Abstract:
The Semantic Web is an extension of the
current Web that will allow to find, share, and
combine information more easily. To harvest
such power requires robust and scalable data
repositories that can store RDF data. Most of the
existing RDF storage techniques rely on relation
model and relational database technologies for
these tasks. The mis-match between the graph
model of the RDF data and the rigid 2D tables of
relational model jeopardizes the scalability of
such repositories and frequently renders a
repository inefficient for some types of data and
queries. In this paper, we propose a system that
can store RDF data in the XML repository and
perform the efficient XML query processing. We
discuss the basic idea of serializing RDF data
into RDF/XML and mapping of RDF/XML to
XML document and then algorithm for the
efficient XML query processing to the
performance of XML query evaluation.
