As OWL(Web Ontology Language) has been selected as a standard ontology description language by W3C, many ontologies have been building and developing in OWL. The lena developed by HP as an Application Programming Interface(API) provides various APIs to develop inference engines as well as storages, and it is widely used for system development. However, the storage model of Jena2 stores most owl documents not acceptable into a single table and it shows low processing performance for a large ontology data set. Most of all, Jena2 storage model does not consider hierarchical structures of classes and properties. In addition, it shows low query processing performance using the hierarchical structure because of many join operations. To solve these issues, this paper proposes an OWL ontology relational database model. The proposed model semantically classifies and stores information such as classes, properties, and instances. It improves the query processing performance by managing hierarchical information in a separate table. This paper also describes the implementation and evaluation results. This paper also shows the experiment and evaluation result and the comparative analysis on both results. The experiment and evaluation show our proposal provides a prominent performance as against Jena2.

Even though there have been many efforts on driver's route recommendation, driver still should get involved to choose the driving path in a manual manner. Uncertain traffic information provided to the driver delays his arrival time and hence may cause diminished economic values. One of the solutions of reducing the uncertainty is to provide various kinds of traffic information, rather than send real-time information. Therefore, as the wireless communication technology improves and at the same time volume of utilizable traffic contents increases in geometrical progression, selecting traffic information based on driver's context in a timely and individual manner will be needed. Hence, the purpose of this paper is to propose a methodology that efficiently sends the rich traffic contents to the personal in-vehicle navigation. To do so, driver preference is modeled and then the recommendation algorithm of traffic information contents was developed using the preference model. Secondly, ontology based traffic situation analyzation method is suggested to automatically inference the noticeable information from the traffic context on driver's route. To show the feasibility of the idea proposed in this paper, an open API service is implemented in consideration of ease of use.

The ultimate purpose of cities is 'the enhancement of quality of life in city'. In order to achieve this, it is required to optimize the Ontology-driven ubiquitous services included in the U-City and UIS of regions and communities and so on. Almost U-Service's contents are related to spatial or temporal extent. So it is important to design Spatio-temporal event schema for efficient access to U-City. There is a rapid change into an urban society in the shape of Ontology-driven ubiquitous services in which a content on a region or an incident is newly reconstructed through various ideas with the influence of the ubiquitous environment.

Recently, with the advent of the Big Data era, we have gained the capability of acquiring vast amounts of knowledge from various fields. The collected knowledge is expressed by well-formed formula and in particular, OWL, a standard language of ontology, is a typical form of well-formed formula. The symbolic reasoning is actively being studied using large amounts of ontology data for extracting intrinsic information. However, most studies of this reasoning support the restricted rule expression based on Description Logic and they have limited applicability to the real world. Moreover, knowledge management for inaccurate information is required, since knowledge inferred from the wrong information will also generate more incorrect information based on the dependencies between the inference rules. Therefore, this paper suggests that the SWAT, knowledge management system should be combined with the SWRL (Semantic Web Rule Language) reasoning based on ATMS (Assumption-based Truth Maintenance System). Moreover, this system was constructed by combining with SWRL reasoning and ATMS for managing large ontology data based on the distributed In-memory framework. Based on this, the ATMS monitoring system allows users to easily detect and correct wrong knowledge. We used the LUBM (Lehigh University Benchmark) dataset for evaluating the suggested method which is managing the knowledge through the retraction of the wrong SWRL inference data on large data.

현재의 웹이 HTML을 바탕으로 인간 사용자와의 인터페이스에 초점을 맞추고 있는데 비하여, 차세대 웹은 XML 및 XML 기반 각종 표준들을 바탕으로 소프트웨어 에이전트와의 인터페이스에 초점을 맞추어 나가고 있다. 차세대 웹에서 소프트웨어 에이전트의 두뇌 역할을 수행하기 위하여 추론엔진은 차세대 웹의 표준 언어인 시맨틱 웹(Semantic Web)을 충실히 이해할 수 있어야 한다. 이를 위한 기초 작업의 일환으로 OWL(Web Ontology Language)과 RuleML(Rule Markup Language)이 W3C에 제안된 바 있다. 본 연구에서는 SWRL을 규칙 표현 방법으로 사용하고, OWL을 사실 표현 방법으로 사용하는 역방향 추론엔진인 SMART-B(SeMantic web Agent Reasoning Tools - Backward chaining inference engine)을 개발하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 SWRL 기반 역방향 추론을 위한 요구 기능을 분석하고, 기존 역방향 추론 알고리즘에 차세대 시맨틱 웹을 요구 기능을 반영한 역방향 추론 알고리즘을 설계하였다. 또한, 유비쿼터스 환경에서의 각종 플랫폼의 독립성과 이식성을 확보하고 기기 간의 성능 차이를 극복할 수 있도록 사실 베이스 및 규칙 베이스의 관리도구와 역방향 추론 엔진 등을 Java 프로그래밍 언어를 이용하여 단위 컴포넌트의 형태로 개발 중에 있다.

