Transforming RDF via RDF Schema into XML Documents for XPath Query Language

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 jeopardized the scalability of such repositories and frequently renders a repository inefficient for some types of data and queries. This paper proposes the rules that can transform RDF data into XML document. These papers discusses the idea of collection of subject, predicate and object from RDF graph model and this collection is used to transform RDF data into XML documents and store in the XML repository and extract the XML data by the XML query language.
