Abstract

In this paper we investigate an extension of the XQuery language for querying and reasoning with OWL-style ontologies. The proposed extension incorporates new primitives (i.e. boolean operators) in XQuery for the querying and reasoning with OWL-style triples in such a way that XQuery can be used as query language for the Semantic Web. In addition, we propose a Prolog-based implementation of the extension.
