In recent years, RDF partitioning schemes have been studied for the effective distributed storage and management of large-scale RDF data. In this paper, we propose an RDF dynamic partitioning scheme to support load balancing in dynamic environments where the RDF data is continuously inserted and updated. The proposed scheme creates clusters and sub-clusters according to the frequency of the RDF data used by queries to set graph partitioning criteria. We partition the created clusters and sub-clusters by considering the workloads and data sizes for the servers. Therefore, we resolve the data concentration of a specific server, resulting from the continuous insertion and update of the RDF data, in such a way that the load is distributed among servers in dynamic environments. It is shown through performance evaluation that the proposed scheme significantly improves the query processing time over the existing scheme.

In this paper, we propose a system which automatically generates SHACL schemas to describe and validate RDF knowledge graphs constructed by RML mappings. Unlike existing studies, the proposed system generates the schemas based on not only RML mapping rules but also metadata extracted from RML mapping input data in various formats such as CSV, JSON, XML or databases. Therefore, our schemas include the constraints on data type, string length, value range and cardinality, which were not present in the existing schemas. And we solves the problem with "repeated properties" which overlooked in existing studies. Through a conformance test consisting of 297 cases, we show that the proposed system generates correct constraints for the graphs. The proposed system can contribute to automation of the tedious and error-prone existing manual validation processes.

With the growth of AI technology, the scale of Knowledge Graphs continues to be expanded. Knowledge Graphs are mainly expressed as RDF representations that consist of connected triples. Many RDF storages compress and transform RDF triples into the condensed IDs. However, if we try to transform a large scale of RDF triples, it occurs the high processing time and memory overhead because it needs to search the large ID mapping table. In this paper, we propose the method of converting RDF triples using Hash-based ID mapping tables with MapReduce, which is the software framework with a parallel, distributed algorithm. Our proposed method not only transforms RDF triples into Integer-based IDs, but also improves the conversion speed and memory overhead. As a result of our experiment with the proposed method for LUBM, the size of the dataset is reduced by about 3.8 times and the conversion time was spent about 106 seconds.

As the internet and computer technology are developed, there is a need for service of traditional culture that can effectively search and create culture, history, and tradition-related materials in online contents. In this paper, we developed an RDF-based ontology retrieval service platform and verified usability and validity. This platform is divided into triple search, keyword search, network graph search, story search and management, curation management module. Based on this, the search results can be visualized based on the relationship between data, network graph search and story search can be used to easily understand the relationship between the keywords. An platform evaluation was conducted for verification, and it was evaluated that an intelligent search that can easily identify the relationship between information and shorten the analysis and search time than the existing search function.

As an effort to secure Semantic Web, in this paper, we introduce an RDF access authorization model based on an ontology hierarchy and an RDF triple pattern. In addition, we apply the authorization model to RDF query validation for approved access authorizations. A subscribed SPARQL or RQL query, which has RDF triple patterns, can be denied or granted according to the corresponding access authorizations which have an RDF triple pattern. In order to efficiently perform the query validation process, we first analyze some primary authorization conflict conditions under RDF subsumption inference, and then we introduce an efficient query validation algorithm using the conflict conditions and Dewey graph labeling technique. Through experiments, we also show that the proposed validation algorithm provides a reasonable validation time and when data and authorizations increase it has scalability.

As the information of the internet increased, importance of sematic web for collecting and integration of these informations to support decision making of some group or ordinary people are growing as well. Basis structure that composes semantic web is ontology and languages like XML, RDF/RDF schema and OWL are basis means that compose ontology schema. When composes and manages Ontology schema, one of the important consideration point is that schema is changed as times go by. Therefore, change of domain of schema, change of data concept or change of relation between resource etc. are reflected in the ontology system. In this study, we suggest semantic web schema management skill in terms of version management. We categorized version change forms and created version graph for checking of version transition. With created version graph, we define transitivity rule and propose schema tag for detail application which enables extending of applicable version schema.

RDF is the base ontology model which is used in Semantic Web defined by W3C. OWL expands the RDF base model by providing various vocabularies for defining much more ontology relationships. Recently Jain and Farkas have suggested an RDF access control model based on RDF triple. Their research point is to introduce an authorization conflict problem by RDF inference which must be considered in RDF ontology data. Due to the problem, we cannot adopt XML access control model for RDF, although RDF is represented by XML. However, Jain and Farkas did not define the authorization propagation over the RDF upper/lower ontology concepts when an RDF authorization is specified. The reason why the authorization specification should be defined clearly is that finally, the authorizatin conflict is the problem between the authorization propagation in specifying an authorization and the authorization propagation in inferencing authorizations. In this article, first we define an RDF access authorization specification based on RDF triple in detail. Next, based on the definition, we analyze the authoriztion conflict problem by RDF inference in detail. Next, we briefly introduce a method which can quickly find an authorization conflict by using graph labeling techniques. This method is especially related with the subsumption relationship based inference. Finally, we present a comparison analysis with Jain and Farkas' study, and some experimental results showing the efficiency of the suggested conflict detection method.

Since RDF (Resource Description Framework) triples are modeled as graph, we cannot directly adopt existing solutions in relational databases and XML technology. In order to store, index, and query Linked Data more efficiently, we propose a convergence indexing method combined R*-tree and K-dimensional trees. This method uses a hybrid storage system based on HDD (Hard Disk Drive) and SSD (Solid State Drive) devices, and a separated filter and refinement index structure to filter unnecessary data and further refine the immediate result. We perform performance comparisons based on three standard join retrieval algorithms. The experimental results demonstrate that our method has achieved remarkable performance compared to other existing methods such as Quad and Darq.

Recently, the demand for a QA (Question Answering) system for human-machine communication has increased. Among the QA systems, a closed domain QA system that can handle spatial-related questions is called GeoQA. In this study, a new type of graph database, LPG (Labeled Property Graph) was used to overcome the limitations of the RDF (Resource Description Framework) based database, which was mainly used in the GeoQA field. In addition, GraphQL (Graph Query Language), an API-type query language, is introduced to address the fact that the LPG query language is not standardized and the GeoQA system may depend on specific products. In this study, database was built so that answers could be retrieved when spatial-related questions were entered. Each data was obtained from the national spatial information portal and local data open service. The spatial relationships between each spatial objects were calculated in advance and stored in edge form. The user's questions were first converted to GraphQL through FOL (First Order Logic) format and delivered to the database through the GraphQL server. The LPG used in the experiment is Neo4j, the graph database that currently has the highest market share, and some of the built-in functions and QGIS were used for spatial calculations. As a result of building the system, it was confirmed that the user's question could be transformed, processed through the Apollo GraphQL server, and an appropriate answer could be obtained from the database.

Although RDF ontologies might be expressed in XML tree model, existing methods for protection of XML documents are not suitable for securing RDF ontologies. The graph style and inference feature of RDF demands a new security model development. Driven by this goal, this paper proposes a new query-oriented model for the RDF ontology access control. The proposed model rewrites a user query using a three-layered ontology view. The proposal resolves the problem that the existing approaches should generate inference models depending on inference rules. Accessible ontology concepts and instances which a user can visit are defined as ontology views, and the inference view defined for controling an inference query enables a controlled inference capability for the user. This paper defines the three-layered view and describes algorithms for query rewriting according to the views. An implemented prototype with its system architecture is shown. Finally, the experiment and comparative evaluation result of the proposal and the previous approach is described.
