic inference capabilities.

Ontologies are central to the architecture of the Semantic Web, the next generation Web that is currently under active development. We have developed ImageSpace, an image ontology creation and annotation tool that features (1) full support for the standard web ontology language DAML+OIL; (2) image ontology creation, image annotation and display in one integrated framework; (3) ontology consiste...
متن کاملThe Generation of DAML+OIL
daml+oil is a new description logic developed for use within the DAML project and as a submission to the upcoming W3C semantic web ontology working group. It is closely based on the oil, but also has strong influences from the existing W3C efforts as well as input from DAML researchers. daml+oil pushes very close to the undecidability barrier. Developing effective reasoners for daml+oil will st...
متن کاملResults of Taxonomic Evaluation of RDF(S) and DAML+OIL ontologies using RDF(S) and DAML+OIL Validation Tools and Ontology Platforms import services
Before using RDF(S) and DAML+OIL ontologies in Semantic Web applications, its content should be evaluated from a knowledge representation point of view. In recent years, some RDF(S) and DAML+OIL ‘checkers’, ‘validators’, and ‘parsers’ have been created and several ontology platforms are able to import RDF(S) and DAML+OIL ontologies. Two are the experiments presented in this paper. The first one...
متن کاملDAML+OIL: A Reason-able Web Ontology Language
Ontologies are set to play a key role in the ”Semantic Web”, extending syntactic interoperability to semantic interoperability by providing a source of shared and precisely defined terms. DAML+OIL is an ontology language specifically designed for use on the web; it exploits existing web standards (XML and RDF), adding the familiar ontological primitives of object oriented and frame based system...
