Extending XML Query Language Xcerpt by Ontology Queries.
Abstract
The paper addresses a problem of combining XML querying with
ontology reasoning. We present an extension of a rule-based XML query and
transformation language Xcerpt. The extension allows to interface an ontology
reasoner from Xcerpt programs. In this way querying can employ the ontology
information, for instance to filter out semantically irrelevant answers. The
approach employs an existing Xcerpt engine and ontology reasoner; no
modifications are required. We present the semantics of extended Xcerpt and an
implementation algorithm. Communication between Xcerpt programs and ontology
reasoner is based on DIG interface.
