Abstract

At present, Resource Description Framework (RDF) documents and schemas (RDFS) are used to describe information in the semantic web. Many research works regard the RDF/RDFS documents as databases and proposed data manipulations for them. This research paper takes a different approach. In order to easily manipulate the database, RDF/RDFS documents are transformed into relational database format so that relational languages, data management and business intelligence facilities which are readily available can be exploited. A conceptual meta schema that describes RDF/RDFS documents and the corresponding meta table are presented together with illustrated examples. ©2007 IEEE.
