Abstract
The Resource Description Framework (RDF) and RDF Schema (RDFS) recommended by World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) provide a flexible model for semantically representing data on the web. With the widespread acceptance of RDF(S) (RDF and RDFS for short), a large number of RDF(S) is available. Databases play an important role in managing RDF(S). However, there are few studies on using object-relational databases to store RDF(S). In this paper, the authors propose the formal definitions of RDF(S) model and object-relational databases model. Then they introduce the approach for storing RDF(S) in object-relational databases based on the formal definitions. They implement a prototype system to demonstrate the feasibility of the approach and test the performance and semantic retention ability of this prototype system with the benchmark dataset.
