Abstract

This paper presents the design and implementation of a service-based RDF database middleware suite called DAI-RDF, an extension of the OGSA-DAI middlewarewhich currently supports relational and XML databases. DAI-RDF provides various RDF data processing activities including SPARQL query language, ontological primitives, and reasoning functions. Since DAI-RDF is based on service-based grid architecture, it is easy to use to support large-scale distributed semantic grid applications. Performance evaluation, including evaluation of the reasoning functions included, shows the usefulness of the system.
