Practical Querying of Temporal Data via OWL 2 QL and SQL: 2011
نویسنده
چکیده
We develop a practical approach to querying temporal data stored in temporal SQL:2011 databases through the semantic layer of OWL 2 QL ontologies. An interval-based temporal query language (TQL), which we propose for this task, is defined via naturally characterizable combinations of temporal logic with conjunctive queries. This foundation warrants well-defined semantics and formal properties of TQL querying. In particular, we show that under certain mild restrictions the data complexity of query answering remains in AC, i.e., as in the usual, nontemporal case. On the practical side, TQL is tailored specifically to offer maximum expressivity while preserving the possibility of reusing standard first-order rewriting techniques and tools for OWL 2 QL.

Querying Temporal Databases via OWL 2 QL
SQL:2011, the most recently adopted version of the SQL query language, has unprecedentedly standardized the representation of temporal data in relational databases. Following the successful paradigm of ontology-based data access, we develop a practical approach to querying the SQL:2011-based temporal data model via the semantic layer of OWL 2 QL. The interval-based temporal query language (TQL)...
متن کاملAnswering SPARQL Queries over Databases under OWL 2 QL Entailment Regime
We present an extension of the ontology-based data access platform Ontop that supports answering SPARQL queries under the OWL 2 QL direct semantics entailment regime for data instances stored in relational databases. On the theoretical side, we show how any input SPARQL query, OWL 2 QL ontology and R2RML mappings can be rewritten to an equivalent SQL query solely over the data. On the practical...
متن کاملOntology-Based Data Access Using Views
The OWL 2 QL profile, which is based on DL-LiteR, has been designed so that query answering is possible using relational database technology via query rewriting. Unfortunately, given a query Q posed in terms of an OWL 2 QL ontology O, the size of the rewritten query, Qo, which can be evaluated directly on the relational database, is worst case exponential w.r.t the size of Q and O [1]. This mea...
متن کاملQuerying OWL 2 QL and Non-monotonic Rules
Answering (conjunctive) queries is an important reasoning task in Description Logics (DL), hence also in highly expressive ontology languages, such as OWL. Extending such ontology languages with rules, such as those expressible in RIF-Core, and further with non-monotonic rules, integrating default negation as described in the RIF-FLD, yields an even more expressive language that allows for mode...
متن کاملBeyond SPARQL under OWL 2 QL Entailment Regime: Rules to the Rescue
SPARQL is the de facto language for querying RDF data, since its standardization in 2008. A new version, called SPARQL 1.1, was released in 2013, with the aim of enriching the 2008 language with reasoning capabilities to deal with RDFS and OWL vocabularies, and a mechanism to express navigation patterns through regular expressions. However, SPARQL 1.1 is not powerful enough for expressing some ...
