The Semantic Web, which is intended to establish a
machine-understandable Web, is currently changing from being an
emerging trend to a technology used in complex real-world
applications. A number of standards and techniques have been
developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), e.g., the
Resource Description Framework (RDF), which provides a general
method for conceptual descriptions for Web resources, and SPARQL,
an RDF querying language. Recent examples of large RDF data with
billions of facts include the UniProt comprehensive catalog of
protein sequence, function and annotation data, the RDF data
extracted from Wikipedia, and Princeton University's WordNet.
Clearly, querying performance has become a key issue for Semantic
Web applications. In his book, Groppe details various aspects of
high-performance Semantic Web data management and query processing.
His presentation fills the gap between Semantic Web and database
books, which either fail to take into account the performance
issues of large-scale data management or fail to exploit the
special properties of Semantic Web data models and queries. After a
general introduction to the relevant Semantic Web standards, he
presents specialized indexing and sorting algorithms, adapted
approaches for logical and physical query optimization,
optimization possibilities when using the parallel database
technologies of today's multicore processors, and visual and
embedded query languages. Groppe primarily targets researchers,
students, and developers of large-scale Semantic Web applications.
On the complementary book webpage readers will find additional
material, such as an online demonstration of a query engine, and
exercises, and their solutions, that challenge their comprehension
of the topics presented.