We present a personalized clothing recommender system - one that mines association rules from transaction described in ontologies and infers a recommendation from the rules. The recommender system can forecast frequently changing trends of clothing using the Onto-Apriori algorithm, and it makes appropriate recommendations for each users possible through the inference marked as meta nodes. We simulates the rule generator and the inferential search engine of the system with focus on accuracy and efficiency, and our results validate the system.

Metadata and ontology can be used to retrieve related information through the inference mure accurately and simply on the Semantic Web. RDF and RDF Schema are general languages for representing metadata and ontology. An enormous number of keywords on the Semantic Web are very important to make practical applications of the Semantic Web because most users prefer to search with keywords. In this paper, we consider a resource as a unit of query results. And we classily queries with keyword conditions into three patterns and propose indexing techniques for keyword-search considering both metadata and ontology. Our index maintains resources that contain keywords indirectly using conceptual relationships between resources as well as resources that contain keywords directly. So, if user wants to search resources that contain a certain keyword, all resources are retrieved using our keyword index. We propose a structure of table for storing RDF Schema information that is labeled using some simple methods.

Context-aware technologies for ubiquitous computing are necessary to study the representation of gathered context-information appropriately, the understanding of user's intention using context-information, and the offer of pertinent services for users. In this paper, we propose the WS-CAM(Web Services based Context-Aware Middleware) framework for context-aware computing. WS-CAM provides ample power of expression and inference mechanisms to various context-information using an ontology-based context model. We also consider that WS-CAM is the middleware-independent structure to adopt web services with characteristic of loosely coupling as a matter of communication of context-information. In this paper, we describe a scenario for lecture services based on the ubiquitous computing e e e e e e to verify the utilization of WS-CAM We also show an example of middleware-independent system expansion to display the merits of web-based services. WS-CAM for lecture services represented context-information itodomaits as OWL-based ontology model effectively, and we confirmed the information is inferred to high level context-information by user-defined rules. We also confirmed the context-information is transferred to application services middleware-independently using various web methods provided by web services.

The context aware service is the service to provide useful information to the users by recognizing surroundings around people who receive the service via computer based on computing and communication, and by conducting self-decision. But CAS(Context Awareness System) shows the weak point of small-scale context awareness processing capacity due to restricted mobile function under the current mobile environment, memory space, and inference cost increment. In this paper, we propose a mobile cloud context system with using Google App Engine based on PaaS(Platform as a Service) in order to get context service in various mobile devices without any subordination to any specific platform. Inference design method of the proposed system makes use of knowledge-based framework with semantic inference that is presented by SWRL rule and OWL ontology and Jess with rule-based inference engine. As well as, it is intended to shorten the context service reasoning time with mapping the regular reasoning of SWRL to Jess reasoning engine by connecting the values such as Class, Property and Individual which are regular information in the form of SWRL to Jess reasoning engine via JessTab plug-in in order to overcome the demerit of queries reasoning method of SparQL in semantic search which is a previous reasoning method.

본 연구는 시맨틱웹 응용의 중심 기술인 웹 온톨로지의 표현과 추론을 위해 서술 논리와 규칙언어를 기반으로하는 웹 온톨로지 모델링 방법을 제안한다. 현재 웹 온톨로지 표현 언어인 OWL DL은 서술 논리에 근거하여 표현되는 것이나, 기계나 온톨로지 공학자가 OWL로 기술된 온톨로지를 직관적으로 이해하고 공유할 수 있는 형식적이고 명시적인 온톨로지의 지식 표현은 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구는 시맨틱웹이 목적하는 웹 온톨로지 구축을 위한 웹 온톨로지 모델링 방법으로 웹 온톨로지 모델링 계층을 제안하고, 제안된 각 계층에 따라 서술 논리의 TBox와 ABox의 구조와 SWRL을 기반으로 지식을 표현하는 웹 온톨로지 모델링 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 웹 온톨로지 모델링 방법의 성능 검증을 위해 제안 방법에 따라 웹 온톨로지를 구축하였고, SPARQL과 TopBraid의 DL Inference를 이용하여 구축된 웹 온톨로지의 성능을 검증하였다.
